May Day

It's May Day!  Tonight after dinner it was project time.  The boys and I made butterfly May baskets this year.  We stapled, stickered, pipe cleanered, and filled them with treats.  They were pretty proud of their work and couldn't wait to go make the deliveries.  We made one basket for each set of grandparents and one basket for each boy.
 Waiting on the doorstep, all ready to ring the first bell.
 Happy May Day, Grandma!
 Happy May Day, Grandma and Grandpa!

PIGTAILS!

Yes!  Anna's first pigtails made an appearance on Sunday morning.  The boys ran around saying, "Alien Baby!  Alien Baby!"  They thought they looked like little antennae coming out of her head.  Alex's first reaction was "Crazy Hair!"  Then they settled for the fact that she looked like Boo from Monsters Inc.  I guess you can tell that my boys aren't around little girls much.  It was quite the topic of conversation.  I thought it was adorable!  So excited!

My Soccer Stud

This is my favorite soccer picture of Brady yet.  He looks so grown up and just loves playing in his games.  Two weeks ago he wore shorts and short sleeves...last week we sat in the wind, cold, and SNOW to watch him score his first goal!  Crazy the weather spring brings.  No one minded the weather.  It was SO worth it to see the excitement of his first goal.  He is still talking about it!

Anna's First Brewer Game

On Sunday, April 22, 2012 Anna attended her first Brewer game!  She was all decked out in her warm Brewer gear because it was a bit on the chilly side.  A pleasant way to watch the game!
 Grandpa Johnson and Brady taking in the game....and the snacks!
 Alex was lovin' life sitting with daddy and watching baseball.
 1 o'clock games are tough to make it through when it's naptime.  Anna snuggled right in and took her nap at the ballpark.
 Miller Park is sporting a new score board this year.  It's pretty awesome.
 Up from our nap and enjoying the game with Grandma.
 Brady and Andy decided to make a little of their own fun during the game.



 Anna snagged Alex's hat.  With a green nuk you can hardly tell she's a little girl!  Have no fear, she was wearing pink shoes.  :)
 Brady and Grandma
 I just love this picture of my Alex.
 The boys got to run the bases after the game.  Brady took off and ran them as fast as he could.
 Alex on the other hand was a bit timid.  One of the Brewer's workers helped him around the bases since daddy's weren't allowed on the field.
 Then we tried for a family picture.  We got about 20 of these....
 before we got one of these.
 Hey, it's BRADY!
 We found Mickey!
 And Bernie!
Heading back to the car.  This is how we travel.
It was a fun first game for Anna!
