Boy in a dress? I think not!

Elizabeth got her headbands and flowers so now daddy can't call her his "boy in a dress" anymore. For the record, mommy never thought she looked like a boy. Another new development: Elizabeth is on all fours! She can scoot backwards well and we anticipate her going forwards any day now.

Just so I don't forget

Hey you two,

Just wanted you both to know that at my morning Recess today Austen played kickball – for the very first time! And he did AWESOME! I have a rule that when a new kindergartener or new student plays – especially the littler ones – that the opposing team are not allowed to get them out for the first day or two until they can learn and grasp how to play. So many of the older kids – 4th – 6th graders really pitched in and helped him.

Well, I didn’t even have to remind my older kids of that this year so when I was watching them play, they would let Austen get to the base even if they could have gotten him out. But Austen picked up on the game SO fast, he did great and he was all smiles!! :):):)

Just wanted to share that blessing with you today! :)

Ann

just spent 3 minutes being implored to "open the bundt" by Aaron until I realized he wanted me to unbutton his pants so he could go potty. Funny part is, his pants velcro instead of button.
