I can not believe it has been so long since I last posted. It has been just crazy around here cleaning up from Christmas and settling in to our new home.
The kids celebrated their first New Years night this year. They were determined to stay up till midnight so after dinner we watched movies, had our annual New Years apple cider cupcakes, and watched the ball drop. The kids made it till midnight although Andon was almost asleep when the ball dropped. Spending New Years together as a family was the perfect start to this year!
Santa left the kids stainless steel straws in their stockings this year and we have been using them almost every day with our afternoon smoothies.
We have spent a lot of time at home lately because there is so much to do around here. The kids have been great finding new things to do here. They have spent a lot of time exploring our large backyard and playing with the toys that were in storage for 4 months. Currently though the back yard is a mess do to the fact that we are in the middle of building a pool. Their new favorite pass time is building forts lots of fun for all involved.
When we moved to California my parents gave us their piano and I found a Piano for Preschoolers program that uses color coded notes to teach children basic music concepts. We have been working on short lessons and practice time at night and the kids are doing great with the music. Andon is getting better and better at counting notes and Bry is actually trying to sit still and focus.
