Spring Break

And it's soccer camp for Jordan. Everyday, rain or shine. And boy did it rain yesterday. My poor guy was soaked, but that didn't matter to him, because he was playing his favorite game. Today Ma and Papa will take you to a movie when camp is over. Logan's not sure if he's going to go. He's such a homebody. It's funny. He gets excited to somewhere, but almost as soon as we are there, he wants to go home. Unless of course it's to Markus's house.

Easter is coming this weekend. Neither of you have really mentioned it. Jordan because he's not a big chocolate person, and Logan, well, probably because he doesn't realize it yet. I can predict how this is going to go. Jordan will have a basket of eggs that will last him until next Easter and Logan will have a basket of eggs that might last till the next day. Logan's are chocolate boy. Of course if the weather is good we will go to Easter in the Park. The Easter Bunny will be there and there will be lots of rides for the kids. I'll post pictures of that next week.

One thing I wanted to mention was that on Saturday night we had some friends over to play Rummoli. Jordan's now at the age where he understands how to play, so we let him play a few rounds with us. I was so proud to watch him use two hands while he was playing. It's pretty amazing to think how his hand was and to see now how it is. I should post some progress pictures. Yeah...I'll go through my pictures tonight and see what I can come up with.

That's all for now.

Happy 4th Birthday Logan

Saturday we celebrated you for becoming the next member of our family. On March 14th,2004 I put Jordan to bed and kissed him good night. That would be the last night that I would have only 1 little boy to kiss goodnight. The next morning Daddy and I said goodbye to Ma and Papa as we were on our way to the hospital. We were so excited. You came into the world with a huge scream. That scream is one of the most beautiful noises. You were beautiful. Perfect little round head. We were in total awe over you.

You were a very active baby in my tummy. At all hours of the night you kicked and moved around. Funny....isn't that just how you are now? My go getter! You have an agenda and that's what you are doing. Nothing gets in the way, except mommy's stern voice. I love listening to you talk. You articulate your thoughts and feelings so well. You love printing. You are always wanting us to sit down and show you letters and ask how to write them, then you copy them perfectly. You amaze me. And numbers....you love to count. You really enjoy preschool. I really thought that you would be to shy, but you've made friends and adore your teachers. Cooking class was another fun time for you. And wow! You sure made mommy a yummy lunch.

You and your brother are mommies pride and joy. Every moment I live is for you two. I'm truly honored to be your mother. You are a very polite boy. You know to behave when we are visiting people, yet at home, well...a holy terror! You adore your big brother and get very mad when he won't play with you. You are very sensitive and your feelings get hurt very easily. I guess you are alot like mommy that way. And I think my favorite thing about you is your sense of humor. You are definitely like Daddy there. You will turn anything you can into a joke. Just last week and I asked you what the movie was that you watched at preschool. You told me it was a secret. You wouldn't tell any of it. It was your secret. Well, a couple hours later, you told us that you didn't remember what it was. So your way of telling us that you didn't remember it was that you told us you didn't remember. Mommy does alot of laughing every day because of you and your brother.

So, after saying all that, I really wish you the best 4th year of you life. I hope that all you wished for on your birthday comes true. I love you to pieces punky doodle.

Love

Mommy

August?? That's the last time that I found time to update this blog. Wow! I'm pathetic! Apparently playing pogo games is more important than blogging about my children. That's so not true. It's been so hectic. Why do I say it's been hectic? It's always hectic!! 2 darling boys, and man do they keep me busy.

So here it goes: September Jordan started Grade 3. I'm still in shock over it. He's done so well. Spelling is great, reading is getting there, and math, well my poor man doesn't have a great mentor. Mom and Dad both suck at it. Despite that he's really starting to get it. It took a little while, but now I think it's all good. His teacher is absolutely wonderful. You've really got to admire a teacher that takes the time after dinner to call you at home to let you know how your child is doing.

Also in September, my little Logan started Preschool. The picture at the top is his first day. He was the same teachers that Jordan had when he went there and he loves those two ladies. He's really well behaved at school (which is often hard for me to believe..lol) and loves going. He's made alot of friends, but Logan's alot like Jordan in the fact that he's kind to everyone, but only has 1 or 2 close friends. Markus next door is his best friend and although they don't go to the same preschool, they are best buds. Logan's a smart cookie. He LOVES numbers. He counts to 30 no problem, no all his ABC'S, can spell and write his name and recognizes numbers and letters when he sees them. Recently he's been very proud of the fact that he knows his left from right. Every chance he gets he tells us to turn right, go left, etc. I love it!!

Christmas was wonderful and white!! The boys thought that was the best! Jordan got his Wii, and Logan got the games for his DS that he wanted.

That is all I will post for now, but I'm going to sit down and update what's happened in the New Year tomorrow. So check back for more in a couple days!

Love
