Cute kids...

It's fun to watch Alayna develop her skills over time. She refused for the past three years of her life to have any interest in letters or numbers. Because of the fun Letter Factory DVD's that were recommended to us, she has learned them, sounds, etc. So it's been fun to teach her words, to sound out and put together. She recently has taken off with writing her letters. I pretty much can write any word down and she will copy it. I just had to take a picture of her name and Jacob's. It's fun to watch your kids learn!

Oh, just had to post this gappy tooth smile that is so cute. Also look at that natural mow hawk! Seriously, this kid is so cute. Another thing I need to document is Jake...my climber. I love how he is standing on top of the table! This happens all day everyday. He just needs his side kick Isaac to be up there with him. These boys jump and climb EVERYWHERE. I finally was done for the day saving them and removing them from the counter, table, freezer, etc. That I had to lock the chairs in his bedroom. No more climbing. Wrong...Jake tried to push the table over to the counter! He's too strong for his own good. I wish his body and limbs luck in staying safe. In fact I have to take a picture of his most recent black eye. Yes, he was jumping on his new bed and fell off and his eye landed straight into the handle on his dresser. So it looks like he is wearing bring pink eye shadow! What a tough kid.

It looks like I was lucky enough to receive some of Alayna's first works when she sent me a birthday card with "happy birthday to you" written inside balloon drawings. I've saved it so that, in the future, she can see what she created when she was just three.
