This week's project is getting this school room ready! Can I do it!??

Here they are!

Tonight is the 2nd night of crazy thunderstorms, like the memorable kind.
Lucia did not make a peep last night, but tonight she woke up crying. I picked her up and she stopped and then Diego walked in the closet (she's sleeping in our closet right now bc she wakes up 2-3 times a night and Alexia was having a hard time sleeping...) and she lept into his arms. Remember this is our girl who refuses cuddles and does not like to be held. He took her into his room to cuddle her and she laid down on his chest in his bed. This does not happen.ever. She stayed in his room for a good 10 minutes without making a peep. She only fussed for me bc I went in to check on her.
When we carried her back to my closet Diego reeeeeally wanted to bring his blanket and pillow and sleep next to her so he "could comfort her in the night." She happily let me put her down and her amazing big brother is sleeping right next to her. Melt.my.heart

We went to a puppet show with our friends yesterday. The show wasn't great, but we had fun with the 8 kids in tow. Alexia and Shiloh watched the whole show and seemed to enjoy it.
We take up a lot of seats, huh?! :)

These new target carts rock!

Yesterday we had a long play date/lunch at our friends house and it was way too much fun. James is almost 5 so of course is Marcos buddy, but D and A were soooo excited to go to their house to play. It was so sweet.

This was amazing! Diego read books to James for an off and on total of about 90 minutes. He is not one to read to the littles much so this was just so special and sweet.

Lucia and Sam had fun poking at each other. How cute are they?!

It was a definite reading fest all around.
Kay is going to hire Diego to come over to be a mother's helper so she can have a nap and he can read books to James for an hour or so. I'm excited for him to have the opportunity!
So grateful for these special people to do life with!

Sweet Miller came over to play on Tuesday. He was NOT convinced that this sprinkler/trampoline business was a good idea...

...so Alexia blessed him with a long game of badminton and indoor Lego play :)
