the blue period

We have been working on the color blue this past week. I'm starting to get quite discouraged. They just don't get colors. I am always pointing out colors and they very rarely get their colors correct. So I figured we would just concentrate on one color at a time. A few people have said that they are only 2.5 don't worry about it. The way I figure, if they can name all the Dragontale characters and they know the difference between a stegosaurus and a tyrannosaurus rex they should be able to at least know what the color blue is. So this past week we've painted with just blue paint, used just the blue crayons and pulled out all the blue letter magnets. We even ate blueberry muffins, sorted the blue blocks, blue trucks, and the blue stuffed animals. At the end of the week -Cole holds up her play-doh to me and proudly says "lellow"
Oh, I'm still so blue...

Congratulations Drew


Congratulations Uncle Drew on making brown belt in jiu jitsu. (I had to look up the ranking.) The brown belt is right under black. Way to go!! I hope all those years of holding me down to blow in my face had someway contributed :)

Fun at the Boardwalk

Daddy took the afternoon off, from working on the house.(Which means he only put in 5 hours of work instead of the normal 12) We took off to Point Pleasant boardwalk for some rides and ice cream.

Moes favorite ride is the train. As we left he kept on saying "toot a looooo- train see you soooooon." Coles favorite ride was the carousel.

Crazy Cousin Klaire!

I take so many pictures my kids won't look at me anymore.

Dress up

Having a little fun playing dress up. Aunt Kathy gave us a suitcase full of dress up clothes. Cole wants to do nothing but dress up as Cinderella. She's not a princess- she's Cinderella. Even Moe is getting into it. Since almost all the clothes are dresses. I made an Arthur mask for Moe.


We have a few of daddy's hats for him to play with. His favorite hat right now is an Easter bonnet. He insists that it's a cowboy hat. He loves stomping around in his Boots, yelling Ye ha!
