field day

I have been corrected by the boys, pajama day is NOT their favorite day of the school year, field day is! Today was field day at school. They were both so excited. Kye got up at 6:00 this morning and came out of his room dressed for school. He did not want to be late. They had fun playing water games and being outside all day!

milk bubbles

Tonight at dinner I wanted a straw and so of course everyone else did too. They were blowing bubbles in their water and I asked if they have ever done that in milk. They said "No, what happens?" I asked if anyone wanted to try it. Kye said he would and Max and Sam ran to the other side of the room thinking it was going to explode or something. Anyway, when they saw that it made bubbles they each wanted a glass of milk to try. I love the simple pleasures in life.

yummy yummy

Kye loves watermelon. I guess I wasn't really paying attention to my cutting because each piece he pulled out kept getting bigger and bigger. He pulled this one out and I said, "Kye just eat one piece at a time." He showed me and it was one very large slice.

relaxing


Tonight after dinner we went outside to eat popsicles and enjoy the weather.  It is so nice right now. We try and stay outside as much as possible before it gets too hot!

the threat

The threat at our house is if you don't pick up your toys then mom or dad will pick them up and throw them away.  So today I was sweeping the kitchen floor and Sam put together a puzzle and left it on the floor.  I kept asking her to pick it up and put it away.  She finally said, "Mom it's ok if you throw it away."  I said, "No, you come pick it up and you throw it away."  I said this thinking she just doesn't want to clean it up.  She walks over and starts putting the puzzle away.  She gets it all in the box, puts the lid on and tosses it in the garbage.  When I finished sweeping I came around the corner and saw the garbage can.  I couldn't help but laugh.

monopoly

Max discovered Monopoly a few months back and loves the game.  He is starting to figure out strategy and how to really play the game.  It is fun.

...and he scored


Today at soccer Kye made his first goal!  We were pretty excited.  He was all smiles after that.  This picture is before the game when they were warming up, I didn't take any pictures during the game.  Oops!
