Welcoming 2011

Wow, it's already into February!! Just a little update with some new pictures of the kids. Emma is still just loving school. Ken is still loving that he gets all the attention while she's gone to school:) I went to my first ever parent-teacher conference in December; Emma's teacher loves her and thinks that she's very smart. She's starting to read pretty good now and likes to read Ken a bedtime story at night. Ken is quite a little talker now and still very active. He's pretty much non-stop from wake up to bedtime. These first pictures are the kids playing with finger paints. They learned what the primary colors were and used them to make other colors.
They enjoyed getting their hands all dirty.
Look mom, I made purple.
He did such a good job of keeping his hands on the paper and not touching everything else.
Having fun with green.
He liked the way the paint felt on his hands.
Orange hand prints.
Painting with his finger.
Fun with black and white and a touch of color.
My big boy.

The kids having a fun day at the Children's activity museum in Ellensburg.

Cowboy buck and Elizabeth came to Emma's school for an assembly. The kids got to dress up in their western attire and learn about the cowboy code.

Emma attended the mini cheer clinic at her school. The highschool cheerleaders taught the little girls some cheers, then that evening at the varsity girls basketball game, the mini cheerleaders got to go out and cheer with the big cheerleaders. Emma LOVED it!! She had such a great time.

My little Ken, very proud of his brand new Thomas the Train pj's.
Sweet, funny little guy.

The kids put on a little fashion show for me one night before I had to go to work. They are just the best kids ever; I am really enjoying them so much.
