it is hitting me, right in this moment, that my little boys are their own capable, creative little selves.
i think often about how lucky i am to have such amazing little boys.
chet is currently sitting at the kitchen table, whistling as he crafts up a storm - coloring, cutting, pasting, using ridiculous amounts of stickers.
he makes me the nicest pictures lately.
i love all the details he puts into his pictures.
our fridge isn't big enough to hold all the ones i want to display!
i can't believe chet will be finishing kindergarten in a couple weeks.
i feel like it was just yesterday that i was freaking out over him starting!
chet will be going to a new school for first grade and that makes me really sad because his school is amazing.
when his teacher found out that he wouldn't be returning she sent me an email that said, "We at RDL just adore Chet and will be sad that he is not returning next year. I wish him the best in all his future endeavors. Chet will do so well wherever he goes to school as he is such a kind, respectful, eager learner."
It was nice to hear that he has left a good impression.
holden has been watering our one flower pot on our balcony for the past 40 minutes.
don't worry, he is watering it with the teensiest little water gun. (not the most efficient way to get that job done!)
he pulled a stool over to the kitchen sink, filled up a bowl with water, and hustles in and out the house to fill up the water gun and then go spray the flowers.
no one asked him to do this, but he sure thinks he is doing some important business.
funny fact: holden gets his shoes on the wrong feet 90% of the time, which seems statistically impossible.
chet and holden have the exact same shoes for soccer (same size, too), so holden has even managed to get out the door with 2 of the same shoes on which is pretty funny.. that can't be comfortable!
chet and holden are still such good buddies.
they play together so well.
chet is very good at teaching holden how to do things.
holden is so good being happy for all the fun things his big brother gets to do.

and they are both soOOoo good to tad. they adore their little bwother.
right now, tad is laying beside me, dozing off as he drinks a bottle.
snoring.
most of the time we call tad a 'turkey'. just because.
but we also call him our 'little piggy' because he snorts when he is mad and snores when he is sleepy.
he is extra pooped from all the sitting practice we were doing this morning.
i don't think it will be too much longer until he can do it all on his own!
he is still such a smiley little fellow. i love it.
this morning, the boys and i made a countdown to all the exciting things we have coming up in the next month...
holden turns 4, chet finishes kindergarten, we have soccer every saturday, holden's music concert is this coming week, we have birthday parties, an end of school party, father's day, canada day, a zoo trip, aaaand on july 3 we are moving back to the LA area.
it's going to be a fun, busy, and very emotional month!
