Catching up

Wow! Sorry it has been so long since my last post! I've been meaning to get on here the past couple of weeks, but I just haven't been able to find the time. Life is good. I'll start by telling you what the kiddos have been up to lately.
Ashlyn is loving school. We've had birthday parties and some sort of adventure almost every weekend. She has grown up so much since starting school back in August. She is reading on her own, simple books that is, and is able to count to 100. Now that it's warming up, she loves to play outside nearly every afternoon if the weather permits. Her favorite activities are coloring and doing anything crafty. She loves to dance and do flips from one room to the next. Her favorite TV show is Spongebob. She has a fit if she isn't able to watch at least one show before bed. (insert eye roll) She is my quiet, but very sneaky child.
Brennan is my VERY LOUD child! He has no idea what quiet means. ha! He absolutely LOVES music, and would dance to anything! His favorite song is Imma Be by the black eyed peas. I am so tired of hearing that song because if he hears it once you have to play it over and over again unless you are prepared for a major meltdown! =) He loves any and every kind of ball. We have hundreds of nice expensive toys, but he doesn't even know that half of them exist. All he cares about are balls.................basketballs, baseballs, footballs, soccer balls, bouncy balls, any kind of ball and the kid is happy as can be. His favorite activities are dancing, balls, EATING, and anything that Ashlyn is doing. He wants to be just like his big sister.................this annoys the you know what out of Ashlyn!
The pictures above were taken at Skateland. Oh the memories! Startown had skate night this past Friday night. Ashlyn got the hang of it pretty quick. Brennan on the other hand did not like the fact that he could not control his feet from rolling instead of walking. He didn't want anything to do with those skates. ha! I figured that I would be able to skate with the best of them....................I mean we used to go there all of the time when I was growing up. Boy was I wrong! I was TERRIBLE! It took me a few rounds until I felt ready enough to be Ashlyn's crutch. I mean................. I didn't want to be the one making her fall! LOL!
