Aidan filled out a book at school about “my mom”; the highlights are:

My mom looks pretty when: she wears a dress [I never wear dresses, I own two…maybe]

For fun, my mom likes to: go to Sea World

My mom likes to shop at: H-E-B

If I had a million dollars, I would buy my mom: a dog

My mom is proud of me when I: listen

My mom cooks the best: cinnamon rolls [he spells Sinnamon Rools]

My mom’s favorite tv show is: the weather [this one cracks me up]

Two Snacks

Aidan just told me that because the bus was late, he needs two snacks – the bus was 10 minutes late but apparently it’s hard work waiting!

Conversations with Aidan

1) Upon hearing the ice cream truck aidan asked James "got any cash?"

2) After watching me sweep for a while, aidan asked "Whose birthday is it?". When I said that it wasn't anybody's birthday he asked me "then why are you cleaning?"

Clara - OCD???

Clara is sitting in her high chair drinking alternately from two different sippy cups. She picks on up, takes a drink, puts it down, picks the other one up, takes a drink puts it down, repeat.

They both fell and I picked them up and put them back in the “wrong” order. She switched them back. Water on the left, milk on the right.

Brandon's 9th Birthday

Brandon turned 9 this month. We celebrated at Main Event with a rock-climbing party.

Brandon free-climbing

Aidan's 1st venture onto the wall - he liked the "repelling" down part best

The crew...

Brandon, Colton, Devlin, Nachite, Dylan(?), Nathan, Keagan, Aidan Aaron, Macy, Allison, & Sunseaahrhay

Cake time! The volcano cake was made by Mom & Tom. The kids loved the "smoke" coming out of the top.

Post-cake sugar rush

Game Time

Clara had too much fun...

Clara playing

Some pictures of Clara goofing off at home - playing with her purses and smiling for the camera.

Clara loves crayons

Clara loves to take the crayons out of the crayon box (that yellow thing on its side) and scatter them all around

Ice Skating

In February, I took the boys ice skating. We all had a great time. Talk about a workout!
