Our Week

Lydia was honored this week with a Paw of Praise.  When the teacher catches a student going above and beyond in a school value, they can recieve a Paw of Praise.  They get to visit the front office and place a paw on the special bulletin there.  Lydia was honored for Sincerity, Respect and Responsibility.  Her teacher said she's a hard worker, great listener, and is always looking for ways to help others out.  Love our Lydi!

Robbie did well at his game this week.  By the end of the game whenever Robbie got the ball the other parents on our team started to chant, "Dunk that ball".  They all think it's amazing how tall he is (actually we all do-he's 5'2" now).  His team is very supportive of each other, and it's been a good group to play with this year.

Lydi had her first game this week too.  Here is Lydi, passing the ball in for her team.

She was one of the few from either side that remembered to dribble the ball.  It's hilarious to watch these kids while they learn the basics.   She just needed to pass a little farther to her team mate.
It's so fun to watch our kids learn and grow!

OIT

Robbie had 10 peanuts at his OIT appointment this week!!!!  Each month the progress becomes more exciting!  He eats 8 peanuts/day at home now and will get up to 12 peanuts/day before his next appointment in April. 

Puzzles

Thomas loves to put together puzzles.  We bought him this new Lion Guard one at the dollar store.  He sat right down to figure it out and he finished it all on his own!

Basketball

Lydi is making some good baskets now in her basketball class.  Her teacher also gave her a Valentine's balloon this week.



Robbie did well in his game also.  He scored 5 points to help his team win.
Making his free throw.

It's hard to tell who shot the ball in the video but it was Robbie:)

Monday

The kids had school off on Monday.  We decided to see the new Lego Batman movie.  We were surprised to see our theater had recliners for all of us to sit in!  Most comfortable movie I've ever been to and the kids felt very special.

Afterwards we met Brian for lunch and then headed to the park to play.  The kids found this tree to climb.

It was such a beautiful day!  We were sad to see when we got back to our car that someone had broken in and stolen my purse.  Luckily Brian was close and was able to come help us.  We are grateful no one was hurt.

Saturday

Brian recently changed jobs.  He works MUCH closer now with about a 5-10 min commute.  We are so excited:)  On Saturday we visited his new office.


Then we headed up to Universal Studios since our passes expire at the end of the month.  We wanted to try out butterbeer at Harry Potter World.  It's made in a facility with peanuts, but we can have that now!  We got a regular one and a frozen one.  My favorite was the frozen.



We also did some other rides.  Here we are on the Studio Tours.

It was a fun day!
