Emily's 4k!

What, did I type that wrong? Nope, not Kaitlyn- EMILY got to go to 4k! Em's had her 4k screening and she was SOOO excited. She has been talking about going to 4k since well September when Kaitlyn got to go. So I knew when we got the letter in the mail she'd be stoked. And she was.
Her screening was February 17th. Daddy came home to watch the other kids so Emily and I could go. It was so fun to go with her. She did so well for all the tests: hearing, vision, speech, large and small motor development, cutting, coloring, following directions and such. I can't believe how big my little baby is getting! Of coarse I forgot to take pictures until it was time to leave. But here she is walking on the balance board and climbing the cube to jump off.




In February I decided I was tired of washing, drying, folding, and putting away the 6 outfits a day that Kaitlyn was wearing. SO in hopes that I could get her down to 2 or heaven forbid 1 outfit a day I decided she was now in charge of folding and putting away her own laundry.




She actually really liked it and did really well. For about a month. I have been doing it all again lately. This is a good reminder to me, next load she's folding again! Haha. Actually though I was really impressed with how well she did. I thought it would be a huge pain and I'd have to teach her a lot. I was pleasantly surprised at how well and quickly she picked it up. Now to keep it up! Haha.

Speaking of folding laundry...I sat down to fold and didn't get very far.



This is pretty typical and why I usually wait tell the kids are in bed for the night before I fold. :) I do have to say though that I love cuddling up with them!

Two of my favorite boys



Emily and Evan



Gumball is this little bear that came from 4k to live with us for a few days. We got to take him places and take pictures with him. We took him to our local Piggly Wiggly (grocery)





One night in the middle of the night I heard Evan so I got up and started upstairs to get him. Luckily I turned on a light first (I don't usually) otherwise I would have stepped on



LOGAN!! Apparently he came down stairs and FELL !ASLEEP! on the bottom step. Haha. I was laughing so hard. I just scooped him up and took him to his bed on my way to get Evan. What a funny boy!

Oh My Goodness! I can't believe that last photo! Did he really fall asleep there? WOW!

Ava was too excited to go to 4K this year. Emily will love it too! She's getting so big!

We love the dolphin ride at Piggly Wiggly (I still want to call it Dick's!). You can't be 1c price for a ride!

So cute!

and, oh, my, I can't believe you really have a Piggly Wiggly! I thought they were a fictional invention of authors who write about the South!
