Happenings at our house

Here are a few tid bits of happenings at our house:

Tyler has two teeth now. He can do "Hola" by lifting his arm and opening and shutting his hand. He can also clap. He is finally enjoying big people food. But only that which he can manipulate himself. He ate a half a banana yesterday and especially likes crackers and cereal.

Timothy has started soccer school this week. He is loving it! He is in the 4 - 7 year old bracket. He is the fastest of his class he tells me. This is a huge outdoor school beside the stadium. There are hundreds of kids that go to this school. So far his team has won all four games that they have played amongst themselves. He is usually placed as goalie. Whenever we get into the taxi to take him to school (Tuesday - Friday, 3:30 - 5:00) the driver always grins with a look of pride and nostalgia. I don't even have to tell them where to go, they know the school from their childhood.

Raimy is doing great with art class. One of her friends signed up and is going with her. This is fun for her. Today Raimy went with a member of the church that is making a children's music CD. They needed a little girl to sing a song. So this will be cool that Raimy's voice will be on an album.

Gabrielle continued to show great desire with learning. She is a very hard worker. I can hardly believe that she is almost 6 years old. Now with the other two installed in their activities she is wanting to start hers. She says she wants to swim. We are looking at the options - but it looks like that will be what she does.

DaRonn has started a bowling group with some people from church. He really likes it. I am glad that there is a bowling ally in town. (There is only one in this town of 800,000.)

I have been very happy this week that Tyler is sleeping through the night. Well, he wakes up around 3 and fusses a little - but I let him go back to sleep and he is out until the morning. We are talking 8 - 11 hours here folks! It is nice. :-)

So that is what is happening. Oh - if you want to read a fun memory that I posted you can click here. I love you all!
