Evie's ready for Kinder!

Look how grown up Evelyn looks!  This was on her assessment at MCA for Kindergarten.  As we all knew, she is good to go and very ready and excited to being school next year!  I'll miss having her around with the little 2, she has become quite the helper to me. 

Dad--she's reading Calvin and Hobbes already, waiting to leave for church.  :)

the new and improved green room!  Helena's new bed and Clara's in the big girl toddler bed.. only so that she doesn't hurt herself climbing out her crib!  So it's 2 in each room. 

Clara the little mermaid patient. 

April birthdays

Can't believe Clara Irene is 2!!!  We had fun celebrating her--the big girls are really getting into birthdays now so its exciting for them as well. 

Cinnamon rolls for birthday breakfast!

her favorite thing, balls!! 

piñata fun--

Yay!!  Evie decorated Clara's cake this year.  :)

Savannah did get birthday treats-- but she doesn't really like cake much, so instead we did ice cream sundaes!  Kids loved it!  Grandad and Nana were there to enjoy with us!

Our big 7 year old!  She has done so very well in 1st grade and all she wanted for her birthday was "books and more books and a reading lamp so I can read in my bed"  Yay!  We've done something right perhaps. :)  This mermaid tail however was a HUGE hit as well and she will wear it around for hours.
