Favorite Pics of the week

Here are all of my favorite pictures from this past week. Hope you enjoy!

This is where I found Emma Kate the other day. She took it upon herself to take her diaper off, use the potty, and wash her hands (bare bottom and all). We are going to be attempting potty training part 2 in the next couple of weeks.

Here is Braden posing for the camera with his newest train, Spencer, thanks to Papa. My dad took Braden to see Thomas the train and was under strict orders ( I won't mention any names here) not to buy any toys, but as you can see, my dad has NO will power. Braden told John, "Papa buys me everything."

As promised, a soccer picture. This was the only decent one that I took that day and his eyes are closed!! I think he had just scored a goal. May 1st is his last day of soccer and he is going to be so disappointed. I haven't broken the news to him yet...I don't have the heart to tell him that it supposed to rain that day too!

John home for a few minutes before heading out to yet another soccer game. The kids swarm him the minute he walks in the door. This is our life during soccer season. Hey, I'm not complaining, moments like these are priceless. It warms my heart to see the kids love all over John when he comes home.

The kids coloring while waiting on John to get home from, yep, you guessed it, a soccer game. We needed something constructive to do to pass the time.

Here's what you've missed...

since I haven't posted in 2 months!!! I can't believe I have let so much time go by without posting a single picture. My apologies to all 2 of you who actually check my blog weekly. :) So without further adu, the last 2 months in a nutshell:

Braden started soccer and loves it!! This is a picture from his first day. I'll be posting some more recent ones soon and hopefully get some good action shots.

Here are a couple of pictures of Emma Kate caught in action. Doing what? I don't exactly know, but she seems to have an obsession with diapers.

And, last week during John's spring break we re-did our bedroom. Mom and I spent 3 days painting while John was on kid duty. (He HATES painting) The curtains, bedskirt, and pillows I had made and were ready just in time! I have nothing hanging on the walls yet, and I have to say the 2 pictures don't really do the room justice at all. I wish I had taken some before pictures to share. The room was white because I've known for the 5 years that we've lived in this house that I wanted to change our bedroom stuff, so I finally got around to it and I'm thrilled with the results!

That's it so far. I promise I won't let another 2 months go by without posting anything!
