Jackson's Birthday Party

We had Jackson's 4th birthday party at Monkey Bizness. I needed a place where I would not have to clean or do much work. It was a success! Jackson and his friends had a great time. There was so much running around, I got very few pictures.

But, I did manage to capture a very few moments.

Jackson sliding down the huge slide:



and playing air hockey:



And everyone enjoying dinner and cupcakes:






After we got home the boys opened all the presents:




Jackson had a great birthday party! Thanks to everyone for celebrating his big day with him!

Watermelon

Jackson loves his watermelon!!

Soccer- The Fab 4s

Jackson started soccer this spring. At first he did not like it and it took everything to make him participate. But, he warmed up to it and enjoyed it more and more every week.

Jackson seems to enjoy playing soccer and kicking the ball, but does not really enjoy the group activities and lessons. We will have to see if that changes.

However, when they played their last "game" Jackson sat in the middle of the field for a little while picking grass and flowers!

Warming up with Daddy:




With his team:




Brady wanted in on the action:




Overall, a good experience and we will get Jackson playing again beginning in the fall.

Potty Trained and a Big Boy Bed

Brady is completely potty trained. I am so proud of him. We still have to remind him to go, but he is getting better and better at just telling us that he needs to go. He loves the treats and all the praise he gets, especially from Jackson!

And, I am thrilled to not have two kids in diapers come June! Good job Brady!

Plus, I could juts eat him up in his little underwear!



Brady has also moved into a big boy bed in anticipation of his little sister's arrival. Here are the last pictures of Brady in his crib:





I need to get one of him in his new bed. He has no less than 40 animals in there with him.

Brady loves his big boy bed and has done amazing sleeping in it. He stays in his bed at night and nap time. We are so proud of Brady!

Grandma Visits

Grandma Savino (MJ) came to town to visit everyone and help me with some sewing for the baby's nursery. Really, there was no help from me, she did all the sewing. Now, the baby's nursery is coming together and I getting very excited for this little girls arrival!

Grandma also got to spend some time with the boys.

Brady and Grandma:



Jackson and Grandma:



And one she got of the boys together in the swing:



Grandma got a couple other cute photos while she was here. It is a good thing she took out her camera, because I am pretty sure I never did!





Thanks so much for all of the help! We had a great time and can't wait to see you again soon!
