Will's Letter to Santa.

Translation:

For Christmas, I want gameboy tapes. I want Sonic the Hedgehog and Mario and I want a big Nerf gun and an electric guitar. How are your reindeer?

When asked by her teacher...

...what she was thankful for, Abby said:

Annual Day of Baking

Every year my mom comes over and we bake Christmas cookies all day long.

Just some documentation of the day. :)

Halloween 2006

Just a bunch of pics...

Will is 7 now!

Will turned 7 last Friday and we had a busy weekend of celebrating. We had family over on Friday night and then a small 'kid costume party' on Saturday.

Beach pics!

Just a cute clip of E reading a book at Grandma's

Update and some pics...

Abby has adjusted to the school drop-off. She now wishes she had school every day, not just M,W,F. She is doing great with her letters and numbers and is starting to recognize more words other than her name.

Will is doing great in first grade. He's had 4 spelling quizzes and all 4 have been 100%!! He's reading us books every night. It's pretty neat!

Ethan is just a funny kid. The other night he picked up one of his board books and held it out flat on his hand and yelled "Pizza!!". I have no idea where he comes up with half of the stuff he says. He's really fun. :) He's recognizing some letters and numbers and likes to sing "We Will Rock You" thanks to Will always singing a first grade interpretation of that song.

Anyway, here are some recent pics. Mostly of E because he tolerates the camera more...

Abby's first day of pre-school

She didn't want me to leave (she was telling me that in the last photo).

We'll see how it goes on Wednesday.
