Clothes to share

The boys stayed with Mom today. When she got Conner dressed this morning at our house, she grabbed a shirt out of his drawer. Funny enough, this shirt looks like it fits but it's actually a 5T that belongs to Evan. Conner doesn't turn 2 until the end of March. He's getting too big, too fast!

Valentine's Day Cards

Tonight we sat down and Evan wrote his name on 21 Valentine's Day cards for his teachers and fellow classmates. He did exceptionally well considering he just turned 4 in December. I'm so proud of my little man!

Check out his concentration! He also insisted on using a pen.

One of the finished products!

Fire!

On Friday morning, I received two text messages from Mike. Each message was one of the above pictures, in front of our house, and with no explanation. I called Mike and asked what was going on. He proceeds to tell me that Conner knocked over a candle and lit the house on fire. As I mildly freak, he says he's just kidding. One of our neighbors fell and called Gwinnett County to come visit. Luckily, no one is hurt at my house and my kids enjoyed seeing the fire truck and ambulance in front of our house!

Fun with Firehouse Subs hats

We met Andrea, David and Wesley for a late lunch today and the boys all got hats at the Firehouse subs. Evan is enjoying his more than Conner but they look so cute!

Learning to knit

My card reader is acting up so I couldn't upload a pic of the kids easily. I have taught myself the basics of knitting in the past few days. Here's my progress so far. I had started another project, which was slightly smaller than this, but Conner pulled the needle out. I had to scrap that and start over. I still missed a few stitches but I'm learning!

We're ready for our close ups!

Getting a late start on the photo 365

Here goes nothing! I will try and update each day.

Nap Time

Snack Time

Soccer!

Funny enough, we're on the Tigers team again. We were also Tigers with T-ball. We practice every Wednesday and have a game every Saturday. Evan says soccer is hard work, but it's fun to watch him play.

This is what Conner does at most practices. He tries to escape. I think he just wants to play too!

Such a cute picture of the team!

My absolute favorite!

Today was picture day! Cheese!

More T-Ball

A great mom who had three boys on our t-ball team sent me pictures of Evan from June. The pictures are fantastic and I'm thrilled to have them. I am already working on a print with a few images to send to family. Hopefully it won't take me until next June to send out.

This is the face I got a lot! T-ball was a slight struggle!

My all-star!

One of our favorite activities was chewing on the glove

The lone picture of Evan catching the ball. It did happen more than once!

Conner at the party!

and the brownie bite cake I got for the team party. It was yummy!

My New Business Adventure!

I have decided to become an independent consultant for Thirty-One Gifts. Amanda came over and did a party for me on July 9 and it was so much fun! This is definitely different from when I was doing Tupperware. I love the items and would love to share them with you...even if you are out of town! We can always do a catalog show. You can also order from my website, especially if you need a great personalized gift. Check it out at my website.

My little t-ball star

Evan started t-ball towards the end of May. We are only playing games until the end of June but it's a great introduction. These pictures are from May, during the two weeks of practice, so they're a little old.

Playtown Suwanee

Evan just loves the place he calls "Cow Slide." He calls Playtown Suwanee Cow Slide because there are pained cows around the property and it has slides. We go there at least once every two weeks. It's shaded and a great place!

Lunch?

The joys of static!

Evan pushing Conner

Cheese!

Thumbs up!

Having Fun!

There's always time for bubbles.

Even Conner can join in

and we love to sit on the counter tops

and take pictures with Mommy

and Daddy

Time for an update

Conner is almost a 1 year old! We have one more short week. He isn't walking yet but he gets around the house pretty fast and never were two brothers closer.

Evan is happy to share his Thomas train with Conner. Who said it isn't made for two?

Evan also lets Conner take rides by himself, with assistance

Best Friends!

And here's a shot from tonight. Conner climbed into Evan's chair so we had to pull the other one out. Now they are kicked back in their red chairs drinking milk. One more week until party time!
