family update!

Obviously blogging has been on the back burner lately! 

{C&T:} Im going to brag on Cale for a minute.  He has been doing awesome with working out/eating healthier and he's lost around 30lbs!! I've lost a few too but um, its no 30! :) C has also been doing well at work and received a promotion! Proud of him! We're gearing up to take a 'honeymoon' in June.  We're dropping the kiddos off at Camp Meme/Granddad and heading to Florida! We're so super excited to have 5 whole days to be lazy! :) I am planning to be on next years MOPS steering team! Excited :) I really enjoyed it while in MI and it was a great way to meet new friends.  We were supposed to go to the Brad Paisley concert last night but O was running fever so we decided to stay home.  Of course when his meds kicked in he was good as new but we had already canceled with our sitter. Thankfully she is able to come next Friday, C and I are going to go to Wine and Canvas for my birthday! 

We had a good visit to MI a couple of weekends ago.  Short but sweet.  My friend Tiffany had a baby shower and our friend Kristin was coming from CT so we wanted to make the trip to see our friends! The boys loved spending the night in a hotel and seeing their old friends.  

Last weekend the boys had a great big surprise waiting for them in the back yard! Their new swing set! So so thankful for all who helped put it together! Thank you Meme and Granddad for early birthday presents! They love love love it!! 

{Owen:} This boy grew an inch in just a few months! His 5T pants are too short! He lost his first tooth in April and his adult tooth is already coming in.  He is currently missing his first track meet due to mentioned above fever.  He is really enjoying track.  Its a Christian bases group so each week they have a memory verse, O has a crazy good memory and can remember the verse after me saying it only a couple of times! Its been good for me to memorize them too.  I had a parent/teacher conference with his teacher a few weeks ago.  They said he is doing great! He is doing 2nd grade math and is doing well with his reading! He has just a couple more weeks of school then its SUMMER time! We're going to make a good Summer bucket list this year and hope it isnt so hot like last year! His current "intos" are basketball (the Pacers!) and sports cards.  He just got a new binder to put them into for filling up his marble jar. 

{Jonah:} This boy also grew an inch in just a few months. He makes me laugh, a lot.  I need to be better about documenting the funny things he says.  He is still into Super Heros and now Hero Factories.  I spent my whole morning and afternoon putting all of their Hero Factories together for them and a week later they're in pieces again :) We're going to do a year of preschool homeschool starting in the Fall! 

{Ezra:} He is 20 months old today! Nuts! Impossible he is almost 2! He has recently discovered the stairs so we had to bust out the baby gate.  And just today he learned how to climb on the ottoman and took a good fall off.  He too makes me laugh a lot.  His little facial expressions are too much! He still is into doggies and loves pulling around his dog on a leash.  He also loves playing with the kitchen, think he's gotten the most use out of it!
