6, 9 months, and 8 1/2 (almost)

You might have noticed that Mom and Dad have been usually late getting our pictures with Peanut, Max and Ruby taken, so last night, we did Cameron's 6 year (over by a week and a half), Ainsley's 9 month (really almost 10 month) and Ben's 8 and 1/2 year old (in just under three weeks). If you do the math, it nearly balances itself out across all three of us.





PS: About Ainsley's bangs... well, let's just say Dad gave them a little trim and went a little over board. They'll grow back, right?

Ainsley, Ben and Cameron

Busted!

What can I say? Mommy totally busted me making a mess of the diapers.

My Neighbor Piper

My neighbor Piper came over to help build my play house (pictures coming soon) and then she even fed me dinner.


I love Piper.

I Love School: The Kindergarten Musical

The kindergartners presented a musical named "I Love School" to parents and other loved ones last night. Here are some photos of me and my sister, who was a goofball all night. It was a lot of fun and I was told I did a really nice job!

Easter!

The Easter bunny brought me a great little people set, which he hid in eggs all over the place. I'm not sad or angry in this picture, I'm super excited!


We got some beautiful flowers from Aunty Jen! Thanks, Aunty Jen!


After church, we took this picture of the three of us in our Easter outfits!

School Project Catch Up

Spring Break is a great time to go through the old school projects and share them with you.

Here is Ben's dinosaur extra credit poster from March.


Here is Cameron's bird head band from the Spring celebration.


Ben's class studied solids and liquids. He did a good job on his reports.


Here's a sample.


Cameron wrote a book about spring and all of the things we see in spring.


Cameron also made this robin.


Some oldies but goodies: the snow flake and the lady bug.

Spring Break 2010: The Stay-cation / Part 2b: MOA

Since we were down there anyhow, we stopped at Mall of America. Ben and Cameron wanted to go to the LEGO store, and Mommy wanted to get a new purse. We had lunch at a place called Crave, where Ben had his first sushi (it was okay, but two pieces were no where near enough for him).

Here's the only picture we took from this stop - Ben feeding Ainsley her "sushi" (ok, applesauce).


Love,
Ainsley, Ben and Cameron
