April Update

Kalijah is already one month old. He is growing good and so far has not got the sickness we've all had. He is a smiley baby and loves when his brothers talk or sing to him. His brothers love having him home try to be very helpful. He is a good baby and has such a sweet spirit, we are blessed to have him. 

Kayson is going through the terrible 2 stage a little early ;) His two favorite words are no and uh-uh. He has figured out how to get out of his crib. The other night I saw his light come on and heard him playing with his toys and when I opened the door there he was out of the crib playing with his toys. We will be changing him into his toddler bed this week. He loves to read books, play with trains, and anything that his older brother does. He is learning his ABC's and can already sing/say all of the alphabet. He loves Blue's Clues, Caillou, Elmo, and Thomas. Krehl was nice enough to give Kayson his Thomas sheets, blanket, and pillow which Kayson was very excited about. He likes to stretch and attempts to break dance. He loves to try to help with the baby, I have to watch him very closely because any chance he gets he wants to give the baby his binkie or bottle. He is growing up so fast.

Krehl is a very smart boy. He loves learning about everything and is at the why stage. He can write every letter in the alphabet and can count to 20. He likes to read, dress up like super Batman and Spiderman, cooking, and to help take care of his brothers. He learned how to spell his name this week and has been spelling it using magnets, foam letters, chalk, crayons, and his drawing pad. We've started doing so workbooks and he likes to find words in the word searches and write down as many words as he can. He has been getting better at sharing and has been a good little helper. Him and Kayson are both very good about saying their prayers and Krehl always reminds us to read our scriptures before bed. One of his favorite activities is playing the Wii Fit and he is very good at it. He is excited to be able to start kindergarten next year.

We have been trying to catch up on our spring cleaning. I've been going through closets, bedrooms, clothes, toys, etc. trying to get rid of everything we don't use or need anymore. I've been packing up my maternity clothes and any baby items we no longer need since Kalijah is our last. It has been nice to have a few days of good weather so the boys can play outside. We have lots of catching up to do on yard work but our garage and barn are almost cleaned out. It's been weird not doing my coupon site but it has been so nice to take a break from it and just enjoy my family this month. It has been an adventure learning how to adjust to 3 boys ages 4 and under but I wouldn't trade it for the world. I cherish every minute of it because I know it will go by so fast.

Kayson loves his brother

Riding on Thomas to put out a fire

I was taking a pic of my chicken deal and Kayson wanted me to take a pic of him with the chicken

I gave the boys some sidewalk chalk to play with and when I came back out Krehl showed me he wrote all of his ABC's :)

Krehl just learned how to spell his name :)
