Deck is done!

Pajama Day at School!

Max IV has always had a good vocabulary - just in the wrong places. For example, how would you use the word "technique"?-Well, this is how Max used it: There was a little boy at school who was unintentionally making fun of Emmett. The boy said Emmett was annoying him and he kept telling Emmett to stop and Emmett was ignoring him. Stop what?-the teacher asked. Stop moving his head -the boy said that Emmett wouldn't stop moving his head and it was annoying him. Obviously, that was very sad and very heartbreaking to hear. Emmett does it and has always done it. The good thing is now that we did his genetic testing, we know it truly is just the way God made him. So Emmett was able to tell that to the boy "that's the way God made me & I can't help it" -which is the truth. So we were talking about the story at dinner time and what happened and Max IV said to Emmett: That's right! That's
the way God made us! We all have different techniques and that is your technique. Sweet brothers:) Although I don't know if I would have used the word "technique". But that is Max's technique - using excellent vocabulary in all the wrong places. So I continued the conversation by saying yes you all have your own techniques. Max, you bite your nails. Atticus, you whisper your sentences after you say them it out loud to which he looked at me and said no I don't and then whispered no I don't yes they all have their own techniques

Just a few more boards!

Happy Easter!

We were so busy working on the deck, that we barely got eggs and candy for our hunt.  On Easter evening, stores definitely run out of eggs and candy and they close early.  I found this out, and was able to find some after racing to far too many stores. I was in complete panic.

It was a good day in the soccer fields!

It's a cold soccer practice in Colorado!

Helping with the deck is hard work!

Hey Max-guess what we're doing this weekend-putting in a new deck!

🎶This is my buddy. Wherever I go, she goes. 🎶. That's a throwback to the "my buddy" doll from the 80's. But-anyway-it's true. She does not leave my side for a moment. All day. If I'm out of her sight for 5 seconds, she starts hollering for me. She spent her money yesterday on some minion jamas. Like a true girl-the boys bought toys & she bought clothes. She's all dressed to help us with the deck-which I surprised Max with when he came home

Atticus lost a tooth!

Atticus played goalie today & he did great! This is him in action.

Emmett is doing some Karate

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Greer spent her own money to buy these skates:)

Thankful for the hailstorm that "fixed" our house:)

Hey Mustache!
