Little Monkeys

I thought I would post a video of Evelyn walking...she is doing much better than she was a few weeks ago.  Connor is showing off in the background with Evelyn's Tangled Baseball bat.

Our Home

This is our beautiful home!  I can't find the before pictures but all of the wood in the kitchen (including the cupboards), dining room, and family room was this old, dark, ugly color.  We have spent a lot of time painting and we still have a lot to go.  We have four bedrooms, two and a half baths, a formal living room, family room, and finished basement with a playroom.  I will post more pictures of our house as we finish painting.   Evelyn's room is really cute, but she was sleeping in it when I took pictures, so it will have to wait.       

My beautiful kitchen with tons of counter and cupboard space.

My window looks out into our neighbors beautiful backyard.

I just finished crocheting this pillow and I love it.

Connor's Paintings

Connor wanted to make cards today, so I got out my watercolors for him to play with.  He painted these all by himself and I think he did a beautiful job.

I wanted to a take a picture of the artist, but he was not cooperating.  It is so hard lately to get Connor to smile for the camera.                                

Evelyn, on the other hand, was being very cute for the camera.

Pool in the Backyard

It was a beautiful day today, so I filled up the sandbox that the previous owners had left behind with water and we had a mini-pool party in the backyard.  It was the perfect size for Evelyn...Connor probably could have used more space, but he still had a lot of fun.

Evelyn showing off her very cute swimsuit.

Evelyn hates it when grass touches her knees, so she crawls on her hands and feet when she is in the grass.  It looks pretty funny.

Connor loves playing with the hose.   It was fun until he drenched me with cold water.

I like that both kids have their tongues sticking out. 

What a nice brother!

Waterfall

Andrew got the pond-less waterfall in the backyard working!  It sounds really nice and looks pretty.  Connor and Evelyn had a great time playing in the water.
