May Happenings - 4

normally, i find it somewhat irritating to receive duplicate gifts for the kids...unless a store has an easy return policy, the store is someplace that i regularly visit and there is little to no line to wait in.  however, when evan received two bubble mowers for his bday it might have been the best thing to ever happen.  he didn't receive them on the same day and the day he received the 2nd one, he opened 20+ presents in less than 2 minutes, so i'm not sure that he even remembers that he got two of them!  so, we had no sharing issues, and both kids have a blast  with the mowers!  we "mow" the sidewalks around our house at least twice a day!

you can't properly mow the sidewalk unless you are chewing on your tongue...

busting out the pool for the first time!!!!

ever day, we do the tour of sports...a little golf, a little baseball, a little soccer, a little biking, a little basketball, etc.  you name it, we play it.  at least once a day!   when bret pulled some weeds out around our magnolia tree, evan capitalized on the opportunity to practice for future golf dilemmas.  

gracie LOVES strollers.  she is constantly asking for a stroller ride.  every day, we go for a 4-5 mile run in the morning, and while evan talks the entire time, gracie typically is so chill that i frequently ask e if she is even awake!  and after we are done, she spends a ton of time buckling the harness.  as soon as she gets one buckled, i can hear her yelling "oboe, oboe, oboe" which to her translates to open.  and repeat.
