Goodbye Pre-K

Kate had her end of the year show yesterday.  Each Pre-K class sang about a Jewish holiday.  Kate and her class sang about Hannukah.  It is hard to believe that she will be moving on to Kindergarten next year.  Enjoy the show!!

Ben Speaks

When asked how old he is Ben replies "I big two."

Ben's Track

Ben has recently started to use toys and really play with them.  He makes car noises, moves things around, and makes the "people" talk.  Here he is with a train track that he built himself.  As can be seen, he is very proud of himself.

Flower Children

Kate is preparing for her fourth time around as a flower girl.  This time it will be for her Auntie Kerri and Uncle Andy's wedding in July.  Her dress came in the mail today so I had her try it on to make sure it fit.  Ben saw that she was putting on a fancy dress and decided that he also needed to put one on as well.  That boy does not like to be left out of anything!!

Kid Funnies

A couple of funnies from the kids.

Upon arriving a a park that overlooks the ocean Ben calls out "yook (look), Mama, yook.  A pool."

After asking me what unforgettable means Kate says "kind of like we just had an unforgettable earthquake."

Going for a Ride

Ben got a lift from his big sister today.  Ben thought this was the funniest thing and was laughing so loud  I could hear him all the way inside.  Ben adores his big sister and in return she tattles on him and then smothers him with kisses.

Back on Track!

I know it has been a long time since there was an update but between visitors and finals there has been little time.  

Kate is slowly inching towards the end of preschool and is talking about all the things she will do in Kindergarten.  We drive by the school often and she always yells "there is my big girl school!"  She read her first book the other night and I was proud beyond words.
Ben is talking up a storm.  He is stringing three, four, and sometimes five words together.  He is very savvy and always wants what his sister is getting, mostly candy. He can float on his back and loves to go to the pool. He is getting so big.  I can't believe that he will also start school in the fall.
