Today was Family Fun and Fitness Day at the elementary school so Peter, Eli and I joined the big kids for a morning of fun exercise.

 Leah did a great job for her team in tug-of-war

and in the sack races - it helped that she was paired with one of her best friends, Anika.

 Lincoln was more interested in dancing to the music they had broadcasting across the fields.  I didn't mind - I love to watch this kid dance... he totally gets in the groove.

And I finally found a way to keep my little explorer from climbing fences and walking on the wrong side of the bridges - it's actually very impressive to see how long he can hang there.

Room Service

 We spent the weekend moving furniture around in our bedrooms as we prepare to move our baby out of his crib sometime in the next few months.

Ahhh... the end of an era, luckily we have a new nephew on the way who can put it to good use :)

 

 We started  by moving the bunk beds into the boys room and upgrading Peter from a toddler bed to a "real" bed.

 

 Then we moved the double bed that Andrew and I have been using into Leah's room.  For the time being, the crib is still there, but it will probably be gone by the end of the summer.   And as you can see, Leah's room is still sporting pale walls - she has been promised a room makeover for her 9th birthday so we are gathering ideas and paint swatches.

Finally, we took advantage of the bare room to paint our walls a lovely warm golden color before moving in our new queen size bed - I can't believe we waited so long to paint!  It makes such a huge difference in how the room looks... now we just need to rehang our pictures and pretty up the windows a little :)
