May

Oh boy! I've been a HUGE slacker!!! I'm going to try and catch up a bit here....

May was GREAT-Brooklyn graduated from pre-school on May 27, 2010. She had the best teacher, Teacher Karleigh and just loved every minute of pre-school. I loved having pre-school as a constant bribe for good behavior, because the thought of not going would prompt the best behavior from her. She learned so much at school, she knows all her letters and numbers and can write her name (mostly). She learned a BUNCH of songs and memorizes them so quickly! I'm so proud of her love for school. She just loves to learn. She is enrolled in pre-school again in the fall and then we're trying to decide to get her into kindergarten early or not. It's one of those things we'll decide as it gets closer. Above are a few shots from her pre-school program. It was ADORABLE!!! I love the last one, it looks like they are doing a break dance routine, but really it's "I'm a little tea pot" but Cash fell over.

Boston had a great month too. He is growing so fast. This month he learned that it is cute to play shy. He also has developed the "stranger danger". He's completely a mamma's boy. She loves to be held and cuddled, but the second he's done he's DONE. Whenever I go out with the kids the most frequent comments I hear and "Wow! They look so much alike" and "What a happy baby!" I always reply, "When he's happy he's HAPPY and when he's mad he's MAD" there's not much in between so far. I can always tell when something is bothering him because he makes it KNOWN. Brooklyn loves to plat with him and I always know when he's being too rough or hard because he voices his frustration loudly. If only Brooklyn would understand the screaming is not in delight but in annoyance!! He's turning into a good sleeper. He's on 100% bottle now (FREEDOM!!) and he's sleeping better because of it. Still working on all through the night and in his own bed. Small steps I guess.

I had my birthday this month. It was great! I got breakfast in bed. Brooklyn was SO EXCITED to give me breakfast in bed. She thought it was the coolest thing ever!! Greg is studying hard for the CPA exam. He's keeping busy training for Hood to Coast again this year and work and studying. I guess the theme for us is busy busy busy.
