spring break is here


Although it's certainly not a break for me ;-). We ended the day Sunday making easter bunnies out of tin cans which turned out cute. In the morning we dyed easter eggs which was quite fun. the colors weren't dynamic but the kids had fun dying their fingers, paper towels, and the cardboard under their egg dye. All in all the eggs turned out like a 6 and 4 year old did the work and they were delighted! It turned into a beautiful day so we spent a good deal of the afternoon at the park with one of Heather's friends then finished up playing a few games before bed. Heather has become a good "reader" and read a whole book that her grandma gave her. Charlie doesn't want to be left behind and is actually very good at sounding out short words and both are good at using the pictures to determine what is going on in the story. Camreon is sitting up pretty well on his own and playing with toys that are left nearby. Left to his own he will not be in the same spot if he gets the chance to wiggle and squirm his way around--no crawling yet but the determination is there.
