    Dance Festival

    No Comments

    The kids love the Dance Festival! We were a week behind this year in learning their moves but they all nailed it anyway. Also, Ben had to work – had an important meeting so he couldn’t come film the whole thing from the top of the ladder 🙁 But I got some good footage and wrangled the other 4 kids – thanks to Udine and Erica helping me.

    Maren and Millie. Gentry and Rose. These girls ask to play EVERYDAY. They can’t get enough of each other.

    Rose is SO CLOSE to reading! She has learned a lot from her online preschool.

    Look at this smile! I can just watch him for hours and hours…

    Once in a while we go out in the big stroller. They all fight about where they get to sit or who they want to sit by but we have fun.

    Aunt Christy came for a day! Millie clung to her. I love spending time with my family.

    Sometimes Millie just crashes, and sometimes she wears soccer jerseys and cleats on Saturdays 🙂

    Packer earned a BUG LUNCH!

    My baby! He can climb up the stairs whenever he wants! He tries to play Tetherball. He swings with his sisters! JUST SO BIG.

    We’ve had some nasty colds this month:

    Benji had the 5th grade economics fair. He sold Arcade plays on the big screen and some candy. Then he was so sweet to bring home treats for all of his family and a new shirt for Ray!

    Julia had Tiago come for show and tell!! EVERY BABY needs a chance at that.

    And then Ben got the garden put in!

    On Saturday the 21st we had a goodbye party for Ryan and Mary and family! So sad they left UT but excited for their future.

    This GUY!! He practices standing ALL the TIME and is adorable!

    Ben got a new game for his birthday: Incan Gold. We played Sunday night with the Hancocks and then the kids played again on Monday after school 🙂

    These girls have their own beds but they usually choose to be together… silly…

    This week we are doing our FIRST EVER SWIM LESSONS with the PG Swim Team. The kids are having a lot of fun.

    I cleaned the garage on Wednesday! The kids loved playing with everything I cleaned…

    AND THEN – WE ALL GOT SICK! Millie then Rose and Cali all started throwing up before bedtime! Then Benji and Packer kicked in by midnight and Ben started this morning. 40ish barfs. 5-10 each. Ray was the day before and Tiago has nasty diapers instead of throw up. I don’t know how I haven’t gotten it yet but I am grateful and glad that I was able to take care of my house of sickies today.
