Boys in Spring

Just a quick catch-up on normal life here: Home schooling! We finished first grade with a bang! Tate is actually probably a good way into second grade, but I decided to just double-check what we had left, and we were already done! Yippie! Here is Tate enjoying some SECOND grade history outside. And I do mean enjoying. This kid is a sponge for information.


Sam has taken to eating his spagetthi the way Chris and I both do: with two hands, a spoon and fork and lots of slurping. We thought this was normal, but we've gotten comments that not everyone else in the world shovels it in this way bent over the table. Oh well, we like it. Yes, we still eat this meal at least once a week.


Sam is big enough now to explore and hunt on his own outside, which he does everyday. And this is his self-declared "uniform" for his "job," as he calls it: firefighter coat and boots, with Tate's old blue backpack and a blue scarf grandma Carol made Tate years ago. He pushes his dump truck and collects thing, usually at least one small animal. He insists on eating most of his meals outside as well. Sometimes we join him, sometimes we just wave from the dining room.

And yes, more bathroom pictures, since this is where all the action around here really is: Who can sword fight the best with pee? They were really on their way to the shower, they don't just run around like that (very often)!
