Avery
Avery played spring soccer through the YMCA this year. He was a little more focused this season, but still managed to breakdance "the worm" on the sidelines waiting his turn. We also had to remind him not to lay down on the field in the middle of a game. Overall, he did have fun playing and socializing with the other kids.
Our sweet boy made a large Mother's Day card for me at school. Inside the card, students were supposed to write adjectives that described their mom. He managed to write "BOOM", "POW" and "FABALOOS".
Aileen
"patterpitter" = caterpillar
Likes to dress up in her princess dress to go grocery shopping with her mom.
"green bean paint soup" = green bean soup
"I want to wear a dress so I can be a mom princess."
Prances around on her tip toes.
Avery asked, "What do you want to be when you grow up Aileen?". Aileen answered, "I want to be a princess mom."
She gets two M & M's for a potty treat and shares one with her brother, especially if it is the color red.
Aileen sometimes brings her beloved blankie (gee gee) to Avery if she senses he is upset.
When Aileen noticed that she had two bruises on her knees, she told us that she has "blues clues" (which sounds like the word "bruises").
"seepin' booty" = Sleeping Beauty (her now favorite movie)
At her daddy's speech and debate banquet, they announced next year's fall play (Treasure Island) by having the high school principle dress up in a pirate's costume. Aileen, fearing for her safety, vocally disapproved, and announced "That pirate should NOT be in the high school!"
