Oh, Tommy boy!

Tommy has decided that he doesn't like to ride in the truck anymore, he likes to drive it. He likes to push the pedal and have the power to make the truck go, the problem is that he doesn't understand the steering wheel function. I found a solution one day by turning the steering wheel, he can drive in circles, and I don't have to keep saving him from crashing! Enjoy the pictures of my cute kiddo!

A 4 Year Old's Personality!

I LOVE THIS AGE! They are old enough to communicate, be curious, teachable, funny, helpful, without being a belligerent adolescent. I discovered Josh cutting on a box with a butter knife. Upon investigating, I discovered that he wanted to make himself into a robot. So we spent an afternoon making Josh into a robot!
Meet my little Michelangelo. When I came to check on him in the bath tub, I found him stretched out on his tummy in the water drawing masterpieces on the sides of the tub. If you look close, you can see the rainbow with a pot of gold and a leprechaun.
Here, Josh is giving his 'baby' a ride on his shoulders.

Midas's touch

I don't often post about Mike's business, even though it is where he spends most of his time. Look at him glow! This is a classic picture, portraying perfectly how everything he touches seems to turn to gold!
How grateful I am that I married a man who does what it takes to provide for his family, no matter how hot or cold it is!
Meet Mike's stripper! (the only kind endorsed by the wife) Thank you Mike, for being such a wonderful man.

We love the PARK

Some cute pictures from the park over a couple of months.

Preschool graduation

May saw the end of the days of preschool. We went on a couple of field trips to farms, had a field day at Josh's teacher's house and had a mini picnic and graduation ceremony at the park for the boys in Mommy preschool. He misses preschool and asks if he is going today and where each of the kids are at! I am glad he had such a good experience. It didn't matter to me if he learned his colors or alphabet. He did learn social skills of sharing, and communication, team work, to have joy, to choose to be kind even when others are not, to do things that are hard, and so many of the other lessons that I needed him to learn! So for me, we reached our goals!
