Catching up...Spring Break Photos...

A FAVORITE activity at our home is waiting for and watching the garbage trucks. And when possible, giving them treats like this time for Easter!

Chas helped Jennifer and I make shirts...

Ice cream truck visit after all of our hard work!

Dad got Chas some t-ball and lacrosse equipment...
He smartly combined the games...hit the t-ball and the outfielder uses the lax stuff to send it back up to home plate. Brilliant idea Dad!

Science experiments...thanks "Tellyrose!"

Goggles for safety! Never mind the multiple bug candles I have burning! :)

I would share a picture of the dinosaur bones but it is taking us quite some time to dig them all out! Good stuff!

3 Year Old Preschool Graduation Party

Today was the last day of 3 year old preschool for Chas...hence a reason to celebrate! We had swiss cake rolls and punch!

Chas has been asking for Bull and Bruno since before Christmas. (Note to Chas for later...Mommy had to play on E-Bay to get this discontinued train and it was $50...and you are worth every penny!).

Again...worth every penny!

After a few moments Chas comments, "Let's have another pirate party and next time can you get me Goggles and Bunson?" (We went to a Pirate Party at dear Tellyroses house last week!).

Chas had a great year at preschool...loved going...loved his teacher...made great friends and learned a lot...what a great experience!

Mother's Day 2011

Some cute comments from Chas this past week:

"Mom...can we go find that website that that spider built?" (He is currently calling all spider webs websites.

Chas and I were discussing his chore chart. He earns can earn 5 stickers a day (Feeding Harley, Eating his food, Going to sleep in his bed, Picking up his toys and listening the 1st time (we have yet to get a sticker for that one).) At the end of the week he gets a dime for each sticker. We were talking about how we will save a dime, give a dime to God, and then spend the rest. A few minutes went by and he said, "But how do we get the money WAY up HIGH to give it to Jesus?" I chatted with him how we will give it to the Church because Jesus will tell them what to do with it. A few more minutes went by, "How do we get the money into our hearts since Jesus lives in there?" . I love his little mind!

Spring Break with Grammy K!

Our 2:00 a.m. arrival didn't stop us from immediately opening up some early Easter baskets!

Helloooo candy dispensing machine!

"Who's that tramping over my BRIDGE!?!?!"

Beach day #1

My Mom is waaaaay out sunning...Chas is digging...Nick is snoozing...I was running all over giving water, filling buckets, and digging holes. My chair was not used.
