April has been busy...and it is not over yet!

I keep thinking things are going to slow down but wow...April has been a busy month. I look ahead to the summer and it is not going to slow down but of course there will be lots of fun too!

 

 

We have been spending lots of time at the baseball fields now that the season has started. Lucas LOVES baseball and has gotten some pretty good hits, has enjoyed playing catcher a few times, already participated in a 4-game tournament and just loves his friends on his team (most of them are on his soccer team too).

 

I just love him in his uniform!

 

 

I was in Chicago a few weekends ago for a very special occasion...for my dear friend Pam's baby shower. We were so excited to throw her a beautiful shower and I know she loved it and appreciated it....just as much as we love her and can't wait for this next chapter in her life!!! She is due next month and I can't wait!!!!

The next weekend I had to switch from baby shower mode to birthday mode. I can't believe it but Lucas, my baby, turned 7!!!!!! Sometimes it seems like a lifetime ago that he was a baby and sometimes it feels like just yesterday. Lucas is growing into such a great little guy (full of lots of energy and crazy of course). He seems to LOVE school, is becoming an amazing reader and loves sports, legos and playing with his kindle. A few months ago Lucas started going to CCL (Center for Creative Learning). It is the school district's gifted program. He goes to this school just one day a week and he loves it and we can tell it is so good for him. We are very proud of him.

 

 

We celebrated his birthday with a big party at Vetta (indoor soccer/inflatable).

It was a really fun party and he had a great time!

 

The NHL playoffs started this month and we have been cheering on the Blues.

Go BLUES!!!



 

It was a beautiful day on Easter...the weather seriously could not have been any better. We celebrated with Bob's family on Saturday and mine on Sunday. Spent as much time outside as possible, of course the kids had an easter egg hunt, and just spent some great time together. It was a great day.

Hope everyone had a great Easter!
