update

Nathan: Loving Preschool Partners, he only goes 2 afternoons per week but it's pretty intense and he is learning so much. He is reading more than I thought a preschooler could and Mrs Sailor says he is the one raising his hand with the answer most of the time. Matt and I are very impressed with the teaching philosophies and are leaning toward sending our kiddos to the Classical Academy. We will finalize our decision soon. Nato is still enjoying Kid's Music Playground. He is thriving, can play many songs on piano (using both hands) and his knowledge surpasses mine easily. Matt takes him so I'm usually lost, maybe I will take Whitney when she is old enough.

Whitney: Moments of terrible two's show up daily but at the same time, I love this age. She is learning her letters and loves visiting Nathan's school, always a big hug for his teachers. She will definitely be ready for preschool next fall. Whitney takes ballet while Nathan is at music class. She absolutely loves going and loves her teacher, Miss Tina. She is such a good listener and tries so hard, I am so proud of her. She was awarded 'dancer of the month' for November, very special. She got out of diapers at exactly 2&1/2 but this month, we've been dealing with more #2 accidents than I would like to. This too shall pass. She is not my picky one, eating spicy foods and always wanting some of what daddy has. She loves hummus which cracks me up, but it's fabulous.

I'm on Moms at Twilight ministry team this year so us 3 head to the church every Wed night. Nathan is in choir and Whitney always looks forward to playing in the toddler room. It means a late night but well worth it. Mom still watches the kids on Thursday afternoons while I work and Jessica helps out every other Tuesday. We've had a lot of different people babysitting on the other Tuesdays, but the kids never mind, I guess they are used to it by now. We need to figure out something new when Jess has her baby in March. Need to start thinking about how it all looks next fall too. It's been kind of strange talking about kindergarten next year, I can't believe they are growing so fast!!!!
