this week {from my phone}

Late nights at the baseball games make for difficult 8:30am soccer games the next morning. Thank goodness we don’t have to look cute at all to show up to games!IMG_4675Post-game the boys went down for naps and Emory got a treat in the yard…IMG_4685Saturday night we had some friends over for burgers. Watson has a not-so-subtle crush on Annie Parker!IMG_4689The poor babies got banned from riding the jeep. Thanks goodness they have each other.IMG_4690Bright and early, each and every morning, he’s the first one up and ready for breakfast. Never mind that it might be 6:30 in the morning!IMG_4701And he’s happy when his brother or sister wakes up and joins him. Sometimes he’s even allowed to sit at the bar like a big kid!IMG_4710Watson’s other not-so-subtle crush, Avery. And he apparently likes taller women.IMG_4715Sunday night dinner at my parents. It usually means the kids don’t have to eat their dinner and they still get dessert. IMG_4726IMG_4727Sadly the time has come for my first born boy to grow up a little, and we converted his crib to a toddler bed. He was super excited to help Daddy ‘fix it wif da tools’!IMG_4739Emory gave a ‘good luck’ kiss…IMG_4740and wished him luck!IMG_4741He slept wonderfully. So wonderfully that he didn’t feel like he needed to take a nap the next day until about 5 minutes before dinnertime, which totally messes up our entire nighttime routine. Boo. IMG_4744And while her brother was mastering his new, big boy bed, Emory was sneaking into our bed because she was having bad dreams. Cute, but way uncomfortable. IMG_4746We tried for a pool day, but the weather wasn’t quite warm enough yet. Like that weird mix of I’m sweating to death outside of the pool, but way too freezing in the pool. Bummer. IMG_4752Boland decided to watch and stay warm in mama’s lap. IMG_4755And with pool time comes popsicle time. To the point that I can’t even argue. And this was right before dinner. Anything to keep from three kids having an evening meltdown. IMG_4760IMG_4761Emory is definitely the caregiver of her brothers, but when she’s off at school, Watson steps up to the plate and takes great care of Boland. IMG_4777He certainly loves him!IMG_4778An early morning run to the grocery store while the boys were not in good moods. Solution: picked up some munchkins on the way! IMG_4783And Boland loves to snack. All the time. But he refuses to eat his snacks cut up properly. IMG_4789In fact, he doesn’t bother to take the grape off the stem at all. This kid is crazy. And we love him despite it. IMG_4794
