It is so nice that Korben actually has all of his homework done before 4pm. Since its so nice out today (75 degrees and partly sunny) we headed out to the back deck and sat on the porch swing to do homework. He read his AR book, worked on some Matt problems (coins/change stuff) and wrote out 10 spelling sentances. He seemed to really enjoy the nice weather and said he will have to do this tomorrow.
Speaking of tomorrow Korben has his Blue and Gold Banquet for Scouts. He will recieve his Wolf Badge and 2 silver arrow points, map/compass pin and 2 beads for completing stuf fin his handbook. There will be a Hawiian theme so the boys in the den and I made Leis and little Tikis out of paperrolls. They will be having a catered dinner and entertainment. I will bring my camera with me and hopefully catch some stuff in action. Its going to be hard though with me dealing with Julianna. I should have asked one of my friends to watch her.
Julianna's favorite things to do now is to wear pants that have pockets, she digs her little hands in there and walks around like her daddy, dig into my purse and find all of my lip balm/glosses and put every single one on, I have about 3. Dig all of my coins out and drop them on the table, making clinking sounds. She also LOVES lotion and will sneak into my bedroom and apply some to her hands. She does pretty well with it because she never puts too much on. haha I will have to upload her ABC video on YouTube sometime. She has a Curious George ABC book and points to every letter and says them. Its quite crazy since Korben only knew the letters in his name when he was 5.

I swear Julianna was one sensitive sniffer on her. She smells something that doesn't agree with her and she will go full blown with the gag reflex. Twice it has led to me cleaning up the floor. I haven't known a kid that gets so weak in the stomach like that. I just hope she grows out of it.
Saturday morning we had snow again when we woke up. It was coming down so hard, big flakes and all. It last about 2 hours and we got about an inch. Took the kids outside to play in it before Matt came home with breakfast. They got to build (me really) a snowman. Forgot to take pictures of it but I did get the crazy snow falling. I have to upload those pictures and share them along with our other snow fall we had back in January?!? I can't even remember when we had that.
Julianna has a fever today plus a runny nose. Its clear so there is no infections but she is SUPER whiney and just not feeling good. She took TWO long naps today which is really rare for her.
Amber, I have clothes for Chloe for you. I am going through Julianna's clothes today and I have next Fall/Winter clothing. I am going to go through a summer bag and see if I can find any 9-12 months summer clothing. Some are good for outside/daycare extra clothing. So expect a bag in June when we come up or meet in VA for Aaron's wedding.

The above is from Korben's Pinewood Derby on Sunday. He got 3rd place in his den. But there were only 2 other boys he raced. He was a bit disappointed but I told him we will have to try hard next year and work on it a week or two before the race.

Later on in the week or today I will have an album posted from our little winter snow storm from last week. The kids had fun but it was too cold for Julianna to go out in it. There is still a bit left on the ground. When we go out to the car she likes to step in the snow and hear it crunch.
