Claire has started nursery at church. She doesn't love it if I'm not there but I am hoping to sneak out a little more and have her be ok with it. Dave and I both have a lot to do with our callings on Sunday so it's hard to stay with her. We talked to the nursery leaders and they say they are ok with her crying. It's hard when I am just right outside the door with my primary calling and can hear her screaming.
Claire loves playdough. She will carry the carry-case around with her all day like her purse. I am glad she can't open it by herself yet or we would have playdough all over the house. She also loves climbing up on tables. I don't know what is so fun about that. Dave came home the other day and she was standing on the edge of the dining room table. It was kinda scary.
Ben and Siena sleeping. I went to go say goodnight when I was going to bed and found this. They were in Siena's room together on the floor and Ben had his foot up in Siena's face. They were both sound asleep. Funny kids. Sometimes I wonder why they don't just share a room.
I have been trying to be out and enjoy the nice weather with Ben when he is home. We have gone to the zoo and many many parks. He refuses to take naps anymore in his room but has fallen asleep in the kiss n ride line at school a lot.
Claire and I enjoyed Nalls produce stand one day while the kids were at school.
I take Siena to school then drop Ben off at school then come home. Sometimes it is a busy morning... especially for Claire. I was doing the morning dishes when I found her like this. Poor girl she was so tired and I guess I wasn't paying enough attention to her. She has this awful habit that I can't seem to break of not eating a big dinner and so she is starving when she wakes up. She would sleep longer if she would eat more dinner.
here she is having an apple core for dinner!
Siena is fabulous. I don't have many pictures of her as she is gone all day! She loves school. She started a gymnastics class that she loves. Her friend from school is in it too. She tells me everyday that she played gymnastics at school and kept asking me when she could start on a team. I love the place that she goes to and she is having a lot of fun with it.
Siena starts piano lessons this Wed. She is excited and seems ready to give it a try. We will see how the practicing goes.
I am volunteering in her class on Monday mornings. It is so much fun. I get to read with all the kids. It is amazing at all the different reading levels in each class. It is fun to meet all her other classmates too. I get a little glimpse of what 1st grade is like.
