Homework

Caleb got his first "homework" assignment on Monday. At his school, they have started learning the alphabet and this week is the letter "A". Monday he painted with apples, but his homework was to cut out pictures and paste them on a sheet of paper with the letter A on it. He did so good. While McKenna was taking her morning nap, we looked on the computer for pictures, I let him type the words in the search bar and then pick out his favorite picture. He LOVED it! Then he cut all the pictures out by himself! I asked him if he wanted to stop and come back to it later and he said no, he wanted to keep doing it. It kept us busy for awhile. I hope every Tuesday is this much fun!! I posted a picture of his first "homework assignement".

Laser Show

This past Saturday we went with the Moore's to the laser show at Stone Mountain. We went to Jolie (4) & Jackson's (1) birthday party at Mardi Gras in Lawrenceville, then headed to the park. We had a picnic dinner on the lawn and then watched the show. Caleb and McKenna both liked it! McKenna watched most of it, but passed out towards the end.

Dine by Design

On Thursday, September 10th, our church First Baptist Church of Conyers put on an event called Dine by Design. There were 50 tables & hostesses. Each hostess decorated her table to her hearts content. You had to provide tableware, decor, gifts, etc. for each person. There were 500 ladies that attended the event. After a wonderful time of viewing each table, we ate dinner and then headed to the sanctuary to hear Lilies Out Loud. A duo of women comedian and singer. They were awesome. Can't wait til next year. My table theme was "The Many Expressions of Hallmark". Take a look at the photos!

My little talker

My Daughter

So, I'm a bad blogger! It's been 4 months since my last post and our new daughter is 2 1/2 months old!! Terrible.....well, McKenna Clare was born on Sunday, March 8 at 5:30 pm weighing 8 lbs. 8 oz. and 21 inches long. She was 10 days early. Imagine how big she would have been if she had of gone til her due date! She hasn't stopped growing either. At her 2 month check up she weighed a whopping 14 lbs. 11 oz. She is already wearing 6 month clothes! We love her to death. She is cooing and gurgling and smiling like crazy :) Caleb is being an awesome big brother. He helps change her and we can't ever "forget" her if we are going somewhere. I promise I will be a better blogger so I can keep everyone updated :)
