New Things For Spring

I love spring in Arizona. The weather is fantastic and spring break couldn't come at a better time. We have spent the last two weeks enjoying our little family and learning new things. This is a picture of Lukey down by our "grassy area" as the boys call it. I heard him saying "Leonardo, Donatello are you there?" He is getting so big and just keeps getting cuter!

Jeffey's new adventure is hockey. He loves it. He is doing a free camp with the Coyotes and has improved so much over the last three weeks.

Here he is sitting on his bucket that he used to push around the first week. Now he can skate by himself, get up when he falls and shoot the puck into the net. He loved when Grandma and Papa came to watch and is having fun being the first one to try a new sport to our family.

He loves how big he looks in all his gear.

I love that I can barely see him when he has his helmet on. I think its adorable. Im glad one of the boys appreciates their Canadian roots!

Ben's new adventure is learning to ride his bike. Daddy ran a couple miles the last two weeks beside him, but now he can do it himself.

Thanks to cousin Noah for loaning us the handle till he got the hang of it.

Ben got to be Star of the Week at school the last week before spring break and loved telling everyone about his 24 cousins and fun things he does with his family. He brought Luke and Henry as his special people to interview in class.

Lukey finished his preschool program with the city this month. At the little ceremony he was adorable as he led me around. He found us a spot to sit on the steps and eat our treats (which was his favorite thing!). He said in his cute little way "here's a good spot mommy". I can't get enough of him right now. I love this little age. He is my little buddy and is always ready to give me a hug and kiss. He is such a big boy in his tiny body!

With Ms. Alex. She said he was always good in class and participated. He did a great job singing at the presentation and is learning to write quite a few letters. He is a great little artist and loves to color and draw. He is a joy in our family, and keeps up laughing all the time.

Henry is also learning all sorts of new tricks. At five months he weighs what Jeff did at a year, wears the same size diaper Lukey wore when he potty-trained at two and is a great sleeper. He is rolling all over the place and babbling and smiling. The boys love him and he is constantly smothered with attention.

What a fun little family.
