Tonight

Before I lay Kristen in her bed I pray with her. Tonight I closed the door and as I was about to walk away I heard her start praying again..boy it made me proud.

Earth worms...

Two weeks ago, Kristen and I were working in the front yard. We were pulling weeds and moving dirt around. All of a sudden I came across an earth worm and as I pulled it out of the dirt and I showed it to Kristen. At first she just stared at it, and I explained to her what it was. Then the worm started moving and she did a deep excited sound that goes something like this, "hunh, hunh, hunh, hunhhhh". She was so excited and couldn't believe that the worm was moving. After looking at the worm for a few minutes I explained to her that worms live in the dirt so we would have to throw him back in the flower bed. So we did..and she went over to where she thought the worm landed and said, "Where'd go?". About an hour later I found another worm. Kristen was filling her buckets with dirt when, "plop", I dropped a worm in her bucket. She couldn't believe there was another worm. She played with the worm for a little bit and then told me, "back, back", which means "We need to throw him back". So we did just that. I love that my girl is into earth worms...

Kristen's words

The other day Kristen bonked Austin on his head with her head and said, "Sorry Austi, head ow". It was so great to see almost a total 5 word sentence!

Austin's cool moves..

On April 17, 2007 Austin rolled over!! He also can get his pacie to his mouth with no help..hallelujah! (4 months) He is very interested in toys and loves to reach out and grab them when you hold them above him. We love him here in the A-Team house!

Gymnastics

Kristen started gymnastics last Thursday, March 29, and had a blast. She jumped on the spring floor the entire time of her class. She loves to jump, and amazingly she can get both feet off the ground.

Dancing Feet

Sunday, April 1st, we went to a wedding for our good friend Lisa. This was the first wedding that Kristen could really enjoy..and boy did she. Once the dancing started it was all over. Kristen sat with Marmee and watched all the people dancing for about an hour. She swayed back and forth and finally Marmee asked her (for about the fourth time) if she wanted to go out and dance. She was ready and her feet hit the dance floor. It was all over from there. She danced with Marmee and me for at least an hour. Her feet didn't stop moving. She had the best time out there...she's got beat for sure. I wish everyone could have seen her shakin' her tush..it was so fun to watch.

Rollie Pollie

I love when Austin is on his back and curls up by grabbing his feet...he loves his feet..but the best part of it is he looks like a rollie pollie. He is so adorable.
