1. kindergarten - two down, two to go for us! isaiah and michael are in the same classroom three years apart, and i love that the teachers do the same project every year. once we move, i'll have to continue this little hand print tradition on my own for liam and wyatt, if their new classroom doesn't make the same ones.
2. pinterest - i heart pinterest. seriously. wyatt recently started in-home ABA therapy and with his very short attention span, it's really hard to keep him interested in anything. we are constantly thinking up new and exciting ways to keep him engaged. pinterest is a one-stop shop where i can find endless ideas for things to do with him. one of his latest favorites is this cardboard house. and guess what...it's collapsible! it collapses flat and can be stored against a wall, in a closet, behind the sofa. find the tutorial here. and follow me on pinterest, too, while you're there!
3. soccer - michael loves soccer. really. except when there's practice in 104* heat.
4. rain baby - liam new obsession is algebra. isaiah reads basher books and he's currently reading the algebra and geometry edition, which means liam is reading it (and memorizing it), too.
4. dollar store win - i took a stroll through the dollar store and found these awesome 'staches, furry and all. i had to get them because i knew the boys would go town with them.
and i was totally right.
5. welcome - i usually unload the boys from the car and tell them to wait by the front door while i unload other things. lately, they've been sitting on the doorstep together waiting for me and i just love coming around the porch to find them sitting patiently like this. my sweet boys.
6. day on the green - the boys had soccer pictures for the fall soccer league last saturday. we now have three boys playing on this league. crazy how time flies.
liam is playing in a program is called TOPSoccer, which is hosted by the local soccer league. it's a program for special needs kids that gives them to opportunity to play soccer, and in liam's case, the chance to play just like his big brothers do. it's an amazing program and we are so grateful to have this resource available to liam.
i had to sneak a picture of michael posing for his rookie card. super cute.
7. surprise - on our way to soccer pictures, we stepped out and found this nice surprise in the sky above our house. one of the many beautiful things we love about living in the "country".
8. super fresh - liam's grandma gave him these super-fresh, bright green, skinny pants. he wore them to school one day and all of the teachers couldn't stop gushing about how cute he was and how he looked like such a rock star. he loved the attention, i'm sure of it.
9. silver - michael's summer soccer team played their final games on sunday and they finished in second place. not bad for his first time ever playing organized soccer. super proud of these silver medalists - go team rascals!
