Our Sad Loss

At approximately 5:30 yesterday evening a fatal accident occurred in our house on the corner.  The nearly 20 year old piano served faithfully until it met its untimely death at the hands of a 5 year old.  Sources say that the piano bench was  knocked over severing the pianos three foot pedals damaging the piano both physically and electrically. The boy is being charged as a minor and was released on his own recognizance after pleading guilty to involuntary man slaughter and is being placed on probation.
Funeral services are being arranged.  The family asks that in lieu of flowers donations be made to the "Baby Grand for Jordan" fund.

A "Spring" Field Trip

This morning when the kids woke up I told them to put on short sleeves because we had a surprise field trip. We met Gramma B and Gramma Great at the Botanical Center and got to pretend it was spring!   By the orchids   Lovely Lady (She has been waiting for short sleeve weather so that she can wear this sweater!)     Grandmas and the kids   Look at the fish!   Me and my babes!     What is this?      This inside of the fig   He looks as disturbed as I was to find out that they throw out the plants in the two themed beds every 6 weeks!  (We kind of wanted to take them home!)   Not sure if this is the wall's intended purpose!     What a great brother!   Group shot!

A Very Late Posting of 1st Day of Enrichment Class!

 Yep, enrichment classes started over a month ago and I am just now posting the "First Day of Class" photos.  This year we cut back to just one day.  It is lovely.  Jonah and Audrey are both taking art and science.  Jonah is also taking drama.  I am really curious to see how he does with that because he has been really excited about it.  The back packs are completely unnecessary, but a must for the back to class picture!     Getting Ready to head out!   Miss Poser as she gets ready to go inside!    Way too cool for this   Me too Mom!  

A little Reuben update

I took Reuben in for his 4 year today.  Last year...36 lbs 36 inches.  This year 39 lbs 39 inches.  73% for weight and 22% for height.    The nurse said "Buddy, you are a square!"  We knew that already. He got referred to an allergy Dr.  On the one hand he is too young to start allergy meds (unless he starts not being able to sleep-then he'd be looking at shots.) but knowing what he is allergic to could help us make better decisions for him (watch pollen counts, tell Jonah there is no dog in his future, etc.)  Looks like it is time to start figuring our how to get him to take apple cider vinegar!  (Sigh...)
