Masterpiece Monday

Last week's Sunday Family Dinner was a true masterpiece - 

Meatballs!

Patrick and Finnegan made the meatballs and sauce with Gill and did an amazing job.

They were so very proud and told me all about using the meat play-doh.  (YUCK)

The finished product was so delicious.

 Their biggest fan may have been Sullivan, who ate 2 bowls of spaghetti...

 and an entire meatball!

 Dinner was fantastic, but their spaghetti-eating skills were also masterpieces.

After School Fun

What's more fun than an after-school playdate?

Bringing your friends home with you!

 Cuddling on the couch

 Playing trains

 Racing around the house on Sully's toys

 and Make your Own Pizza!

 Even Sullivan got in on the action (with a little help from Mommy)

Delicious, hand made dinner! 

 Yum!

They may have spent the morning in school together, but nothing beats an afternoon with more play!

Wordless Wednesday

Tunnel Vision

We have quite a week.  3 sick kids, overlapping 2 at a time.  Good times.

Today, my sweet Finnegan declared that he was going to make sick Pitty Pat happy when he woke up. 

He asked me for every tent and tunnel we had in the house and built Patrick...

a tunnel masterpiece!

 It definitely did the trick.  When Patrick woke up from his rest, he was thrilled!

 Sully loved following his brothers through the tunnels, 

but was confused as to where the living room went.

Finnegan sure knew how to make his brother feel better - 

 and put a smile on all of our faces.

PreSeason Practice

 Last weekend, the Kilcoyne and Weltz Families got together for some pre-season t-ball practice.

After drills with Coach Aaron, the kids took turns at bat.

Patrick was up first and hit a great shot... 

and ran right to first, where Preston was waiting.

 Sully had his own games going on - knock the ball off the tee, play in the sand..

 and run the bases.

 Ginny was up next...

 followed by Preston, being pitched to by Aaron.

 Sully came out of the dugout to give his brother a hug.

 Finnegan hit strong...

 And, last but not least, Lizzy was up.

 After batting practice, the kids ran the bases with Coach

 before we hit the pizzeria!

 We love t-ball, especially when it ends with pepperoni and hugs!

Posing with Patrick

Strike a Pose!

Too Big Tuesday

Now that Patrick and Finnegan have new bikes from Christmas, 

there is no telling Sully he's too small for their old ones!

Secret Spy Finnegan

 Who's that peaking around the corner??

Lookout!  Santa brought Finnegan the tools he needs to be a real secret spy - a periscope...

 and walkie-talkies to use with your brother, whether he's right next to you or all the way at the park!

 As Finny tells me...

"Watch out - Secret Spy Finnegan is on the case!"
