The Kids

John has taken to saluting me. When ever I ask him to do something he salutes me and says, "Yes, sir!" He loves preschool and I can't believe he starts Kindergarten in the fall!
April loves telling everyone in Nursery what to sing next. Everyone tells me it's not a huge issue but I don't really want her to be the bossy. At least she knows what she wants, right? She does love to sing though. On time she was singing the same 4 songs for a half hour. I tried to sing her something else. She listened, but as soon as I finished (not even time for a breath) she started singing what she wanted to again. That girl!
Katelyn got her bottom two teeth at 4 1/2 months old! Also, the other day I went to get her up from her nap and she was cuddling with her dollys. It was too cute! I think I have another April in the making.

Animal Sounds

Today I April and I were going over animal sounds.

Me- What does a goat say?
April- I don't know.
Me- maaaa
April- baaa
Me- no, mmmmmaaaa
April- mmm-baaa

My Cute Kiddos

Seeing Jason Off

Jason reported to the MTC February 9th. I took the kids to spend a week with Uncle Jason before he left. Adam and I got to go through the temple with Jason for the first time and we were there for his farewell talk in church. Jason is now in Kentucky Louisville Mission field as on February 28. He is seeming to love it already.

All the family that came for the farewell
All 13 of usMaking silly faces with Uncle JasonSee. We can take a normal picture...but where's the fun in that.

"I can't hear anything."
If you can't tell what it is, he has the ends of drawstrings from the blinds in his ears. Is he ready for an iPod already?

Too Big for Their Britches

I keep thinking that my kids are getting big way too fast. Every time I do I hear Grandpa Peterson's voice in my head, "They're getting too big for their britches!"

I was just playing around with the camera today and got some great pictures!

Pancakes

Adam almost always makes pancakes Saturday mornings for us. John spent the night at Aunt Sara's one night and she made him pancakes in the morning. John told her Daddy makes pancakes. Sara asked if Mommy ever made them for him. "No. She doesn't know how."

Well, I decided that maybe wasn't all bad. John never asked me for pancakes, only Adam. On Tuesday I wanted pancakes. John comes and sees me making them. "You know how, Mommy? Good job. Daddy teached you."
