"Jamie" Preschool

 This year the girls call our neighborhood preschool "Jamie" preschool.  I assume this is because they love Jamie and she was the first teacher AND  it is held at her mom's house.  Here the girls are playing during free time.

 The lesson this week was about the alphabet and Elizabeth Maycock was the teacher and I was the co-teacher.  She made bread with the initial of their first names for snack.

Each child also received a packet of cards with each letter of the alphabet on it.  This has been great for us to keep in the car and review the letters when we are waiting for Carter to get out of school.

First Jr. Jazz Game

Carter had his first Jr. Jazz basketball game.  He made two baskets.  Sadly, those were the only points his team made.  Carter is really good at dribbling and the coach always has him take the ball down the court.  The people behind us were calling him a little John Stockton.  I told him that, but he doesn't know who that is.  He also loves to steal the ball.

Mudballs

Serena is my outside girl!  She often gets her snow stuff on and goes outside and will wander around playing by herself for a long time.  Even the lack of snow does not stop her. 

Cuddle Time

Aleeya is copying how Serena always lays with Spencer, so that I will take a picture.  They pretend to be asleep.  So precious!

Decorations

Serena took this picture, but I thought I would use it since I love having these pictures in the kitchen. The background for the pictures of the girls is their lovey blankets.  I have also updated all of the photo frames in the house with new pictures.  This is quite an accomplishment because the last picture in the 8X10 frames was of when Aleeya was 6 months old. 

Teeth Cleaning

Carter, Serena, Aleeya and I all had teeth cleaning appointments.  Everyone does great, even though Aleeya doesn't look too thrilled. 

Both Carter and Serena each had one cavity, between their teeth, so I bought those floss picks so that we can improve on that. 

The surface teeth looked great, which is good because they all brush their teeth by themselves.

Serena has already had her cavity filled and she did great, they didn't even use the laughing gas.

Pictures of Perfection!

 Spencer at Chuck E. Cheese

 Serena is so thoughtful, he was awake when she put this on, and don't worry I took it off quickly!  To his credit, Spencer is SO good at handling the "love" of his sisters.  His calm personality is a blessing.

I am addicted to holding this beautiful child.  Sometimes it is like I can feel my heart growing bigger and I feel desperate to enjoy these moments.
