Jake's preschool Graduation

Jake enjoyed preschool this year. He learned how to write his name and all the letters and sounds too. He knows his numbers and colors too. They had a little program at school and they sang songs. He really loves to sing. He was really cute because he couldn't sing with out swaying back and forth. He is very excited to be going to kindergarten at "Emily's school."

Emily dance review

Emily loves her dance class and her dance teacher. She did a great job at the review. We think she is by far number one in our eyes.

Jake lost two teeth

Two weeks ago Emily had a lose tooth and Dad was checking it, when Jake says, "Do I have any loose teeth?" He has been wanting to lose a tooth since Emily lost her first one in Feb. And I couldn't believe it when Devo said he had two really lose teeth.

So for a few days all he did was wiggle the teeth. Totally against my wishes. We finally let dad pull them out. He went around telling everyone "My Dad pulled it out with his finger." So instead of losing his first tooth he lost his first teeth. He was very happy when the Tooth Fairy left him $4. I can't believe it, he just turned 5 and he's already loosing his teeth. He's not going to look like my little boy any more. His top teeth are lose too! I'm trying to hold him off for a while by warning Devo to tell him they're not lose so he won't wiggle them out.

T-Ball

Jake's playing t-ball this year. I think he is so dang cute! The first game was a little rough, when he got ran over the first base runner, he wanted to go home. Now that he has the hang of things he really likes it.

He loves that Dad helps coach and he likes to play first base. He has a really good arm. If his fingers were stronger and he could open the glove he might even be able to catch the ball too. He has the best attention span of the whole team.

He is actually hitting the ball quite well. The last picture is blurry because he is lightning fast. Well not exactly with that huge oversized heavy helmet. All the kids run like snails trying to get to first base under the huge helmets.

Mother's Day

Mother's day was Awesome! On Saturday Emily and Dad sent me away to go grocery shopping and they made me a cut up cake. This is a tradition we do for Dad for father's day, but he gets to go golfing, she decided weeks in advance that she was going to do the same for me. She designed the whole thing and Dad helped her put it together. I came home to a big "Surprise!"

It was fun to watch her be so proud and excited. She is truly awesome and so creative. I sure love these guys.
