Moms and Boys Weekend

As has been the tradition the last few years,  Mom and Jenn and I got together (with the little boys, of course) while the guys spent Bros and Dads weekend at the cottage. This weekend has always been about basketball, but with five little boys, it's full of boy energy as well!

Grammy made mustache cookies. It was hard to make them hold the cookies for a picture before eating them!

More Ben and Isaac interaction, including a little wrestling! I don't feel like Ben is quite as small in person compared to Isaac as he looks in these pictures--maybe it's just head size?!




Going for the takedown!

Listen closely and you can hear Isaac grunt as he tries to get Ben off him.

Grammy and the babies. The three older boys play fairly well together, but the younger two need lots of attention!

It was a chilly weekend! We needed to get out of the house so we bundled everyone up for a walk.

So cute! Jojo spends so much time trying to be TJ and be 6 that I forget that he and Jimmy are only one year apart. They are such good buddies.

It was a little early, but we dyed Easter eggs just to have an activity to keep us occupied!

Prepping the colors. My boys were arguing over who "got" what colors...we had to convince them that they'd all be sharing all colors.

Here's Jojo double spooning:

A beautiful blue egg!


The finished product:

Jenn and Ike

Karen came to hang out--we love having her and love having a higher adult-to-kid ratio!

The little boys watching the big boys play through the window (it was still chilly despite the sun!)

I kept them company. :)

Sunday we headed over to see Uncle Fred and Aunt Diane's new house and safari land. The boys loved the lion, as well as roaring at it.
