Gummy Bears

I don't understand it at all. But Jax has this fascination with Gummy Bears. A few weeks ago we bought some and he enjoyed eating them ... of course. But now it has become one of his favorite phrases. You can ask him a question, and often times the answer is 'Gummy Bears'.

Yesterday we were outside kicking the soccer ball around on our porch. Then he stopped, looked through the railing and started shouting, "Gummy Bears!!! Come back!!!" I couldn't help but laugh. Then I asked him what they were doing, "Running away." he says. I asked him what color they were, "Geen", he reply's.

So, for the next several minuets we ran back and forth asking the Gummy Bears to please come back. It was so fun & funny!!!

Blessings!

Proud Parents

Tonight was Open House at the girls' high school. I was looking forward to going for a few reasons. One, I like to go to these kinds of things. Two, being a new school for us, I wanted to check out the campus and the teachers. Three, it's a good opportunity to 'hear' from the teachers.

All I have to say is, I am so proud of our girls! I know this hasn't been the easiest transition for them, and they are having to make all new friends. But, it sounds like they are doing an amazing job. Every teacher we talked to enjoys having them in their class and says that they bring a lot to the classroom. They are passing every single one of their classes. And in some of them they are going above and beyond and are at the top of the class!

Sorry to be going on about them, but like I said, I am so proud of them.
Thanks for listening to me brag! ;o)

Blessings!

Pretend

This afternoon Jax was pretending with his zebra stuffed animal.

He put it on his Mater car to give him a ride. The zebra fell off and he repeatedly said, "So sorry!". It was so sweet!

Then he wanted Zebra to join him for lunch. So, we put him up on the table on a place mat, and Jax shared his cutie with the Zebra. He would also talk to him a little bit, basically one word conversations, but it was so cute!!!!

Blessings!!!
