May 2016

Here we go!  Trying to catch up on the last 5 months of life in a few blog posts hopefully coming soon! A glimpse of our life back in May...

Everett at 2 months...

Ella's end of year Pre-K concert (she's in orange, top middle)...

Ella's class...

We love her teacher Mrs. Hough!

The girls helped me arrange the gorgeous peonies we cut from our yard...

Love the sweet facial expressions Everett had at 2 months!

My three babes, all around 6-8 weeks..

Pictures off my phone:
Growing strawberries in our backyard...

 Trying out his crib for naps (still sleeping in our room at night)...

 Loved my time with Lucy at her co-op preschool.  We'd often stop at Starbucks for a date after dropping off Ella at school and before heading to her class...

 Preschool graduate!

Lucy found some lip gloss ;)...

 The girls often argue over who gets to be closest to Everett...

Such a smiley boy even from a few weeks old!

 Everett's 2 month check up...

 Love watching Ella dance during parent observation weeks (she is in front, second from right)...

 Reading to little brother...

 Oh his smiles melt me!

 Those eyelashes!

 Hanging out with Nathan and James...

 My brothers and sister-in-laws outfitted Everett with his cute stuffed fox and fox outfit!

 Enjoying a few hot days in May with frappuccinos...

 Sleepy smiles...

 I'm amazed at how many people tell me, "Wow! You have your hands full!" when I have three kids with me.  Wouldn't have it any other way!

Oh Lucy!  Even princesses have tantrums and/or meltdowns on a daily basis ;)...

Hardly room for all 3 in the tub!

Ready for Ella's Mother's Day tea at school...

One of the few pics we have of Everett with a binky - he rarely took it when he was really little and really never kept it in for long.  We gave up on trying shortly after this and he hasn't needed/wanted one since...

Enjoying a hot afternoon at Alki with Uncle Tom while Grandma was in town...

Oh sweet boy!

Cody and I enjoyed a night out at the M's game while my parents stayed with the kids...

Train day at Lucy's preschool...

Everett would often fall asleep while playing on his playmat...

Kelsey Creek Farm with Issaquah friends...

Dinner at the Castros...

Ella with her "Weekly Sportsmanship" award to put in our yard during i9 Spring Soccer...

Lucy loves to snuggle before she goes to bed - love our little chats during that time...

I always want to remember how she requests to hold our hand while snuggling...
