Catching Up

I worked all last week, so I am finally going to catch up on what has been happening at our house.

The boys went through their shirts a few weeks ago. There were a few that Camden had that Jackson wanted so he took them. Our 11 year old gave shirts to our 6 year old and they fit. Not sure if that means Cam is really small or Jacks is tall. Jackson loved the new shirts though.

 We watched our niece's daughter the other day. Emery and Jacks loved it (we did too). They both wanted to hold her and she is at the age where they just like to stand. I had a hold of her backs because neither of them held on to her that tight. She is a very happy baby and I think was a little amazed by the kids.

 Emery and Jacks also took turns reading to Hayden.

 We had FHE at Grandma and Grandpa Barnes house the other week and it was about being nice and how you can't take back mean things once they are said. Our niece did an object lesson with it that the kids loved. You had to get all of the toothpaste out of a tube then put it back it. They all tried hard but didn't' get it in.

 The other day all of the boys were at friends houses and Emery was home alone. I'm not sure she really did mind because she fell asleep on the chair pretty fast. I know Eevee loved it.

 We played Quelf the board game the other day. Since Brad and Jacks answered a question wrong they had to let Emery and me put makeup on them. Don't they look pretty.

 This is a note we found on the fridge. "love one another love everyone the same and never hate or tease 1 certain person love them the same" by Emery. Good words to live by.

 Emery was student of the week. I found out later that the kids are chosen by a class vote and she was the one chosen this week. She gets to have lunch with the principal some time after spring break too.
