when the third and fourth grade teachers performed our dance, we had matching outfits, mustaches and all.  greyson found my and wanted to put it on.  he thought it felt funny and wouldn't crack a smile.

greyson and I made cupcakes for him to take to preschool.  he loves to help in the kitchen.

this is greyson's preschool class.  we had mother's night.  the kids sang songs, we went on a bear hunt, made a craft, and ate some snacks.  it was a nice evening just me and my bubba.

john and i went on a date on a monday...what? i know, it's unheard of.  we had a coupon for 30% off so we went shopping and got the kids and us some spring/summer clothes for our trip to arizona.  we also went to haci and devoured chips and margaritas.  i branched out and got something different, their signature burrito.  won't be doing that again.  

yes, this is a picture of me and greyson.  i tried to get one of me and john on our date but i couldn't get my camera to flash. i learned why later...new phones stink sometimes!

greyson found these cups to be very entertaining.  he built this tower over and over.  it's the simple things...

i take greyson to swim lessons every tuesday night.  he was so tired he conked out on the way. i'm pretty sure he fell asleep mid-sentence.

after work the kids and i decided to make cookies.  eating the dough is what we all enjoy the most! :)

i'm a teacher so i've conducted parent teacher conferences 100's of times.  however, today was the first time i was on the other side of the conference and it felt a little strange.  i mean, i think my kid is pretty great, but you never know what a teacher sees.  many times it's different from what a parent sees! thankfully, we were told our son is ready for kindergarten! yeah! to celebrate him and all his hard work, we let him decide where he wanted to eat supper.  of course, he picked DQ. 

 

kenna was upset because i wouldn't let her drink my tea.  i just love it when she does this.  although, it will be stop being cute eventually! 

 

 

here's the star waiting for his food! we are so thankful for this little boy!

part of our nightly routine...brushing our teeth!

today was the first time we had snow that was good enough to make a snowman.  john and greyson played outside for hours.  they rode the fourwheeler, shoveled the sidewalk, and built the snowman.  they were so proud.

i heard greyson working in the office.  he was having a great time pretending to call customers just like his daddy.  i just stood at the door and watched him for a while.  he sure picks up on a lot.  

 

kenna having one of her tantrums. this age is so much fun! :)

 greyson is taking swim lessons.  he started in january and has them through the end of may.  it's quite the trek to get there from our little town in the middle of nowhere, but it's important that he learns how to swim since we have a pond.  he loves going (besides the drive) and has learned so much already.  can't wait to see what he's capable of in may!

i know this is technically not composed wonderfully, but i still love this image.  he was actually under the water and i was hoping to get him when he came out of the water just a little bit but he came out much faster than i expected.  so this is what i got.  i love that he is flexing his muscles and that you can see the water droplets.  it captures some of his energy that is ever present in his little body!

greyson is still obsessed with santa and christmas.  he often pics the night before christmas as his night time story.  he has most of it memorized!

this was greyson's first year to pass out valentine's.  after he made them for his preschool buddies, he had to do one for his daddy.  he was so excited to give it to him and even hid it behind his back and had the biggest smile when he gave it to him.  what a cutie!
