kid stuff
Anna enjoys reading, but she's a bit picky about what she likes. She *loves* Junie B. Jones and has read almost all of those. She's read a few Magic Treehouse books and thought they were ok, but didn't love them. Her latest love is The Babysitter's Little Sister Karen (a spinoff series from The Babysitters Club books). Karen is a 7 year old girl whose parents are divorced. She has a stepmother, stepfather, a full brother, step brothers and sisters, and even an adopted half sister from Vietnam. She read the first one at school, I've gotten her a couple at the library, and a stack of 7 from eBay. She's loving cheerleading and it's definitely more her thing that TBall or soccer.
Stephen is now in Book 3 on piano (same book as Anna). He's extremely excited that a 4 year old boy is probably moving in two houses down from us and apparently not that upset that the 5 year old boy he's been playing with the past year and a half is moving away. Again. For the second time in 5 months. He's doing great at basketball and really seems to enjoy it so far.
Matthew is talking more and more. Still not more than 2 word sentences, but tons of words. He loves to sing that "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree" song. Noooooooo no, nooooooooo no, no, no, noooooooo no, da da da da da da. :)
