March Update

Spring is here and I am so happy that we can go outside and play! Our local park hosts "The Ultimate Play Date" on Wednesday evenings and movie nights on Fridays. I can't wait until these events begin as they make the week much more fun for all of us. Ellie Grace is taking swim lessons at the YMCA and learning how to swim under water. She needs to swim a bit farther and start trying to take breaths, but she is doing great. She loves soccer and will join her neighborhood friend at an art class in April. She was the winner of a huge art basket through a raffle at our preschool dinner last week. She also won a tea set,but they almost gave it away because she was too busy eating her cupcake to go up and claim it! Minnie Mouse was walking around during the game/craft time so she got us to take a picture. However, she later noted to Erik that it wasn't the real one because she saw legs. Niklas started a new preschool and he loves to go to his "new school" everyday. We are in the process of learning the cause of his developmental and physical delays. He loves Elmo so a co-worker sent their life-size one home with Erik. Ellis Grace and Niklas both like playing with their new sand/water table and the larger kitchen (my first big consignment sale purchase).
