Spring Days

We have had an enjoyable April. Natalie is continually amazing me with her creativity and knowledge. Right now, she is working on a pretty "flower cup." She is loving her kindergarten unit on the solar system. The other day Natalie told me a lot of information about the planets after only a day of learning about them in class. I was very impressed. Through our parks and recreation department, she has been taking swimming lessons and is really enjoying a science class. They look at lots of neat things underneath microscopes. For school, she has quickly read through a number of American Girl books this week. Outside, Natalie enjoys doing cartwheels and riding scooters.

Jocelyn is entertaining us with all of her new "tricks." She started clapping about a week ago. At night, she loves doing this to keep herself awake. She has recently started to take a few steps without holding on to anything. When Natalie plays and encourages her, she really likes to practice her walking skills. Jocelyn is a very smiley child. She does get a bit sad when I do not allow her to play with outlets, electrical cords, and the shades in the house. I am sure we will have a lot of fun when Natalie is home all day once summer vacation is here.

Baby Fish and the Dolphin

This past weekend, we went up to the Green Bay area. We enjoyed a fun weekend with family and friends. The girls also had a good time in the pool on Saturday. This was Jocelyn's first experience in the water. We believe she thoroughly enjoyed her time in it because she stayed in the water for about 2 hours. Natalie had a good time going down the waterslide and playing with her friend Brooke.

Happy Easter 2010

He is Risen! He is Risen Indeed! We had a wonderful Easter going to church and then a day up North. Natalie had fun doing an egg scavenger hunt. We all enjoyed a great Easter dinner. And then Natalie had a good time playing marbles with Grandma. I believe Jocelyn enjoyed her first Easter as well.
