Quick Catch up

So thing's have been pretty crazy around here just gettin back in the groove of things...let me tell you it was sooo hard coming back home to a 60 degree difference in temperature! So I am (I really am) still working on our vacation post, I am going day by day, because one of these day's I will turn my blog into a book....so kinda like a big scrapbook for the kid's. I want to make sure I get everything in there :) So for now, I'm just gonna give you a quick catch up on what's been going on in our house lately.

Since coming home our kid's have become someone else, Quaid is now OFFICIALLY a Jedi (he went on stage to do this Jedi traning and fought Darth Vader) He built 2 light saber's while we were there and couldn't put it down for DAYS maybe even a week. Either way he was totally convinced that he had to continue his Jedi training for when he get's bigger to go off to the real Jedi Training. It was soo funny, yet concerned me a bit (he was really into it...very serious) As you will see in this video ( sorry it's sideway's, I always forget about that...I do figure it out though)

(He probably would have gone longer if Bailey wasn't being ornary...he takes it very seriously)


Now, Bailey also has changed as well, although she is very girly as it is, well now she's a Princess...so she's extra girly now and is loving her new dress & glass slipper's she got at Disney. She wear's her glass slipper's wherever we go (actually I came in one morning and she was sitting in the living room trying to figure out which glass slipper's she should wear??) and one day she wanted to wear her crown...lol I let her...she's only a 3 yr old Princess once!!







We had a Great St. Patrick's Day, which was on a Tuesday this year...that's our Storytime @ Starbuck's & coffee with Grammy date's. So we had also invited Aunt Jewy (all Bailey's L's are W's) & Paige to come along. It was fun to see how much Paige had already grown, Bailey was anxious to read to Paige the book's we got her at Disney. I actually think Bailey just wanted to read them to herself...as you can see she's not really letting Paige see the pics..lol Either way, Paige was a little fussy but she would be happy one minute, then all of a sudden put her bottom lip out..it was soo cute ;)







Oh and it was in the 70's on St. Patty's Day too, hence the Summer clothes :)






Quaid has been doing very well in school and continue's thriving in reading. He also get's a 100% on all his Spelling tests (he get's that from Mommy), Math too is one of his favorite subjects because it's sooo easy he says ;) Speaking of he is becoming quite the "know it all" lately, he asked me the other day in the Dr.'s office what was my favorite reptile was?? Hmmm, I said frog, then he immediately starts laughing and say's, "No Mom, frogs are Amphibian's", I say "Oh right"!!! We are constantly quizzed on many thing's daily...it's so funny that he think's he can outsmart us ;) I also wanted to share his Extra Credit Project that he did, he got on the computer and researched Canadian Animals and put this together...he was soo PROUD and I was also very PROUD of him. He is a very eager learner and catches on quickly to new things, especially the computer.....it's crazy that he's researching things on the computer now...he's getting too big!!!



Bailey is of course a Princess now, and is such a happy girl!! (most of the time) She wakes up usually before anyone and come's in our room with a big smile and say's "Snuggle"...ahhh, I wish these day's lasted forever. Then she proceeds to ask for "Breafkast" (yes it's spelled wrong because that's how she say's it..and I love it) She is very busy during they day caring for her babies...usually they come to breakfast as well, bathing them, putting them to sleep, playing with them..it's soo cute to listen to her play :) When not taking care of her babies, we are playing her favorite "Cootie" game, playing Doctor, teacher, baker and of course dress up.


Everything else has been good around here, now only if Spring would come SOON!!! We have had quite the Winter and are definitely ready to play outside again :) I am hoping to finish the Disney post soon and hope to keep up better on here!!!
