Life has been a real hacker around here for the last month and that is my excuse for my absence on the blog. Brooklynn brought home a simple cold with a runny nose.  No big deal....until it hit Irelyn.  Irelyn's little cold turned into a double ear infection and RSV!  Our Piglet was absolutely miserable for about 2 weeks.  She was running a fever and just wanted to be held.  We did a lot of snuggling and watched a lot of Disney movies.
We are now on the other side of the yuckiness and life is great!
Irelyn has been attending Lunch Bunch at Brooklynn's preschool.  This is a fun, social time offered from 12:00 - 2:30 pm by the 3 and 4 year old teacher, Ms. Edie.  Irelyn loves this time and seems to be just as social as her older sister.  She is also attending gymnastics on Friday mornings with Spiderman Dave as her instructor.

Brooklynn has been learning about space at preschool and is loving it.  We have found 2 books about space and planets and have been reading those over and over and over again.  Her preschool always finds the perfect balance between social time and exciting units that peak Brooklynn's interest.  Jesse decided to support the new interest in space and took the girls out to purchase their very own rockets.  With a lot of excitement we headed out to Uncle Jason's open field to shoot off the two "huge" rockets.

This child seriously has NO FEAR!  As with many other qualities, Irelyn is exactly the opposite.

Brooklynn is in the Monkey class at school and they have a favorite class song.  Pretty stinkin' cute!

We are looking forward to spring and park weather.  We hope you all have a wonderful Easter and are staying healthy.
