BABY NEWS!

We're happy to announce that Baby Allen #4 will be joining us in July 2010! I'm 9 weeks pregnant!!!! We had to go ahead and start telling people because I had friends asking about my baby bump, yes this early! So, hopefully I'll do a better job with our blog this year & keep everyone updated on everything! Love you all!!

general update! :)

At the request of a certain someone, I'm updating some!

Morgan is about to finish the school year. She has a science project due in 2 weeks. Hopefully I'll get to home school her next year, or at least put her back at the better school. Unfortunately, she's probably going to be repeating 2nd grade. Her dance recital is in a month! She's been taking jazz/hip-hop & ballet. Her costumes are gorgeous this year & she looks beautiful in them! We just did recital pictures w/ the makeup & everything. She's really growing up! She loves to read to her little brothers & help teach them things.

Little David will be 2 on May 18!!! He's about 50% potty trained. He's still in physical therapy but has come so far! As soon as he's jumping and a few other little things, he'll be discharged. He can count to 10, knows some of his colors, shapes & letters. He loves music. He likes to sing, play piano & play the drum while singing praise & worship. He likes to draw too. He's our funny guy! He'll do something to make you laugh & just keep going until you have to get up to do something.

Big Boy Alex! Can you believe he turned 3 last month!? He's starting to read & recognizes several small words from sounding them out. He's doing simple math w/ toys. He enjoys being outside & riding his bike he got for his birthday. While the boys fight a lot, he's a nurturing big brother, always looking out for David. He has played a huge role in potty training David. Alexander can write his name now & knows how to spell several words like David, Daddy, Mommy, Papa, Out, Go, In, Stop, Cat, Car, Hat.

The boys & I stay busy with lots of crafts & projects. The walls in the dining room & playroom are covered w/ things they've been working on! We recently made a volcano on paper & then went outside & made a volcano explode!
