Here's a picture of the kids with
cousins during Easter weekend. They're all growing so fast!Oh, the boys are SO ready to be done with school! Jimmy is getting more difficult to usher out to the bus! He wants to sleep longer, and stay home and play! Bowen is wanting to stay home and play more, too.
The kids have learned a lot this year:
Andrew is nearly diaper free! Mommy is doing a happy dance about that! Yay! He's still got a funny, silly sense of humor. He has lots of smiles, and sounds like the Pillsbury Dough Boy when he giggles :).
Emma is doing really well, too. She loves to dress up in cute and pretty clothes, and she loves to wear jewelry! She loves the necklaces and bracelets that she got from Grandma Mitchell recently. Emma is also doing great with her writing! I'm so excited at how well she's taken to it--she's drawing pictures and writing words daily! She'll be ready by the end of summer, I'm sure.
Jimmy is SO eager to do swimming lessons this summer. I think he knows that the local pool doesn't open until school is out...maybe that's why he's ready for summer to be here! Jimmy isn't as fond of school as I'd hoped, but he has learned to read this year, and his writing has improved a huge amount! He also has some very nice drawings of his favorite things--frogs, turtles, animals, etc. Jimmy likes to build forts, and team up with Andrew to play games. Jimmy is still a pretty social kid, but shy at times, too.
Bowen is excelling at school, academically. He's been in the 2nd grade reading level for about a month now. He is very fond of his teacher and many kids at school. He is also doing addition and subtraction, and can write his
numbers to well over 300...he probably can keep going, but runs out of time! He was asking me about "infinity" the other day...good grief! Where did he learn that!?! Bowen loves to swing at the school playground...he can get SO high!
Bowen has a few wiggly teeth, but so far none of the kids have lost any teeth yet.

I did finally get a quilt up on the quilt frame the other weekend. Now, to carve out some time to do more quilting!!!
As the weather stays nicer, it'll be eaiser to get pictures of the kids while they play. They just love playing outside!
hmm...what else is new? Not much...other than swimming lessons this summer, we don't have any firm plans for activities. If gas prices come back down, maybe a road trip will be in the works. We shall see!
