Table Food

Asher has been our least interested in table food, but all of the sudden, the bottle is just not enough for him. Tonight I decided to just give him exactly what we were eating, and he loved the hamburger corn and tomato.

Spider Baby

When it got warm and we started putting Asher in shorts instead of pants, he started crawling like this a lot of the time.  Funny kid.

Crazy Hair Day

Today was crazy hair day.  We spray painted before coming to school. My boys' hair didn't show the colors as well because it is longer.  I asked if Ethan's friends' liked his hair and he said, "they thought it was the awesomest AND Lorenzo said I looked like a rockstar!". Fun times!

Take 1

Mike says he likes this one better, so I'm posting it too.

Proof

Here is the video proof that wouldn't attach to my last post.

Article of Faith

Benton was asked to recite the sixth Article of Faith this week in Primary. He was resistant to learn another besides the second one because he did that one awhile back, so I offered him a trip to Scooptacular, and, what do you know, he memorized it!

11 Months

This cutie turned 11 months old last week and still won't hold his own bottle for more than about 30 seconds.  I guess as a third child who gets carted along for all of his brother's activities, and handles it so well, he can't be  blamed for wanting me to spend a little time on just him a few times a day.

Smartphone

When I am texting, my phone automatically gives a list of words I can choose from that are likely to come next.  For example, if type in my house number, it automatically comes up with each part of my address after that.  Tonight I was texting my mom about the fact that Benton's ear drum ruptured today.  I typed in "Benton's" and my phone suggested "has" "new" and "ear".  I wondered if that was a coincidence that "ear" would come up for Benton, so I tried Ethan's name.  My phone suggested "school" "teacher" and "pickup".  For Asher, it suggested "baby" and "smile".  Smart phone indeed!

Learning

I'm trying to do more teaching with Benton since there is no preschool this year.  He is 3.5 as of last month and can now write his name in lowercase (he first learned in all caps). I also have been doing a reading program with him and let him try a Bob book today. This was his first read through the first Bob book (I only recorded the end of the book because my phone was having issues, and he did say, "The End!" right after I stopped recording).  He his constantly surprising me.

"Now-a-Days"

I do not remember learning how to edit like this in Kindergarten! But, this is Ethan's homework that he can do all by himself!

4th Annual Egg Hunt

This was my fourth year putting on an Easter Egg Hunt for my friends.  Everyone contributes filled eggs and I make sure they are hidden on time.  This year we had fewer eggs and more hiders, so we finished really early.  It is always a fun morning.
