What a week! The girls had so much going on, but it was a lot of FUN. We started off with Fun Day Races on Monday. It was the first warm day we had in about a week. Good thing there were some water games to keep them cooled down!

Tuesday Hanna's class took their field trip to the Rolling Hills Zoo, and mom got to go along to help out. It was a lot of fun. Hanna really enjoyed the BIG LONG Snakes and the peek hole she got to climb in to see the black bear up close!

Then Wednesday both the girls celebrated their last day of school playing in the park! Haleigh did some hot wheel races her dad helped out with, she made a bracelet with her Aunt Lori and then made some letters in play-doh with mom.

Hanna got her face painted, played with water balloons and make a bracelet as well.

Thursday both the girls got their hair cut. They are now ready for the summer! Kade is need of a hair cut as well. He goes on Tuesday to get his hair cut. We will be going really short with it, since we have to get it cut every 6 weeks. I have never seen a little boy with so much hair!!

This weekend we have spent at home trying to get things ready before the little one arrives. Who can believe that there is only a couple weeks left! The girls have stayed busy jumping on the trampoline and playing dress up. Kade provided the music for them to dance.

This is the flamingo dress that Nana brought back from Spain.

Well this week should be quieter!

In June, Hanna will start her T-Ball games and dance class and Haleigh will begin her Gymnastics! So check back later to see how things go!

More Activities!

It has been another busy week.

Kade has been having troubles with his ears again! I think that we are on the mend now though. I hope that we can get through more than a couple weeks before we are back fighting those ears!!!

Haleigh had her Pre School Program on Friday. She was part of the Itsy Bitsy Spider song! She really did a great job. She spent all week practicing the songs.

Hanna has been busy finishing up things at school. She brought home an art project she had been working on, as a Mother's Day gift. It is a cute little clay turtle paper holder. I suggested taking it to work for business cards. But she thought that there were enough papers around the house that I have troubles loosing ...guess she is right and I will be using it at home.

The baby....we are in a count down mode. The girls and I went shopping this weekend to get some thing we needed. We have spent the weekend washing up clothes and blankets and trying to organize things. So we are trying to get ready.

We have a lot more things coming up, like Fun Day Races, Hanna's field trip and then park day!

So make sure to check back and see how things went.

Our Loss!

MORGAN VAL PEARSON

This week we experienced a major loss to our family! Morgan, our house cat, passed away unexpectedly! Spencer and I adopted him our first year in Manhattan. He has been with us through so many things; he was a very important part of our family and we will really miss him.

Another Busy Week!

As the school year winds down the activities start to increase! We had another busy week!

Hanna completed her first Written and Illustrated book this year. So we celebrated at the authors party. She really had a lot of fun and is already looking forward to doing it all again next year. Today Hanna had her final dance performance of the year. She had a lot of fun out there! She about did not make it out there in her outfit! We realized on Monday that we were not sure where it was located! We spent a couple days and several hours looking all over the place. We finally located it under the recliner! It had gotten knocked off of the hanger moved about 8 inches, under the recliner. We were sure worried! But it all worked out in the end.

Haleigh has been practicing for her Preschool Program. She is learning all kinds of new songs! On May 10th, we will actually get to see her on stage! She is also getting ready for her fun day races. After watching her sister do it for the last couple years, she can't wait to take part in the activities herself.

Kade is two! He is showing us his stubborn side a lot more lately! This last week Kade hasn't been feeling well, so that hasn't helped his attitude issues!

Hanna Puts on a Show!

Hanna had her 1st grade program this week. She put on a great show! Here she is singing and dancing. We were all surprised that Haleigh knew the songs too! I guess Hanna has been making her practice!

Egg Hunt

We started our Easter Weekend out in Pratt on Thursday night. When we got there Nana wasn't feeling very well and only got worse. So Friday morning we packed up and headed back home. We sure did not want to get what Nana had!!

Hunting Eggs

Well, we made it to the Easter Egg Hunt in the park today. Good things we took an extra set of hands with us! The kids were all in different age groups, so I could not have done it myself. Thanks Linda!

The kids had a lot of fun! I think they got enough candy, we won't have to worry about getting any from the Easter Bunny!

Here is Kade and Hanna with the bunny. Haleigh did not feel like another photo! Maybe next years we can get all four kiddos in one picture.

Our Monkey turns 2!

We took Kade's love for monkeys and turned it into a great birthday theme. The kids had alot of fun at the party. The girls were the offical present openers, I don't think they will be able to get away with that next year!
