Individual Update

Evan is growing up so fast.  I love his blond hair. He is my cuddle bug.  He is starting to use words a little more.  He LOVES sports.  He will play soccer all of the time.  He also enjoys t-ball.  He imitates the kids play and always wants to be included. He loves to play outside.  Food is his best friend.  Evan doesn't like strangers and isn't really friendly.  He still cries with babysitters but settles in pretty quickly.  I think he is growing up too fast.

Leah has fallen in love with dresses.  She wears one just about every day.  She loves pink and purses.  She has no problem keeping up with her brothers either.  She wants to be a pink power ranger for Halloween which is hard to find in the stores so far.  She loves to sing the alphabet and pretend to read.  She likes to try and get out of chores by asking for help.  She will also try to go slow so that everyone else will do more clean up then her.  Sneaky girl!  She isn't really interested in school stuff yet, but she does have plenty of time for it.  She is so fun and helps take care of her brothers.  

Joshua is loving his new school.  He loves the hands on science experiments. He enjoys reading, but sometimes goes to fast and doesn't always comprehend everything.  Joshua wants to be a power ranger for Halloween as well.  He likes to ride the bus.  He has terrible hand writing, so it is a good thing that he is getting faster at typing.  He loves to play with Dallin and jump on the trampoline.  He has been playing baseball quite a bit lately.

Michael just got a new job!  We are very proud of him.  He will be traveling a little more, but he will get to see his sister more frequently.  He has been busy making beds, and a toy chest.  He also made a basketball stand for the kids.  He is pretty amazing!

Dallin is liking first grade quite a bit.  He is doing wonderful with his reading.  We are working on his first chapter book.  He loves to argue with the books he reads.  For example we were reading a Thomas book and Thomas stopped to let ducks cross the tracks.  Dallin was like "Thomas would have never seen those in time."  He always analyzing everything he reads.  He has gotten a couple of sweet notes home from his teacher.  He is so good at school and when he ges home he can unleash his bottled up frustrations on us.  I am usually the one who he takes it out on.  It can be hard some days, and other days he as sweet as can be.  He always looks out for others.  

I am pretty blessed to have such an amazing family!  I love them so much!
