Week Four: 1/25-1/31

We started the week off trying to get the snow away. We were all home on Monday waiting for roads to clear - there was no school. Thankfully Tim took the boys to Launching Pad (trampoline park) for a bit so I could get some work done. The day warmed up and made it easier to get around. 
The sky was so beautiful when I took Eli to swim practice. 
Had to take a few pictures. 

Tuesday was Report Card day. I love seeing what the boys have been doing in school and hopefully their report cards reflect their efforts. With two boys, we mostly see reduced marks on behavior - big surprise right? 
Eli's writing sample - I'm apparently a "Busy Beaver" having tow work every day. Thankfully I didn't fall into the 3rd sentence - "Couch Potato". 
"In my opinion kids should not have homework" - nice try Eli, not sure it worked on your teacher. 

Wednesday was Cole's little girlfriend, Peyton's birthday. To celebrate her birthday, he took her a perler bead heart, cookies and money to buy her milk at lunch. My sweet little boy. 💜 Thursday night, Cole had a swim lesson make-up class. He's doing so well. 
Thursday night's dishwasher
Getting excited for the Panthers to be in the Super Bowl this weekend
Friday night during Eli's swim practice. Cole is getting really good at mazes. 
Found this in Eli's Friday folder. My boys love going to the movies and love popcorn just like Daddy. 
Friday night swim practice - Eli & his buddy PJ

Grandma C came to visit this weekend. She arrived Friday night and we had a busy weekend planned. Build-a-Bear, Pinewood Derby and Peyton's birthday party. So much fun!!
Pinewood cars ready to go - Cole's Superman car and Eli's 'Keep Pounding' Panthers truck
Saturday morning we went to Build-a-Bear so Cole could build one for Peyton for her party. He was careful to pick the best bear for her. And I think he did!!

Giving Toodle a bath
Cole & Toodle Gem. We think Peyton will love her. 
💗💜💗💜
No visit to the mall is complete without going to the Lego store. This is Cole's current pick (um...yeah). 
Headed to the Pinewood Derby
Eli's check in and weigh in - his was mid day and Cole's was that evening. 

One of Eli's races

He won Best Sports Theme
And then it was Cole's turn. He had an issue with some of the weights Daddy put on the bottom (track clearance) so they had to do some quick modifications. 
Scout Daddy + Scout Boys 

Superman ready to go
Cole won one of his races. Yay!

We're glad Grandma C was here for the fun.
Sunday morning, everybody's favorite banana chocolate chip muffins 
 Peyton's gymnastics party
 Love the rainbow theme

Cole & I are working on the Day by Day Kid's Bible this year. We've finished January!
