Happy Mother's Day!

My little boys got to make the lunch decision. They chose McDonalds! I'm one lucky mommy!! But, Adam decided we could go a bit classier, so we went to Burger King!

Adam fixed my dinner- grilled ham steaks, asparaus and corn on the cob

I got some lovely painted pictures and a card the boys picked out themselves. They insisted on the one that sang!

The boys were so wound up during dinner that I never could get a great picture of the three of us

We had more fun today at a big Korean Children's Day celebration with our local Korean American society. There were so many activities for the kids to do and we got to see some of the families from our adoption group. More pics on the adoption blog!

quick and easy bath night

The new sand is in the table- until it gets so hot we have to switch it to just being a water table!

How to pass the time before going to daycare when Mommy is trying to get everything ready to go!

Fun at first until you have to go to school in wet clothes!

May 8

Daddy and the boys were given the job of finding some sand for the sand table tonight. So, they went to our big, local garden center. They found more fun than just sand!

Wow! All by himself!



Thumbs up!

I had a really cool video to share here, but have not been able to get it off of my camera and onto here. Still learning my new camera. If I figure it out, I will post. If not, I will try to get another video for another day. Sorry

My little boys are getting so big! They got their first tatoos today. They were so excited and decided to get 3 tatoos each!

May 5

This morning we had a picnic with our adoption group to celebrate Children's Day in Korea. There is a nice playground at this park, so the boys stayed entertained for hours!

It's so fun to see all of our Korean friends every so often.

 The boys got to eat their first freeze pop, but the heat melted it pretty quickly and they couldn't figure out how to get the juice out

We had a great time visiting with our adoption group. More pics on our adoption blog!

I was only gone for a couple of minutes to gather jammies!!

In that short amount of time, the boys found themselves some snacks. And Grayson managed to open a brand new box of crackers!

And spill them everywhere (these are the days I regret being an OT and encouraging such good fine motor skills!)

Pause the bedtime routine- let's vacuum instead

This was Neylan's pick. Thank goodness he didn't get his box and package open!!

May 4

Adam needed to mow tonight, so I took the boys to the park to keep them out of the way. They have discovered the sand volleyball court now and wanted to stop here first.

I'm going to get you with a handful of sand!

Ha, ha, I got you instead!

Oh no you didn't! Here's a handful of sand for your hair!

Friends again!! Bath night FOR SURE!!!!

There's been a lot of de-cluttering and organizing going on this week in an effort to show how much storage space we have (obviously not much, since we had to bring it all out to the garage). The garage looks much better now as do all of our closets. Hopefully the buyers will see the potentional!

May 2

My mom has a stress fracture in her foot and can't put any weight on it for a while, so she gets around with this scooter. Although her mobility was limited during this trip, the boys sure have loved going on scooter rides,

being chased by the scooter,

and having scooter races!

Another great Pinterest idea put into action tonight- shaving cream bathtub paint. Just add a drop of food coloring to shaving cream and let the painting begin!

We took our first trip of the year to the farm this morning. Grayson enjoyed feeding the goats last year, but this year will take some warming up, I think.

Neylan preferred to feed the big goats as opposed to the little ones that nip at you constantly unless you are giving them a bottle.

The Trolley Run was a no-go for us this morning. It was raining and cold, so we went back to bed. But the day's events weren't completely messed up by the rain. We had tickets to the dinner theater tonight with my parents and brother. The food was terrific, as always, and the show was hilarious.  

April 28

Nana, Granddad, and Uncle Ben arrived today and since it's the night before the Trolley Run, we need to let these guys practice before their race in the morning. Grayson is ready! If we can just hold the rain off.
