Catching UP...May 2, 2012

Wow...It has been awhile since we have posted on here....

A little quick post to catch everyone up to where we are today.

Cole and Ella are 4. They have almost completed their first year of 3 year old preschool.  They both have learned so many new things.  They love going to school everyday. They have been going to Webster Elementary in Urbandale.  Everyday is so much fun to hear about all the things that they did at school.  It has been a wonderful experience having them at school all day...they are going to be ready when they start kindergarten...but not for another year....that is going to be a tough day when it arrives.

Cole is into superheros now. He loves to pretend he is one and even play them with his buddies. Cole enjoys watching his superhero shows whenever he can sneak one of our phones or the IPAD.  He also has his favorite puppy that goes everywhere with us...his name is "woof woof".  Cole has a good heart and wants to make his mom and dad happy most of the time. He is enjoying playing tennis and recently starting Little Ninjas.

Ella is our lil' smarty. She is a steel trap and remembers everything anyone says to her. I think a couple years ago we said we would get a dog when she is 7, well she's going to hold us to that. Ella likes to play with anyone she can "take care" of or who is older than she is. She is one tough cookie...just tonight she took a spill on her bike and has a huge red mark on her collar bone and was hardly phased. The really enjoys playing with babies and taking care of her little sister.


We celebrated their 4th birthday in Disney World! They had a great time. This was a wonderful family vacation. We also went to my grandpa Bob's house in Engelwood, Florida. We got to go on the boat, play on the beach, swim in the ocean and spend some time hanging out in the warm Florida sun.




Madelyn will be 2 in less than 30 days. She is growing like a weed and does everything Cole and Ella do. She is beginning to talk in sentences and says the funniest things.  She has been at an in-home daycare this year and it has become her 2nd home....she LOVES going to see her "buddy" Broden everyday, Baby Grady and of course Chelsey! Madelyn is becoming more and more independent everyday. She loves to tell us "Mamaleyn do it".  She says her name so cute we ask her all the time to tell us her name. She is a ham and loves taking photos!!! She's growing way too fast!
