What a week! Luke turned 2 on Saturday...yes, the baby is 2! He loved opening presents and blowing out his candles. We let him blow them out a few extra times cuz it was so cute. We had gorgeous weather so we got to play outside with all the cousins. We also found out that Avery is going to be a big sister in April! On Sunday we had a family reunion here with Grandpa Jones and all of Uncle Larry's family. There were 26 of us here. Again, gorgeous weather allowed everyone to be outside playing on the swingset and trampoline. Needless to say the kids were exhausted heading into a busy week.
Grace went to the allergist on Monday to have bloodwork done to check on the treenut allergy and to check for environmental allergies. She was less than thrilled for the blood work but agreed afterwards that it really wasn't that bad.
Tuesday was Owen's first day of preschool. On the way there he asked me, "Mom, you are leaving, right?". He walked in, never looked back and emerged at the end of the day with a huge smile for me and hugs for the teachers. He had an awesome first week. He has 2 very loving and fun teachers and 10 other kids to play with. He'll tell you that his favorite is playing outside and the snack time! He wowed the teachers by already knowing the prayer they sing at snack on a daily basis. It's helps having an older sister teaching him the ropes.
Our church's 101'st Lawn Fete festival is this weekend and I'm helping out with coordinating the volunteers for the annual chicken dinner. I've been in and out of the church all week getting ready. Again, thank goodness that Jason works out of the house...Luke has gotten to stay home and have naps while I ran around this week.
Grace had a soccer game lastnight and another one tomorrow (Saturday). She does a good job of keeping up with everyone and can play great defense. She doesn't have interest in playing goalie at this time...who knows, that could always change! She is the youngest one out there...K, 1st and 2nd graders.
