Our Family

Ace had his first HOMEWORK project. I was so nerdy-excited over this and wanted it to be perfect. He had to put photos of his family on a house that the teacher sent home. As soon as he got up from his nap we were printing photos. I knew I couldn't do it for him (as badly as I wanted to) so I thought my circle hole-punch would make everything clean looking.
Ace punched the photos and the white paper. Then I told him he could draw a picture of everyone on their white circle...it ended up more like scribbling.
I had some brads in my craft cabinet so we covered the pictures and made "windows" in the house.
Even Hula made it although you can't really see her in the lower right corner.
Ace used Elmer's glue which ended up soaking through the photo paper and giving everyone pink splotches in the middle of their faces!!!! I thought to myself, when Ace goes to school tomorrow, I'll just redo the whole thing. Then I came to my senses and just left it as the 3yr old's masterpiece that it is.
Here's the pic we used of Lily Kate. Looking more like her Daddy every day.
I had to take this picture of Ace because he's been OBSESSED with my iPhone lately. He can use it better than I can and I frequently find my wallpaper changed or my ringtones mixed around. He even called one of my clients! Yikes!
I LOVE this pic of the kids. Lily Kate isn't smiling very much yet but she will give those rare treats to her big brother.
My three loves.
Mommy does exist! (You'd never know it from most of our photos.)
Two more weeks of maternity leave then our world will change again. For now, we are really enjoying preschool and time together.

Kelly, you look sooooo pretty! Love the hands-off approach to the first project, I'm sure that was hard.
