Ana's Graduation!!

JJ's Pinewood Derby

JJ's favorite part of scouts thus far has been the PineWood Derby. Joel and JJ had a great time designing and building his car. He won first place in his den and third place overall!

 He also won the award for the most aerodynamic

 Anxiously awaiting the cars!

Slipping into summer time : )

We've now had Ana's Pre-K graduation, we've moved rooms in prep for Amelia coming (any day now...), attended the patriotic program for JJ's school, Joel and I helped with field day and today was the official LAST day of JJ's last day of 2nd grade career. He's a happy 3rd grader now! I only say that because he was a little teary at the breakfast table this morning. Seeing as we're slipping right into summer, I thought I'd add some pics I took of the kids a couple weeks ago when we had the slip n slide out....oh, and some of our chickens

 Here are some of our chickens. (From L to R: Becky, Bandersnatch(black), White Queen (white), Tweedle Dum, Luna, Queen of Hearts (Brown with white) and the Mad Hatter.)

 This was their, "you go" "no, you go"

 JJ was the brave one!

 Ana was a little more nervous

 the cluck clucks hanging out by the sail boat

 Our Original Chickens. Affectionately named Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner

 (Nicknamed Becky, Luna and Darcy)

Of course, Toothless need to keep an eye on everything

JJ's Birthday Party Photos

Here's everyone getting ready for pizza!

 Happy Birthday Boy!!

 Everyone having a good time....at least that's the impression that I got

 Birthday gifts

 Birthday cake. I'll tell you what, birthday cupcake cakes are the greatest invention ever!!

ooops

I didn't do so well at meeting my goal to blog 2x a month in April. However, I have been quite busy. So, here's a mini update. I finished my last day at the hospital the end of April. It has been so nice for me to be home and be a mom for the kids (and getting ready for the new baby). JJ finished soccer for the year. He is getting to be such a talented little player!! I'm proud of him. Ana has graduated from Pre-K. I'll try and get the photos up soon.....hopefully. I have been sewing for a wedding and hopefully, I can be done with that in the next day or so. I was able to have a baby shower with my mom, sisters and friends. This is going to be one spoiled little girl. Joel and I continue to visit the doctor and little Miss Amelia is doing well. She is due in 27 days (I think she'll come before then, Joel thinks she'll be late and 12lbs!!...yeah right) I'll try and be better about getting stuff posted and updated but it'll have to wait until I'm done sewing for this wedding : )
