Caleb's Poem

Caleb wrote this poem in class last week and I thought it was wonderful. So I am sharing it with everyone. He definately has his daddy's writing talent. He seems so mature for his age. He has such an old spirit in a little boy's body! The picture was with the poem, which went perfectly with it, since he was wearing a baseball shirt!

I AM CALEB
I WONDER ABOUT GOING TO HAWAII
I HEAR MY FRIEND'S TALKING
I SEE GOD'S NATURE
I WANT TO BE A BASEBALL PLAYER.
I AM CALEB

I PRETEND TO BE A SUPERHERO.
I FEEL EVERYTHING.
I TOUCH THE GRASS.
I WORRY ABOUT DYING.
I CRY WHEN SOMEONE DIES.
I AM CALEB.

I UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING IN SCHOOL.
I ALK ALOT ABOUT BASEBALL.
I DREAM ABOUT BEING RICH.
I TRY NOT TO BE MEAN TO MY LITTLE SISTERS.
I HOPE TO BE A BETTER SON AND OLDER BROTHER.
I AM A BASEBALL PLAYER AND AN AMERICAN.

Shredding it up

Mitch took Caleb snowboarding yesterday at Hesperus. Thye both enjoyed the day together and had a great time! Caleb even told Mitch that it was the best day ever. Well, that was yesterday and this morning when Caleb woke up he was very sore, not to mention the bad sunburn on his face! Mitch had forgotten to put sunscreen on his face and forgot his goggles on top of that. So now his eyes are red and he just feels bad. Poor cal. Hopefully the memory of yesterday will keep his love of snowboarding alive!

Sweet as sugar!

Happy Valentine's Day! Here are some pictures I took of the girls this morning. Boy was it hard to keep Brynley still! I may be bias but arent they just beautiful! I love the one were Aubrie is kissing Brynley and then bryn tried to kiss me! Cute.
PS- I had to bribe Brynley with candy as you can see it is hanging out her mouth in a few shots.

Beautiful Aubrie

Such a great picture of her!

Countdown...

39 days until we go to Hawaii! Yeah!

Aubrie's Accomplishment

Today was a first for Aubrie, she made her bed all by herself! And on top of that cleaned her room. All this without being told. Thank you Aubrie! You are awesome.

An update

I have been so bad about posting lately. SO here is a quick update. the kids are all doing well. Caleb was very proud to get his very first straight A report card. Third grade is when they start getting "real" grades. Last nine weeks he had all A's and one B, so he was very determined to get all A's. Good job Cal! Aubrie is doing well in dance and is driving me crazy having to stay cooped up in the house due to the cold weather. I cant wait for spring! She has become quite a good helper lately with chores and playing with Bryn. She is so sweet when she wants to be. Brynley is now walking here and there. She isnt consistent with it but when she feels the need to, she does. She has been little fussy lately, I think due to teething. But she says so much now. Her new thing is "hellooo" and "uhoh". Mitch is playing Basketball on a city men's team. He is having fun and enjoying the time to himself. I am trucking along in school. Chemistry is giving me a hard time but I am optimsitic that I will pass. I am still working out at the Spa and am really happy Mitch got me a membership for christmas. Its so convenient with the nursery there and I am working hard with my trainer. Hopefully I will be brave to post some new pics soon!

Snow Day

We have gotten so much snow this winter! Caleb has had several delayed school days and two snow days were he didnt even have school. He enjoyed it so much, He built himself a snowman. The other snowman is Aubrie and Mitch's. Mitch also took them sledding at Brookside and they had a blast. He forgot the camera so you'll hae ve to use your imagination on what they did.
