Wonderful Weekend

We started the weekend while Daddy was at work

with a trip to Chuck E. Cheese. It was Lexi's

prize for filling her bead jar (for no sassy talk).

Frankie loved skee-ball!

Saturday night we went to a friend's surprise

30th birthday party. Note to all: Don't ask

the Wonkas to aid in keeping secrets!

Monday (still a weekend with Daddy's work schedule!)

we spent 2 hours at Deanna Rose petting zoo. Frankie

was enthralled with every animal and Lexi was

finally old enough to ride a pony there!

Sneaking a Peek

Today was Sneak a Peek at Lexi's preschool

and Frankie's KDO class. Both kids enjoyed

meeting their teachers, playing with new toys,

and listening to a book. Frankie's class only

has 5 kids (with 2 teachers!) - perfect for

his first school-setting!

On my own!

Lexi got to spend three

days in Wichita last

week without Mom &

Dad! With two visits

to the zoo and YMCA

pool plus a trip to the

ice cream parlor, she never wanted to come home!

Thought it'd never happen!

One of the best things

that happened this

year was my grandparents

moving here from TX.

When Henry was first

born, my grandma said

she was too weak and

unsteady to hold babies.

She totally surprised me today by holding (& cooing at)

Henry! This is a picture I never thought I'd get to take!

Ketchup & Smiles

At McDonald's, Frankie grossed me

out with his love of ketchup!

He drinks it!

Henry's first smile!

Little Momma

While Henry was crying, Frankie climbed up in the recliner and started feeding him a bottle. He didn't notice me when I came in the room because he was so intent on his work! He patted Henry's mouth with a burp rag then fed him again. He's such a little mommy!
