The past week

I am completely exhausted! And it’s no wonder… we’ve had a crazy week (well,  for us anyway)!

It’s seriously a miracle that we don’t end up in the ER more. Eli is a daredevil!

I saw this idea for making “art” on Pinterest, and thought I’d try to make a sign with a quote I liked. Eli thought the finger painting was pretty cool!

Not sure if I like the result well enough to hang it in our home, but it was a fun project that only cost about $4 to make.

I love black and white pictures. Eli and I got to hang out with Beau for a couple days this week because his usual babysitter broke her foot. Eli loved having his cousin around (and cried both days when he had to go home!) but my boy doesn’t manage interruptions to his routine well. We paid dearly for the fun we had!

Beau really enjoyed watching Eli work on his letter “A” project.

Eli WAS pretty entertaining! (Please disregard the mis-matched clothes on my son… I was picking my battles that day!)

One of the days that Beau was here, we also had a playdate with Zane and Sophia.

The kids completely emptied the toybox, and then started a “marching band”.

This week we also got to spend this morning babysitting Isabelle and Bentley. It was a big week for Eli with his cousins! (When I told Eli that Izzy and Bentley were coming over, he said, “I don’t remember Bentley. I don’t remember him at all.” Ha!) And today we even got a new cousin, as Shayna Paige Cribbs was born at 2:42 am! She was 6lbs, 8 oz and 19.5 inches long. We can’t wait to meet the new addition!
