This week...

Poor Aubs has been so sick this week. She has had a really high fever since Saturday, along with headaches, sore throat and a horrible cough. She has been so sick, I kept her home from school each day this week so far. Today she seems to be on the mend and I am tempted to keep her home again tomorrow. She has been getting ansy being at home even feeling as bad as she has been , she misses her teacher and her friends. She really loves school and is missing her dance and soccer activities as well. I hope no one else gets it and that she feels better by the weekend.  She is still my little beauty even being such a sicky.

Caleb presented his National History Day project last night and man, I am so happy that it  is done. Papa Phil helped Caleb make the board out of plywood and make the sign look so good. Caleb painted it all and  Me and him stayed up late one night putting it all together. Papa Terry sent his cool coin from Hawaii for him to use as a primary source on his board too. It took a village to put this thing together, so here it is...

I am so proud of Caleb! He did all the research and put a big paper together about Pearl Harbor. He had started out with a different idea but ended up at the last minute changing it because of his interest in Pearl Harbor. He added some pictures of our trip to Hawaii when we got to go and actually see it in person, so he has a personal connection with it and wanted to share that through his project. He gets to represent Hermosa next week at Regionals and if he places there, he will move on to state that is in April. Great job Cal!

Our Birthday Girl

Our baby girl turned 3 on Wednesday! Miss Carly is growing up so much. She seems to have even over night. Since all of her siblings have had their birthdays the past 6 months, she has been counting down  and waiting patiently for her special day. She talked about her pink cake that she wanted and her "berbay" presents for weeks. She wanted everything princess and got some great new things she loves. She woke up so early on her birthday. Mitch had gone early to get her some donuts and so we sang Happy Birthday to her and let her blow out three candles on her donuts. After we sang to her she said "Thank you for my berbay." She was just so excited and super adorable all day.
 

We are so blessed to have this little gem in our family. Carly likes to ....

Baseball Try Outs

Yesterday Caleb went to his first day of High school baseball try outs. He was really nervous but ended up having a good day! He impressed the coaches with his hitting. Its going to be a very long month of practice but I hope even though he is an 8th grader that he will make the C-team and get the opportunity to play. Keeping our fingers crossed Caleb! We are super proud of you!

Teefers

 
Last week Caleb got his braces on. He has to wear them for 2 years and seems to be adjusting well to them. I think he looks older with them on. Crazy to think he will be almost 16 when he gets them off.

And then out of nowhere, this chic lost her first tooth!! The tooth fairy even came and brought her $5. Lucky duck. Brynley is just growing up so fast.
