Claire is so sweet. She decided that I was the star of the week and made this bracelet for me, in addition to other presents. She also placed this post-it in the kitchen where I would see it. She later noticed that the last M was placed upside down, but that imperfection makes is perfect to me! Love! Claire has been a busy little bee with school and activities-basketball, dance, and choir. She also has her fair share of play dates and a lot of birthday parties! Her favorite books are Elephant and Piggie and Junie B. Jones books. She is an animal lover and wants to be a zoologist.
Charlie is a fun loving and energetic little boy! He loves airplanes and it always on the look out for them. He is always going into his dad's office and playing with anything in there that he can get his hands on, especially the computer mouse. If Matt is in there, he will ask to see the airplanes and Matt usually can't resist showing him them on the computer screen. He loves Mickey Mouse. His favorite books are Goodnight Moon, and lift-the-flap books like Purdue Pete finds his Hammer. He talks all of the time and has many words in his vocabulary. He loves balls, rummaging through the pantry, and playing with his cousin Emmie. He is a good snuggler and loves to sing. The girls are so good with him and they think that he is hilarious!
Allie and her favorite little guy, Tundra. Charlie picked him our for her in Belleville and he's her constant companion! She sometimes tells me that she just can't stop starting at Tundra Tundy Newton (her full name) because she is too cute. Allie loves Team Umizoomi and going to Grace Preschool with her cousin. She plays with the boys! Ryan, Declan and Dane are who she's always talking about! She still likes to dress fancy and sometimes lets me and Claire know if she thinks a different outfit would be better! She is super sweet and always telling us how much she loves us. She currently is doing gymnastics and choir. She likes to keep things organized, is very observant and is very methodical and we call her our little engineer. She loves to help her dad with projects. She is my happy little helper!
