Swensen Sentral

Have gotten behind. Here's some updates.  Amelie had a beautiful baptism.  Rick and I celebrated our 12 year anniversary I started babysitting the two little blond girls in the picture for extra money.  We dogsat our friends two dogs over Easter weekend and boy was our house chaotic. They rotated between playing and sleeping.   The kids LOVE the trampoline. It's a favorite pastime and the favorite spot for all the neighborhood kids. Definitely worth the money.  Celebrated Easter and General Conference with the missionaries.  Love snuggling with my kitty.  Finally finished our mudroom closet! Met Rick for lunch and fed the koi fish. Got to attend a Cardinals game with VIP tickets from a friend and enjoy exclusive access to the field and all-you-can-eat food during the game. So fun.  Every morning Soleil tries to put a swimsuit on for her daily outfit, and every morning I tell her to go change into normal clothes. This morning was no different. Afte...

Chase came home from school today and told me that he got 1st place in pull-ups for 3rd grade! He was so happy and proud about it. What impressed me the most was that when I asked how many 2nd place got, he answered 8.  Haha!  He doubled the second place score!  He also got 2nd place in push-ups.  Proud mommy here. Can't wait to see where this boy goes. 

Sawyer is trying to impress me with his math skills. He asked me to ask him some math questions. So we started with 2+2.  He got it. Then 4+4. He got it. Then I asked, what's 8+8. He thought for a second and then said, "Let me just look at my pretty fingers for a second. I'm just looking at my pretty fingers."  I found it funny that he thought I wouldn't know he was counting in his head.  Haha!
