Well this last month as been a busy one. We have had so much fun. Jakob finished his football season. Conner and Alexa have been loving preschool and doing well at it. Alexa is having boy trouble, she has 2 boys that constantly try to kiss her at preschool. Her teachers tell me that she is really nice to them and tells them to stop. Which I am shocked about cause at home if any of us try to come near her she screams (reminds me of Laura) and starts hitting us. So I'm sure one of these days the teacher will tell me that she wrestled the boys to the ground and smacked them.
Colin and Jakob have been so busy with school, and they both amaze me. Colin just seem to handle working full time and school full like its no big deal. And I am so proud of him every day. Jakob definitely follows in his dads footsteps, school is so easy for him. He most certainly got his math skills from his dad. Jakob loves math and both his teacher and I have been amazed at how quickly he has picked it up and excelled. I will take credit for his reading success. He loves to read and once again is well beyond his level. He also has been having some girl trouble, as in which one is the cutest, which one likes him the most. Apparently the list is long. Conner is just doing so good. He of course is around while Jakob does his homework or hears as we quiz Jakob on math problems or spelling words, so he is picking up on them as well. He can now do all the basic addition between 0 - 10. And is learning how to spell some basic words. Good job Mr.
I am just plugging along. Perfecting the pregnant waddle!! I am thankful (as is Colin and the kids I'm sure) that I am feeling better and back at cooking and baking and keeping food in the house. I have been loving fall and enjoying making all those yummy recipes that I keep finding on food blogs. I also was able to help with our wards super Saturday and I think it turned out great and I came home with some really fun stuff!!
So here a quite a few pictures of our adventures in this last month, sorry so many. Our family decided to be the Seahawks for Halloween. The boys were football players, Alexa the cheerleader, Colin the coach and I the ref. It was a lot of fun and we ran across lots of Seahawks fans here in good ol' Rexburg.
Colin got to go be part of potato harvest for one of his classes. But some how we only scored a small back of them.
after a long day of filling 400 bags with popcorn. Next year I wont be so excited to help out with stuff at the school. Lesson definitely learned .
And here is what happens while I take a shower. Conner and Alexa set up a tea party or more like a milk and cookies party. They took a bunch of my unfrosted sugar cookies, opened all the pop tarts, opened candy that was for trick or treaters, and poured milk. And yes and don't forget the Center piece of pine cones and leaves. They have been trained well :)
