This week


Eli had his last basketball game and did amazing!  Something in this last game really clicked and it was fun to see him get comfortable playing with the bigger kids (he's the youngest on his team).  I am so thankful for this coach and the other parents.  Though they were pretty quiet and to themselves, they were supportive and encouraging to all the kids and made it a really great experience.


That afternoon they had an end of season pool party.  Not very many people showed up and we only stayed for a little bit...it was too crazy hot and the water was warm, but Eli wanted that trophy!




Little Miss has really been into joining my workouts. 


The big even of this week was we met the White's at the Y and while Laurel and I took a Barre class (which was SO much fun) and Alison and Aline did a little weight circuit for kids.  If they could make the boys run laps to burn off all their energy it would be a perfect combination.


Ben still holds the title of "feeder of last bites".  He teases Colin that he is always going to feed him, but Colin was sure by 5 he would be done.  He was wrong.  Colin has always sat next to Ben for this reason...Ben will just nonchalantly shovel food in his mouth, without him really noticing what is happening, but it's getting in every last calorie that we can.  Last night, Eli decided to be lazy and asked daddy to shovel in his food too.  It was the first time that he double teamed feeding our kids and let's not forget that they're 5 and 7!
