One with Pictures!

Since my last two posts were heavy on talk and light on pictures, I figured I'd reverse it for this post.
For her birthday, Josie got a cute little pram stroller and several dolls. She loves babies, so this has been perfect for her. Josie doesn't really understand the concept of one baby in the stroller and she is often seen pushing around a stroller full of naked babies (because there is a rule somewhere that states that when you are a little girl, none of your dolls can be dressed). I think it's so cute!


Baseball continues. I continue to be impressed with Clayton. I have to admit that I love watching their games and cheering my boys on.
Pretty typical. Clayton is playing pitcher and standing in the ready position with his eye on the ball, waiting to field it if he needs to. Noah (in the background) is missing his hat, not even wondering where the ball is, and needing coach's wife to stand next to him to constantly remind him that he is, in fact, playing baseball. He's getting better every game though (and he is one heck of a hitter when he's paying attention)!

And what does Josie do during their games? Eat snacks and watch shows on the iPad of course! Honestly, how do people cope without one!?! I actually get to watch the whole game!
Clayton had to give a presentation on Illinois last week. He's had to give several presentations this year, but this one was my favorite by far. He's such a good little public speaker. I do have video of it, but I can't figure out how to upload it.
Just a cute one of post-dinner Josie (I can tell it's post-dinner because she has no shirt on).
Clayton came home from school one day obsessed with paper airplanes. So we had a little paper airplane workshop. I showed the boys how to fold them and correctly throw them (they kept trying to throw them like baseballs). We had a fun afternoon making and throwing airplanes.


Even miss girl got in on the action!
Noah had his end of the year concert at school this week. He was incredibly cute. By far the cutest and most animated kid in his class (the cutest part might just be me being biased, but the animated part is just plain true). Again, I took tons of video of his concert, but can't get it loaded. Maybe a different post.

I smiled throughout the whole concert. So cute!
They also had a mini-graduation and reception after the concert. Here's Noah with his diploma.
Noah with his teacher. We love Mrs. Holiday and Noah was so lucky to have her as his teacher this year. We're going to miss her when Noah moves up to the 5 year old class next year.
A while ago, we had the wallpaper removed in our entryway and had it painted a lovely shade of gray. I love it, but it's a lot of gray. I wanted some pops of color to brighted up the entryway so I made a curtain. It's not perfect so don't look to closely, but I love it!
I also really like the tassle pull-back! I think it's classy and whimsical. The entryway isn't quite done yet (we're still waiting on a few things), but I'll do a seperate post on it when it's all done.
From the outside. I did the reverse on the back. I love the little pop of green you see from the outside!
Hope you enjoyed the pictures!
