Lanterns

I meant to post this last week...

I took the babies to the botanical gardens for the Chinese Lantern festival on Friday night. I had a 50/50 chance of success or disaster going by myself, so I drafted Kara and baby Rose to go with us. It turned out so well. They LOVED the dragon that blew steam and the lit up lanterns were beautiful!

Beginning of summer 2012

No place like inside an excavator if you're a 3 year old boy who loves construction. When asked if he wants to own a construction company- Beau's always dreaming big- Al simply replies, no I'm going to be a "worker".



My college girlfriends get together every month for dinner. Love these nights- this one we decided it was time for another girls only lake trip!



My kids are eating impressively healthy this month, so I have to get pictures for later proof! The snap peas growing in our garden has sparked a new interest in this vegetable- I guess there is something about growing your own food that makes you want to eat it? And oddly enough they both love mint tea!



A rare picture together that actually turned out decent. If you haven't been there, you have to take your kids to Shaws Arboretum in Grays Summit.


Updates:
1. My new carpet


2. Hopie can count to 9! Which is surprising bc 1 month ago she couldnt put 2 words together- Go Girl!
3. Al has to get his tonsils out. :(
Here he is at the ENT. Turns out he has sleep apnea! Looks like it... Haha.


This week I have taken up boxing but am powering through the pain day by day. I find the more I work my sore-a** muscles, the better they feel. I can finally turn my neck- things are looking up ;).
