- Kyle took the boys to visit the office one weekend, they had fun playing air hockey!
- Last minute baby shower celebrating our piano teacher, Miss Holly!
- With the winter months comes sickness, I'm so used it now after 11 years of parenting :) Here we have various sick kids in sad little states, and their their exhilaration at feeling better and eating again, ha ha! My poor loves!
 |
| Van disaster - wheelbarrow crashed through the back glass - ugh!! |
- A day in the life of Marcus
 |
| Working on his preschool name, with a pirate hat of course |
 |
| You gotta clean your tools! |
- Our Reunion marriage group, celebrating at Chevy's!
- He's just a love
- A peek into how we cope with Marcus' big personality, ha ha!!!
 |
| Phase 1: indignation over perceived slight (siblings laughing and/or running for their life) |
 |
| Phase 2: rejection of niceness (siblings eye rolling but still waiting this out) |
 |
| Phase 3: the acceptance phase (siblings doing yoga, Marcus finds his peace) |
 |
| Alternate ending - finding a person to snuggle (his favorite) |
- We lost two chickens this winter. Our baby Lucky was eaten by a raccoon, our baby Zebra died of a longer, more mysterious illness (we even brought her inside but she didn't make it. Sad!!!) We had a "funeral" with my extended family for Lucky, per heartbroken Madeline's request. Everyone went around the room and shared what Lucky meant to them ;) It was soooooo sweet. I love my family!!
- Date nights continuing with the Broadway Series - Finding Neverland (I loved it)
- Sweeties love to find a good spot for reading (sometimes you even jam to music WHILE reading!)
 |
| Pokemon. All day. Every day. |
- Marcus celebrated his half birthday at preschool, and he REALLY wanted all six of us to participate in decorating his "All About Me" poster. "What is a word that describes you?": (he chose) HAPPY... so true!
- Marin and her BFF enjoying some lunch after their first TAG weekend event together (TAG is the gifted program in our district, Marin was recently accepted! They got to do an acting class, and here they practice their poses.)
- Max was awarded the "Compassion" award in his class, and was honored in front of the whole school assembly! (One student chosen per classroom) We are proud parents. Compassion is one of the most important things you need in life. He exemplifies this so well.
- Marin has been doing morning announcements for the school every Friday!
- And finally, the theme of my notebook this year *thank you Jen Hatmaker* - Bless this Mess!
