Alexis loves to help unload the dishwasher. She does a great job stacking the plastic cups!!! She is so proud of herself.
Summer is just around the corner. Swim practice has begun again. RJ is old enough for swim team this year. He is so excited. After all this time driving his sister's to their practices it is finally his turn. As he was jumping out of the car to run into practice the other day he turned and said, "I LOVE SWIMMING". I am glad he is enjoying himself.
RJ getting a little help on his kick from Coach Vladi.
Brittnie trying to get a little homework done while RJ swims. Then she swims. Then we run home to finish up homework before we have to go take Kassy to her swim practice. Poor Lexi. I think she is getting sick of her car seat. Thank goodness for DVD's in the car. I don't know what I would do without it these days. Alexis spends an average of one and a half hours in the car every afternoon running her siblings somewhere. I figure she deserves a movie.
Brittnie waiting for the next set of instructions.
Kassy had to dress in costume and went to Riley's farm in Oak Glen for her 5th grade field trip. There they re-enacted the Revolutionary War. They ground flour, observed a period blacksmith at a waterwheel driven hammer mill and were taught the manual of arms by Revolutionary War soldiers. They were given beef jerky, cheese and bread for lunch. She had a really good time.
Donut Anyone?
We brought the kitchen home from Grandma's house. Lexi got some play food and a new tea set for her birthday. That is where you will find her every morning. Out making tea, eating a donut and doing the dishes. She was so excited to have her own "freezer" and "microwave". I love this age where their little imaginations are coming to life.
We had Good Friday off of school. Kassy and Brittnie have friends from swimming who are sisters. Kassy went and spent the night at there house and Hannah came over to spend the night at our's. We went for a bike ride up to Mile Square Park. It was a beautiful day.
They had to climb and jump off every rock around the little lake.

Looks like you are in for a busy and fun summer!
Cute pictures. That Lexi is one cute girl! I love the "donut" picture! What a great mom you are, willing to drive your kids around and have them involved in so much. Not all mom's are willing to do that so hat's off to you too! Your kids are so cute and will be great well rounded people! Have fun at the pool!
What a great family! I feel like i haven't seen you in forever! i hope to be able to watch one of RJ and the girls meets while i am on my maternity leave. Lexi is getting so big. She looks so much older.
Cute pictures Julie! The kids look like they get bigger every time you post something! Can't you all sneek away for a bit and come up to Iceburg?

Julie, your kids are growing so fast I barely recognize them. We miss you.
