Life at Home

Little update on our other little munchkins, who thanks to awesome family are hopefully not being too neglected these days! Brielle is still loving Kindergarten every day and doing awesome! As always, way too smart for her own good – her teachers tell me she needs to be in 2nd grade! :) But she still loves it, and I’m so proud of the sweet and happy girl she is at school. This is a picture of her in her school t-shirt for spirit day. Samuel is our amazing puzzle-doer these days! He has such a problem-solving mind… We can’t believe the big puzzles he can already put together all by himself – he’ll sit there forever working on a puzzle until he can figure it out! He’s such an organized problem-solver – the questions he asks us these days out of nowhere are hilarious – that mind is always thinking and just trying to figure everything out – we can’t believe all the questions he is always coming up with for us… Heaven help us when he gets older and we don’t know the answers anymore! And our little miss priss, Colette, as always – I took this picture of her in front of her closet because it is her favorite place to raid and find new clothes, shoes, and especially dresses! She is very opinionated about the outfits she wears now – very hard to persuade to wear anything other than a dress – she loves to figure out what matches, and pick what she wants to wear every day… And as is obvious from the picture – she loves to pose! (My dream come true!) :)

How thankful we were for my mom staying with us for 3 weeks to help out right now – making this a fun experience for the kids rather than a sad one! And awesome Aunt Athena came to help us for 5 days as well – such lifesavers!! We were so thankful for their help!
