Cousins!!

My sister caught it again!!! These two love each other so much! We are so blessed to have girls so close to each other!! The girls spent their early release at Caroline's this afternoon. Caroline said some along the lines of do something or else they wont be able to play together tomorrow. Ansley put her hands on her hip and said that doesn't matter because she will still see Frances at school. Smarty pants!

The next writer!

Ansley loves to spell and to write stories! She wrote this during church last Sunday. Her caring personality comes out in her writing! She even spelled perseverance correctly!

A spring sneak peak!

It seems as if we live in Seattle these days. We get one warm sunny day and then it turns cold and rains a couple days! Not so sure I like this pattern. We spent the afternoon riding bikes and exploring the neighborhood playground! Love our neighborhood!!!!
Ready to go mom!

















This was the first time Henry got
To explore sand. He loves letting it sift through his fingers.











Ansley is enjoying her new found freedom. She was very impressed by the fact that she could ride over the speed bumps.


He really wants to be like the older kids!!





He was trying to rake the volleyball court!

She did it!!!

I have been waiting for this day to come. I always felt a bit conflicted. Scared but excited. Yes, today is the day my baby girl learned how to ride her bike without training wheels. She hasn't been that interested in learning how to do it.
We were outside playing on the driveway and she just said I want to do it today. So I put on my big girl face and prayed that I would have the patience!! After a few times on the driveway I put Henry in the stroller and we went to the street in front of our house. With the boys looking on Ansley and I went up and down the street. I think my neighbor took pitty on me because he suggested we go to the middle school track which is in walking distance from our house. Bob arrived home from the grocery so I was able to leave Henry with him! We headed to the track and one time around she said let go and never looked back!!!! So proud!! I will never forget the look that was on her face when she went around the track the first time by herself.
Hopefully the weather will continue to be nice tomorrow so she can ride more.












James ready to go home:)
