pit stop

On our way out of the science center we crossed the road to see the "world's biggest baseball bat".

obsessed to the power of 12

There is not a child on the face of this planet who is obsessed more with Disney's Cars movies!! Calvin eats sleeps and breathes cars. We even name cars we see while driving around town. (according to their color in the movie)

I have been on pinterest and found some really awesome ideas for his BD party. I know...it is a few months away. But he is SO excited. I even looked up how much it would cost to take him to the KY Speedway to see a real race...lets just say we could go to the KY Derby for cheaper!!!!

Hope you are doing well. The weather is record breaking highs. We may have to turn our AC on soon.

I love my ball

my bouncy bouncy ball. I love my ball (sing it in your head like Boots the Monkey!) Uggg...isn't it depressing that buying my kids bouncy balls and singing a Dora the Explorer song to them makes them happy...

On a funny note. They all 3 love (ed) their bouncy balls. Hannah's lasted all of 20 minutes, and then she popped it. (via kicking it into the fence) Calvin's lasted a few minutes longer, then he popped his b/c it was "so much fun" to watch Hannah's deflate. ML's ball is still intact. The older 2 are not allowed to touch it:)

note: H is not pinning ML down under the goal. It sure looks like it though:) She was helping ML to get out , after she(ML) knocked it over with her ball.

St Patty's Day

we always make way more of a deal than we should about St Patrick's Day. But the kids love it. I got them tatoo's, we painted our nails green, we had green pancakes for breakfast, and green coolaid for lunch. When we got back from the park, we found a St. Patrick's day box from Nana waiting for us. It had the candy and stickers in it that you see all over their bodies. What fun, thanks Nana.

spring flowers

are blooming...and dying, thanks to all the rain we've had. Its a mixed blessing. The kids are having a blast playing out side in between rain storms.

I let them ride their bikes down the road to the parking lot (of the plastic surgery building...) and they can ride there. Its a huge lot, and after hours and weekends its completely empty! They love it.

We've also been playing at the park a ton, walking around the block, and went to the zoo once.

tea party

can you find MiriLou?

some one loves wood chips

and it isn't a beaver...Its MiriLou. She will sit by our wood chip pile(which we are trying to get moved...long story there) and play in it. She is partial to the larger ones that she can hold.

Do take notice of the egg(!) MiriLou can climb out of the pack-n-play now. We are working this week on her taking naps in Calvin's bed. She only got out once today, so there is huge progress there.

gym class

I know these pictures are less than par...but this is Calvin in his gym class. he does not like to go! We usually bribe him, and I have to sit there the whole time.(instead of walking the track...) He will turn and look at me every time he does something to make sure I saw him. Then I wave and he smiles.

don't worry, we're safe

(warning: this post is for relatives)

WE ARE SAFE!! I'm guessing that Louisville has hit the national news. We are very safe. The storms went more to the north. Basically about 20 miles to the north. There was a ton of damage, people died, and some buildings ruined ect...but we are safe and praising God for sparing our family and friends!!!
