New Header, contests and updates :)

Did you all see my brand spanking new header?  It is cute and perfect.  I am so grateful because I won a great little contest over at hue and hum.  This is probably one of my favorite things I have ever won, a custom blog header that is perfect for our family.  So if you are in a reader or looking at this message on a email, make sure you actually come and click to the blog!  And make sure you check hue's blog, she is always being generous with her talent.

Speaking of winning, my other beautiful friend Kate is generously giving away an original painting valued at $800!  You only have until June 6th to enter so go leave a comment on her blog now and let her know I sent you!!!

And last but not least I am coming to Utah for 3 weeks in August, I am soooooo excited.  If you are interested in a family portrait session let me know asap because I will only be doing a few while I am there!  You can check out my photography website, www.aprilnewmanphoto.com, and email me at april@aprilnewmanphoto.com.

Happy Memorial Day tomorrow!

 We love playing outside in the pool when it is hot outside!  And obviously Lily was playing in the dirt before hand because her face is a mess!!!

 We babysit a cute little baby, and she likes to be outside too!

Preschool Shapes

This week for preschool we reviewed shapes.  We had lots of fun taping shapes on the floor, gluing paper shapes together to make houses and adding shapes stickers. Then we ate a yummy healthy snack and compared the different shapes of the food (and counted them too of course!)

Everyone wanted to show me their strawberries, even if they were half or almost eaten!

Running on the shapes!

Dandelions

Yummy Apple

Swings and Mohwaks :)

Mason finally let me do his hair in a faux-hawk again, plus I found some gel (called gorilla snot) that was cheap and holds his hair up with out looking to greasy.  In fact it will hold so well he had a little faux-hawk over night while he was camping with Danny.  Anyway he is quite obsessed with it... he will ask for one first thing in the morning, feel it through out the day and check himself out in the mirror!  What a funny kid :)
