saturday cell phone mosaic

if you follow me on twitter, then you already know this past week has been fun! we had a day at the park, samantha got her sparkie award, of course, we had a tea party with her new tea set! more to come later in the week.

visit ace's blog and join in on the picture fun!

my babies are growing up

tonight was a very exciting night for samantha - it was her first time at sparks. i am now so glad that i am going to homeschool her because i could've almost cried when we dropped her off tonight. i can't imagine what i would be like letting her go off to school....!

anyway, sparks is totally different than cubbies. when she started cubbies the parents were supposed to stay the first night so that they could see what the kids do and meet the teachers. but tonight at sparks? nope, just drop your kid off and don't find out who their teachers are!

would she know what to do? would she know what verses she needed to say? would she know how to play the games?

i guess i'm either in denile that she's five or i totally underestimate her. she did just fine tonight and had a lot of fun!

here she was at the start of cubbies last year. doesn't she look thrilled that i'm taking her picture?

my cubbie has turned into a sparkie!

and then there's my other baby who is growing up every day! tonight ryan learned how to "roll 'em." instead of clapping all the way through patty-cake (pat-a-cake, whatever), he now tries to say "roll" and moves his hands up and down while making a fist. now we just have to get him to clap again since all he wants to do now is roll!
