Mrs. Schmidt, Charlie, Mia, Morgan, Dane, Addison, Drew, Mrs. Connie

Ella, Jack, Owen, Collin, Bryce and Luke

We are so proud of Addison, Bryce and Collin! Their first year of "school" is coming to an end and we are so happy that they have been part of this wonderful class. They have made a lot of friends, expanded their vocabulary and imaginations and just look how they have grown! 

These pictures were taken earlier in the year by their teachers.

To me they still look like "babies" in these pictures.

Potty Training

I'm happy to say that potty training is going well for our crew and the days of buying diapers will soon come to an end! Addison is fully potty trained. Bryce is doing well and wearing underwear during the day. Up until about a week ago Collin said "he didn't want to tee-tee in the potty, Addison and Bryce tee-tee in the potty" but all of a sudden he decided he wanted to use the potty and has been doing great. He doesn't even tell us sometimes he just goes. Last night I saw him run to the bathroom, I didn't follow him or say anything I just let him go. Several minutes later I realized I never saw him come out of the bathroom and it was really quiet in there so I went to check it out and this is what I found..........

an entire roll of toilet paper in the toilet!

Luckily Steven was home to help unclog the mess. We are so proud of them and are excited that our diaper buying days may be coming to an end but at this rate I'll be buying a lot more toilet paper!

Easter

I'm way behind on posting so I'll make this short and sweet. We had a great time celebrating Easter with family and friends. After 6 egg hunts we have more candy than we could eat in a year and three kids that are masters at egg hunting!

Egg Hunt #1

With a neighborhood of 2 year olds we had to have a neighborhood egg hunt!

Egg Hunt #2
It was fun watching a class of 2 year olds hunt for eggs!

Addison and Collin had to open each egg to see what was in it.

Egg Hunt #3

At our church egg hunt the kids played games and had a lot of fun!

Frisky Frog Easter Party

Catherine and I were "party moms" for the class Easter party. We prepared goldfish carrots, butterfly grapes, cookies and bunny cups for juice.  This was the first class party that I attended so I had fun seeing the kids interact with friends and listen to their teachers.  

We also made these for their friends to take home

The class enjoyed their snacks
