Walk

I took the bassinet off the stroller and converted it to a regular stroller.  Soleil fits well and took a nice long nap while I tried to get some exercise and fresh air by walking around the neighbourhood.





Booth sales

The Girl Scouts are selling cookies in full force, here is the sign Madeleine made for her troops booth sales

Gymnastics

Owen competed at his first meet of the year.  His first time doing Level 5 routines.  He didn't place but he had a great time and did his best!




Co-op

Spring co-op is well under way, only two weeks left!!  I am teaching a zoo class to the preschoolers.  We are reading books about different animals and doing crafts.  We recently did Australian animals.








As you can see Finn was really into it HA

Taekwondo testing

The kids moved up to Deputy level 2 in Taekwondo this last week.  They have to earn their Deputy level 3 and then after that they will wait until they are ready to test for black belt!

Here are some pictures from the sparring and graduation.

Daddy and Daughter Sweetheart Dance

This is an annual event for Jeremy and Madeleine, put on by one of the Northeast Texas Girl Scout Troops.  Madeleine loves to go to a dance with her friends, with dad as a tagalong :)

Madeleine ready for the dance, looking beautiful!

having so much fun!


I not only love this picture of Mads but thought the photo bomb of the dad's butt in the background was extra special as well!


This was the 'DJ', he had maybe 4 CD's and check out the toupee/combover, I didn't know you could have both but he pulls it off!!

Record snowfall in Texas Part 2


Finn spent a lot of time laying down in the snow, he was also making snow balls and throwing them at passing cars it was hard to tell him not to do that while we were laughing!!



Madeleine getting hit with a snowball!


She got Owen good here, he got her back!
