Jace has a little duck chick that he got when it was still in it's egg. He kept it warm and watched it hatch - PRETTY COOL HUH!
Oooooohhhhh the poor little thing! The kids smother it relentlessly! They chase it, pick it up, put it the water take it out etc. etc. After a few minutes we have to just put the little duck away to protect it.
Preston and Ella are cousins in Alexus' class at school. They have birthdays within a few days of each other. So their parents had a joined birthday party. Alexus always has to clarify which Ella - she describes them as Ella that goes to my school and Ella who doesn't goes to my school. So this is the Ella that goes to her school.
Alexus is learning how to "give" a present. She always thinks that she gets to keep it "after" she lets them open it. It is sad because she really gets heart broken when she realizes it isn't "hers".
Royce had a La Cross Game in St. George this weekend. Mamaw, Papaw, Alexus and I went down to watch and have a fun weekend with the dudes.
The kids swam and swam and swam some more. Royce was a good sport while Alexus & Cody poured water on his head.
Royces game was a lot of fun to watch. Alexus really got into cheering for him. She would yell at the top of her lungs "PASS THE BALL HHHHAAAARRRRDDD!"
She was hoarse for a few days after that.
What a cute fan.
Alexus invited a friend over for the first time. Ella lives over by Mamaw and Papaw so when Alexus is at their house they play together. They had a lot of fun they played dress up and just did girlie stuff. Alexus never wanted the day to end she cried when we got in the car. Luckily for everyone involved she was asleep before we got to Ella's house.
For Activity Days we had a Mothers Day Spa activity with our moms. Alexus came and gave me a pedicure. We really had a fun time together and she gave one mean pedi!
