A little of this, A little of that

Even though I haven't been blogging, a lot has been going on in our home. Susanna and Nathan had their last orchestra concert. They both did great.

Clara's class invited their moms to a special mother's day program in their classroom. It was so sweet and fun to be with her. She even made me promise not to bring Eliza or Amelia. It was just us.

This is one of her best friends Hannah.

Singing her little heart out.

Clara lost 3 teeth in a just a couple of days and now she doesn't have much help with her eating. She was pretty excited.

This big brother has become the resident puller. He has pulled out two of Clara's teeth.

Justin got recognized at Academic Night again. I kept threatening to run up and take a good picture but he made me promise that I would not do it. So, this is the best I could do. Way to go Justin.

Nathan has been begging to play soccer for 2 years and we (and I mean his dad) finally got our act together and signed him up. He loved it and had a great season. He played goalie a lot and did a great job.

Eliza took swimming lessons with Miss Kim. She started out a little shaky and now loves to swim and is getting pretty good.

She has so much fun swimming around in circles and making me a little nervous.

She got to be in class with little Tess. They had so much fun together.

Getting ready for her dive.

The last day of school is tomorrow and we are all so excited and ready for summer.

Amelia and her brothers

So, I can tell that it has been too long when Grandma Garner starts asking if we are going to blog again. I have a few posts to do but this one was pretty sweet. Justin and Amelia are buddies and he loves to play with her. I think he is already trying to teach her things. He plays peek a boo with her. She has both her brothers wrapped around her little finger.

Today Nathan was babysitting and Amelia crawled right over and climbed up on him and went to sleep. What is a boy to do but not move for a really long time. Notice he is awake and doesn't know what to do about her. Makes me laugh.

He is not the softest pillow. Look at that chub.

Amelia will be 1 in 2 weeks and we are all completely in love with her. She is getting to be happy all the time. Justin is trying every day to get her to walk and she will have none of it. If you hold her finger she will walk but the minute you let go she slowly buckles. It's kind of funny. I think she will be running in no time. She is really into peek a boo and clapping her hands and is learning to blow kisses and loves to wave goodbye. She is also a total flirt and really likes boys and dads. Because she has so many people that love her at dance, she will pretty much go to anyone which is a first for my kids and totally wonderful. We all have so much fun with her.

I do her hair, I promise. This is the end of a long day. It is getting to the in between stage of what do I do now?

I love the twinkle she has in her eyes.
