School's Out For Grady!

Grady had a winter break from school last week. Anson still had his two mornings of preschool, however, since his school is on a different schedule. Though we had some sickness to deal with (mostly me and Anson), we managed to have some fun too. On Monday we visited a really cool children's art school where they have open art time on weekday mornings. They were even allowed to paint on the walls! They had several art projects set up throughout the house and the kids could just wander through and do things at their own pace.

Grady also went to a jumpy place, went mini golfing (and played some tier games) at Frankie's Fun Park, played some board games with Mama, and built a bunch of puzzles. It was a good week!

Grady is making some Valentines

Anson loved the sand bucket. He's a man of simple pleasures.

Do you see the joy on his face as he paints on the wall?

Children's Museum

Now that we are members at the Children's Museum, we have been going quite regularly. It's nice because we don't have to go for a long time or feel we need to see everything in one visit. They also have traveling exhibits and are about to open a new one about pirates! I know the boys will love that!

So here are a few pictures from our most recent visit. None of Grady, unfortunately, mostly because he doesn't stay in one place for very long!


Camille loved rolling this giant tire

It was fun! And we just signed Grady up for 2 camps there this summer - one about cooking and one about green living/recycling. He's so excited for those!

"The Littles"

I always call Anson and Camille "the Littles", and I just so happen to have a few cute pictures of each of them being stylish.

Anson got a haircut last week and did fairly well. He basically just told her "I no like this" the whole time (in an entirely calm voice). The ladies at the haircut place all loved him too. At the end she asked if we wanted her to spike up his hair a little, and we had never done that before, so I said sure. When they did it, and he saw himself, he got so excited! He wanted me to take his picture and even smiled huge. Too bad you can't really see the spikiness. It was so cute! We will have to do it again at home.

Camille decided she loved my sunglasses. They kept falling off her tiny head, but I tried to capture the look
