Weekend Project

Removing the screen door and adding windows. My little helper Thans wearing his safety gear!

Playing outside today

The boys have been enjoying the nice weather that we've had. After 2 days of rain they were ready to be outside again today (as was I)!

(yes Elijah is wearing a button down shirt, tie and sportscoat for play. It's his favorite outfit right now. lol )

He's the best dressed preschooler.

One of Elijah's favorite hobbies is coloring

Nathaniel wanted to dress up like a fireman. I need to find him fireman rainboots in his size apparently.

Watching a rain storm come through last week. Nathaniel was having his lunch and Elijah pushed his chair over to the door.

ice cream!

We've been doing a few charts to help with the stubborn 3 year old behaviors. The other day Elijah filled in his first of the charts - surprisingly it was the 'No Time Outs' chart. His request for his prize was ice cream. Of course Nathaniel gets a free ride for the treat.

Mr. Creative made breakfast over the weekend.

Last week the boys and I enjoyed the beautiful weather we had! We went for walks around the neighborhood, played at the park and made a trip to the zoo. The zoo was a real zoo that day with so many people there and of course the batteries in my camera were dead so i only got a few pictures.

Breaking in the wagon Santa brought nathaniel

Mommy's little heartbreaker

Nathaniel up to no good. Trying to figure out how to unstack the chairs so he could climb on them.

Elijah before school on Wednesday. He had to wear a button down shirt so he could be like daddy.

Finally got around to uploading some pictures/video last night.

Elijah slept a little later than usual today. When he woke up he walked in the kitchen and said "Oh sorry, my alarm didn't go off". He doesn't have an alarm in his room.
