Kitty Pics

Luna always looks like she's sitting on her throne.  She has the condescending look down to a science.  She almost looks bored as she sits where she is definitely not allowed to be sitting. 

Meanwhile, it looks like she's stuck, but Stella is in there by choice.  She finds the oddest places to hang out.  

Winding Down

 Everything's trickling home from school and they're basically on all fun mode.  Monday was field day and I'm not sure what else they're doing.  

I liked BB's fractions robot and Owl.

Little Man's Gifted teacher sent me a picture of him presenting a project in class.  I was glad for the little glimpse into his day.  He mostly talks to me about side anecdotes and not what he's learning about.  I hear a lot about the random songs he sings in class.  

He's 12!

My Little Introvert didn't want a party.  He said to use the money from the party to buy him a large Lego set.  We sent him on a scavenger hunt of clues to find it first thing in the morning.

Requested birthday foods: pancakes with buttermilk syrup for breakfast and baked ravioli and glazed carrots for dinner. 

It was pretty much a given that he wanted a chocolate fudge cake, and he added cookie two step ice cream.

Happy birthday, Little Man!

Pinwheel Finish

 There's nothing like an early delivery to force me to finish a quilt.  Little David came 2 weeks early.  I really should have had the quilt done by now, but I haven't been doing a lot of sewing lately.  I was bringing them dinner this evening, so I hurried and finished the quilt to give it to them at the same time. 

Fun Weekend

 Little Man went camping with the guys from church again this weekend.  I love the pictures he sent me.  He was in charge of cutting the onions for the fajitas.  I'm grateful he came home to me with all his fingers, because he doesn't help in the kitchen a whole lot.  It was soggy, and it rained during their hike, but he had a great time.

BB had his final soccer game.  They won 5 -2 and BB got a goal.  He was pretty happy.  Little Lady also had her final volleyball match.  She spent the afternoon with her bestie re-watching their game.  Apparently it's very entertaining.  

It's been fun to see such improvement this season for BB and Little Lady.  It was a great weekend, and all the kiddos had a lovely time. 

Halfsies

 It's a big week for Little Guy.  He also celebrated his half birthday.  He decided on a strawberry jello poke cake.  It was so cute.  He chose to give half of his dessert to our vet, because "he fixed Luna's leg."

We also went to a playground for the first time since Covid hit.  It almost felt weird being there.  Little Guy loved it though.

Our Mini-Graduate

Little Guy graduated from preschool yesterday!  I'm having a hard time wrapping my brain around the fact that he's finally finishing up and headed to kindergarten in the Fall.  His teachers put him in the center for the presentation, because they said he's going to be a performer some day.  They loved that he sang so enthusiastically.  They're not wrong.  Hahaha.

He loved Mrs. Matthews & Mrs. Baldwin.

He's the class of 2034.  That sounds like a million years away, but I have a feeling it will be here a lot quicker than expected.

Cousin Time

The kiddos were beyond thrilled their cousins stayed with us for a few days.  The Torgersons are moving across the country and luckily, we're right on their route out West.  Little Lady was in girl heaven.  Her room became a Lego and American Doll Girl haven.

They also had lots of Barbie time.

The kids were really sad when they left, but now that they live closer we're hoping we'll see them more.
