Flower craft

There were many things to do for Teacher Appreciation week at Layne's school this week. On Tuesday, she was to give her teacher a small gift, flowers, or card. Layne made handprint lilies we saw in Family Fun magazine. We placed them in a clear plastic cup filled with tissue paper and tied a simple ribbon around the cup. The teacher absolutely loved them. I thought they turned out really well.

Dancing to the ABCs

Visit to Dynamikum

Liam's Montessori class went on a field trip to a motion and movement museum. Liam and Brenne had a blast checking out how things moved and the science behind it all. We will definitely have to go back another time because I know that Layne and Mark would enjoy it as well.

Brenne-Still wins our vote

The photography casting call contest ended on May 1st and the winner was announced. Brenne did not win, and lost by 3 votes. I bought an adorable shot from the photographer and I get the one above in a 5X7. The experience was fun. Even though she didn't win the contest she is our winner.

She really has come into her own personality and just loves to smile and be interactive with those around her. Every morning we stay at Liam's preschool for about 10 minutes during song time and she will dance a little or sit in a classmate's lap. She is not shy and loves to be active.

Liam and Layne are her best friends and she loves to play hide and seek with them or play in their room. She is even starting to call for them in her own words. She just lights up around them.

Thanks to all for voting!!
