It's Finally Here!

Well just like that our little girl has completed the 3rd grade.  WHAAA!  Where is the pause button!  These few pictures were taken as we were leaving for the last day of school.  She's grown so much this year in all aspects.  We love her so much and are just so proud her. 
 
Even though I had a wonderful class this past year, I am always ready for break.  It's so nice to slow down and enjoy life at home with my own kids.  I always hit the ground running at the beginning of break with projects I never have time to get to during the school year.  One of the first items to check off the list was organizing the office area.  I love it right now.  Everything in it's place....no one is allowed to touch anything...haha, kidding....kind of ;)
 
Another thing I love is being there for Jed when he wakes up from his nap.  He is usually so snuggly in his groggy state.  He also talks my ear off right when he wakes up.  A few days ago it was about Creepy Carrots (from one of his favorite books), today it was Rocky and Bullwinkle.  I love how his little imaginative mind works. 

This boy also loves his baby owl.  Evangeline picked it out as a souvenir for him from our trip to Starved Rock last summer. 
 
We've been using the pool a lot.  I have two little fish!  Jed has gotten so good at swimming and it's precious to see his little legs kicking so fiercely as he maneuvers his way around the water.  
 
These two have been spending lots of quality time together.  It's been so good for both of them.  It's so funny how Evangeline can be such a mother hen to Jed and then a few minutes later she's mad at him for saying something unkind or taking something from her.  I have to remind her that he's only two.  Most of the time she is so patient with him and they have so much fun together.  They are quite the pair. 
 
I'm sure I'll be craving routine in a few months, but for right now, bring on summer vacation!  I welcome a break from the routine and all the time I can soak up with my babies!
