One Cup Blessings: Catch-Up

This week has been swamped preparing for a very successful yard sale to the point I haven't had a chance to even think about writing; however, I have been able to pick-up the trusty old camera and take a few snap shots of what the kiddos and I have been up to this week.

We thoroughly enjoyed viewing a rainbow following a LONG hail storm. Fittingly enough this was only a couple days before St. Patrick's Day.

Mimi and Bobo came down during St. Patrick's Day weekend to celebrate hubby's birthday a little early. I got to enjoy a small portion of his gift too.

After a busy weekend with Mimi and Bobo, both the kiddos collapsed watching Max and Ruby after church. (Notice the pile of folded clothes...Mommy must of crashed too because they haven't quite made it to their spots.)

Our handsome Prince Charming started eating solid foods (pureed of course) this past week. There is no turning back for this little guy. Mommy is still trying to adjust to the amount he can put down!

Elijah took a little breather this week to practice his super hero skills during nap time. (It's really supposed to be his swaddle but he has learned how to turn it into his superhero cape.)

Our Princess always reminds us to take a moment to rest and relax. So we did and enjoyed a nice evening around the fire pit and, yes, we even enjoyed a marshmallow or two!

This was a big moment for Mommy and Elijah this week. After exiting the room for a moment, I came back to find that Elijah had grabbed his monkey lovie and was having the best time cuddling him and, of course, trying to "eat" his hand due to the nature of teething. Just melted my heart!

What a way to finish out our week than to mark Elijah's 4 month birthday! It's amazing that I was able to get the two pictures that I did. He is such a scooter and climber already. His favorite place to be is outside and loves looking at his future play set outside. I believe that once he is mobile we are in trouble!


In this picture, he was in the propped sitting position; however, he decided to flip himself over and then push down to "rest" on the arm of the chair. Such a monkey!
