Sleepovers, Valentines, Early Birthdays and more...

 
In the middle of the night, Eli decided to comfort his brother!  I love my baby boys.
 
 Toby...the best dog ever (usually:)
 
 Ava donated shoes to Upward for children in Africa.  Proud of my girl and thanks to Nana for the donation:)
 
 
 
 Gracie getting ready for her game!  The crowd cheered for her as she played great defense.
 
 
 Chemo Time for Daddy!
 
 
 Silas fell asleep at the games...that was our sign he was sick.  Poor baby.
 Sick baby enjoying some down time and a snack.
 
 
 
 
 
Happy Birthday to Mommy and Daddy!  Brian and I enjoyed a date and loved that we found another awesome babysitter who is brave enough to watch our kids!  We were also able to celebrate with my mom and dad to play games and have a dance party:)  Silas loving us all singing "Happy Birthday".  Of course, we sang it twice..or three times.
 Ava coordinated the activities.
 
 
 
 
 
 (Ignore the classy Beer Case...)
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
Silas' new hobby is reading...or just knocking down books.  I've since come up with a solution.  No more books on the floor makes a happy mommy.
 
 
 
 Eli and his buddy clocked about 20 hours practicing for the talent show.  Their group is called RE-wind and the break dance.  Awesome!  So proud of Eli for overcoming his anxiety.  This is the same boy who refused to leave my side every day at preschool and refused to walk through his graduation ceremony.
 
 
 
Daddy Love is the best
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Making Homemade Valentines:)  Making homemade memories:)
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 

 
Gracie was away at a 24 hour slumber party (with an obviously brave mom) and Eli was at his WWE Surprise...so Ava had a sleepover with her bestie; Brooklyn.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
We surprised Eli with an early birthday present.  His new hobby is collecting WWE figurines.  What he thought was a U of I basketball game ended up being a trip to see his favorite characters.   Love making memories.
