Alex:
Alex is, well, Alex. He's doing well with the learning part of school. He's learning to sound out words and can string together a lot of sounds and read small words. It's very impressive to me! He's a smart little dude. Right now he loves to play with Legos and Bionicle dudes. He loves to watch Spongebob Squarepants and run around and be active. He's quite the good little tumbler and often makes landing pads out of couch cushions and jumps and twirls and flips all over the living room. One of these days I know he's going to break a bone!! We are also having a bit of a struggle with Alex and his behavior. We have taken him to see a psychologist and we hope that some new techniques will help. We may also explore the possibility of him having ADHD and needing medication. We'll see!
Samantha:
Princess Samantha is the star of her class in school! Her teacher just raves about Samantha and how wonderful she is! Samantha is starting to read 2nd grade books and is doing well in every subject! Except sentence construction! That is the one area she struggles with. She's a smart cookie though - she'll get there. Samantha takes a little after-school dance class where she can spaz out with other little girls her age. I really thought something was wrong with her and her dancing abilities until I saw them all dance together.........It is cute though! Samantha is her normal, adorable self most of the time that talks WAY too much and WAY too loud. But with a face like hers, she can get away with it.
Kristi:
I'm writing this post. I have no update. I take care of kids, clean, do laundry, occasionally bake cookies for profit, and teach Young Women in church. I will probably also sign up for an Accounting class at BYU soon. Shoot me!
Andy:
Andy travels. A lot. He is in London right now, then on to Geneva, then Brussels. When he is home he cooks yummy food, plays Legos with Alex (or me!), and reads with Samantha.
Wow, that post was wicked boring! ENJOY!
