In a treasury!

It is so exciting whenever one of my items is included in an Etsy Treasury! 

Please check it out Here!

Many thanks to Theresa from Deusprovidebit  for telling me how to display the treasury here on the blog!

The Month of May

The month of May was quite the whirl wind and so I didn't have a chance to post any of our photos. But I am going to make up for that now! 

To start off, we went to the Science and Technology museum with our friend Nicky and his Mom. We got to see everything from trains to spaceships!

Next was the Tulip festival! We enjoyed all of the beautiful blooms and the company of our good friend Veronica on that lovely afternoon.

As a belated birthday excursion, we went with Belinda and Gracie to Cosmic adventures! A giant pit of balls was just what Philip had always wanted!

On May 7th, we heard the sad news that my grandmother Mimi had passed away and so Philip and I flew home so spend the next two weeks in Kansas City.

The three littlest cousins enjoyed the playtime spent together! 

We were so lucky to have arrived before the humidity and spent many hours enjoying the outdoors.  We did everything from the Arboretum, flying kites, the zoo, a baseball game, bike rides, walks and trips to the playground! It was so great!

And then when it seemed that we had done everything, it was time to leave. Philip got to ride his new scooter all through the airport on our way home. 

Since our trip, the rest of this month has been filled with many loads of laundry and putting things away. And of course a few walks around the block with the scooter!

Another treasury!!

I managed to snag another treasury!! Check it out here! 

Birthday Bash!

I can't believe that two years has flown by so quickly! Philip thoroughly enjoyed his day and it seemed that the fun just didn't stop!

It also happened to be the nicest day we have had so far this spring. And the temp even made it to 85! Now of course that means we had to bring out the water toys. And we enjoyed a BBQ and dinner out on the back patio. It was great!

Philip really enjoyed the ice cream cake that Fr. Creurer gave him! 

And what two year old doesn't like blowing out candles! He even got to do it twice. 

But as we all know that the best part of a birthday is the presents! And he sure got a lot of them. We still have two sitting on our table that he will get to open later. What a lucky kid! 

Before Mass

This morning before Mass Philip had the privilege of a personal tour in the sacristy. I think this is a good sign for his future!

The Simple Things in Life

Saturday was so lovely that we walked over to the Fitzpatrick's home to make use of the backyard. It amazes me how long Philip can play with a bucket of water. We are looking forward to many more days like this.

Science Lesson

Philip loves to bounce balloons around the house. Usually this will buy me some time to get some things done or just sit uninterrupted at the computer. However after he had been hollering and jumping on the couch and had to see why. His balloon had picked up some static electricity and it was stuck to the ceiling. 

As you can see he was not much amused by the situation. 

After I took it down, he discovered that if you lie on top if the balloon it pops! And that was the end of my peace and quiet.
