Kids, kids, kids

My posts have been so few and far between lately that a lot has been going unreported. Mostly by the kids. First off, Jackson is growing and growing. All of his pants are too short for him! That's frustrating to me, but great for him. He's one of the tallest in his class and he loves being able to reach lots of things. He's also strong enough to man-handle Max, which is really helpful. Most of all, he loves to learn and explore and have fun. His favorite primary song is Follow the Prophet.

Sydney is in dance and getting ready for her big recital in May. Of course, at 3 they aren't really advanced, but they sure are cute and she's learning the building blocks for later. She loves her ballerina and tap shoes and follows directions really well. She's a headstrong little sucker but once she sets her mind to something, you can't distract her. She loves playing with Jackson and is quick to say "I love you" and give lots of hugs and kisses.
Kate is still our little sweetheart. She is so happy all the time! She occasionally gets upset about something, but is quick to return to her smiley self...even after Max has tried to knock her down! He loves trying to play with her! She is talking up a storm these days, though we only understand 2 or 3 words in her 10 word sentences. She also repeats everything we say...another good reason to watch our words! And yes, she just turned two. The next post will be of her birthday, but I have to get the pics from grandma!
