Roller Skating Party

We got to have Breanna's party at the Skating center. I hope all the girls had fun! She had 7 girls including her. She is very tough-- she fell many times, but still kept going. We got to have pizza and pop, along with Birthday cake. She got a lot of nice gifts. I hope it was special for her!

David found some

Well, David found some Morels. They were very tasty....Sauteed in butter. I am curious if he will post a picture or anthing. Lots of work, but taste so wonderful. Thank you mother earth and David. Happy hunting!!

Swimming lessons-Ashton

Ashton had his last swimming lesson. He had a chance to go down the slide, but was not interested in it so he sat and watched. His class was pike, he was the youngest guy in the class. I was very proud of him and he made a lot of improvement. We will probably wait on swimming classes-- for the summer.

Riley

Riley is got the army crawl down well. Yes last night he started crawling, he wants to be right there. He is quite the go getter and very strong boy. He is starting realize that he cannot be left out before he would just enjoy his toys and now he wants to be there with you--very cute. He is really quite a quick crawler. We are in trouble. It's gone too quickly!! He loves to babble and be tickled. He might be teething or working on teeth-probably won't get them until he's 1 like the rest, but he really was irritated and many bowel movements. It could have been what I ate....

Breanna's 7!!

Well, our baby girl is 7 and no longer a little one. :-( She had a busy birthday. Presents- bike, digital pet monkey we are still naming, a very nice and warm sleeping bag for cold tent nights in mountains-montana/colorado. She received clothes and flips flops, money! She was very pleased!! She bought treats for her class- cupcakes! Her classmates made a book for her, where they each wrote something special about her-very cute and sweet. She is a very compassionate and caring lady!!
She passed swimming lessons today (no longer a guppy)- so she is now a Minnow.
Breanna picked going to Valentino's for supper, she received a high 5 award! She got her picture taken, spinned the birthday wheel, and balloon-sung to,etc. The works!!
We watched the footage of this morning's opening gifts ceremony with david and video camara was acting up--maybe time for a new one??? But it really made Ashton and Breanna laugh- sounded like Breanna was talking chinese.

Bum Toe

Ashton had an injury on Sunday night with his toe-big toe on his left foot. The bathroom drawer fell on his big toe, leaving the nail bed back and blue. I think he might I have broken it. but there is not much you can do for those injuries. Tonight he mentioned that his toe/foot really hurt. It looks like it is a little infected, we are going to see the doctor tomorrow. Poor guy. But he is so tough. He hasn't really complained until now. He still really wanted to go to the Y and go swimming, etc.
Kids are amazing--they are better than the energizer bunny!!

Riley Crawling soon!!?!??

Riley is definitely getting closer to crawling. He can do a plank (a pilates/yoga move/hold). He also goes backwards very well and does 360 well. I need to do more footage with camcorder. He has grown up too fast. He is really into babbling these days as well. It is soo cute!! I think his sight has improved with farther distances.
Lately he has had lots of blow outs and think it is time to move up to Size 4 diapers!

David is getting ready for morel mushroom hunting. He really wants to find some. I hope he finds lots. Last year he spent some time on this hobby, but did not find as many as he would like. So I hope this year is a Gold pot year for him.

Report Card

Breanna brought home her report card from school today- she is an awesome student!!
She got all 3's and 4's. Very proud of her. She is a very motivate student and hard working!! She has only missed one day of school (due to snow skiing event) and one tardy--NOT bad, esp since David has to load up all the kids the majority of the time to get her to school by 8:15. Good JOB guys!!
David and I are working what we will get Breanna for her birthday on Wednesday. Hard to say. She wants roller blades, or the shoes that you can skate/roll on, she would like a digital pet, guitar,TV in her room... So we will see what we can find.

Micro Soccer

Breanna started her 2nd season of micro soccer with her dad coaching. It was fun to watch her. I felt bad though--her soccer shoes gave her blisters on the insides, higher on her ankles. poor thing!! Glad to see her play though!

Hiking

On Sunday we did many things and one of them was hiking out at Pioneers Park at the Nature Center very nice time to get out. The trees are very bare out there. We saw a fat squirrel, a bunny rabbit, walked over a bridge (which Ashton did not like). I feel very blessed to have such a wonderful fun family!! I love this!!

A very exciting thing at church is we got to go into the new auditorium/sanctuary. It blew my socks off. We were going to have to wait until Easter Sunday, but they wanted us to experience first before our guests. It made me wonder what Heaven will be like, this seemed to be just a glimpse of it.
