Ethan's First Day on the Bus

Last week was Ethan's first week on the bus and he LOVED it! In fact, every day he likes it more and more. Now, when he sees the bus coming down the street he starts walking out to the street - long before it gets to us - and I have to hold him back!

The picture of the flowers is just because it makes me so happy to look at. I scored a great deal at the store (they were on sale for $3 a bunch) and they are my favorite flower, so I couldn't resist!

Here is Ethan waiting for the bus the first day.



I wanted to get Ethan climbing up the steps but he was too fast for me. So I just got a couple of him on the top of the steps. But he really has mastered climbing up them.




Here is Ethan all buckled up. The bus driver tells me everyday that he gets buckled up and then starts waving out the window. It's so cute to see him in the bus window. I can't believe how big he has gotten.





When the bus started leaving, Wyatt started waving to it, but again I was too slow to catch it on film. So here he is watching the bus leave and then looking at me. I think Wyatt and I will start going for walks after we get Ethan on the bus, now that the weather is nice and spring-like!




Above is Jack waiting for Ethan to get off the bus in the afternoon. He was so excited to see him and ask him about his day and the bus ride. Now that Ethan is walking and able to play with him more, they are really bonding and doing brotherly things together.

Below is Wyatt snuggling with Daddy. So cute!



Finally, I'm posting another picture of one of my Willow House pieces, simply because it looked so good! I hosted a team meeting on Tuesday and used my Gramercy Stand to hold Petit Fours on top and the plates on the bottom. It looked so elegant I just had to share. Anyone that hosts tea parties needs this piece!!

Thanks for sharing Ethan's big day with us!

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was...

My Week

 Jason left last Saturday (the 4th) for his two week Army Annual Training and we sent him off with a nighttime treat before he left.  I love this photo of my boys, as they all look so happy and the small ones look so grown up - especially Ethan.  We couldn't pry that cup of frozen yogurt away from him!!  And, as usual, when Jason leaves all hell breaks loose.  Tuesday night we were all getting ready for bed and I was getting Ethan and Wyatt out of the bathtub when Wyatt slipped and banged his chin on the edge.  Normally Wyatt gets out first but this time I got Ethan and that just drove him crazy.  He was jumping up and down and as soon as I told him to stop he slipped.  I thought he had just cut his lip or his gums as I only saw blood but then he titled his head up and I saw his chin - too much of the inside of the chin.  I got him dried off, and kept a washcloth to his chin but knew I needed to get him to the ER.  But the last th...

Master Closet Overhaul

 We have this ridiculously large walk-in closet in our master bedroom and over time it has been overtaken with STUFF. So I decided I was tired of looking at the mess and it was time to clean it out and up.  Take a look...  I can't believe it went from this... To this!  I love walking in here now and actually find myself looking for reasons to go into my closet.  Along with just weeding out old clothes and items I no longer wore or needed (you should see the pile of stuff that was donated!) I made some changes to the room too.   One of them was my shoe racks. I've long wanted a tall shoe rack to go alongside the built in shelves but I knew it would never get off my husband's to-do list so I took matters into my own hands!!  It's not exactly what I had envisioned but it works and I'm happy with it. Thanks Target for the shelves.  Over the past few years I have developed a deep love for scarves and now own several....
