The weekend went way too fast. WE can't hardly wait for Friday, and then it gets here and the weekend is gone so fast. Our family is feeling like we need a mini vacation. Just to rejuvenate. Jappy had to force retirement of one of his ladies this week and it has been REALLY hard on him. She has kept him organize and going since he got there. We don't know what he will do with out her. It doesn't help that she is such a sweet women. She's brought us dinner, was Jay's first visitor when I had him, She's had gifts for the kids for every holiday and birthday and just loves our kids like they were her own grandchildren. We've even put her as our emergency contact for our kids at the school. She means so much to us and it has just broken Jappy's heart. (there was nothing he could do they eliminated her position in the bank) So she decided to retire early. We will really miss seeing her when we visit/or call the bank.
Mady's soccer team is starting to figure out how to play the game (finally) They played really well on Saturday. They actually won!! They don't keep score...but... They WON! Mady had some Great Hard kicks the goaly had some great saves. But Mady attempted a few shots on the goal. We were so PROUD!
Miss B is silly She only has about 10 days of preschool left and is really sad about that. She says she's going to miss Mrs. Joni. I know she will. She was a perfect fit for Brooklyn. She was able to meet other kids her own age and with out the help of her sister. She will be ready for kindergarten.
Mr. Magoo had an exciting week. He started clapping his hands. It's sooo cute. We sing "If your happy and you know it" and he claps and bobs his head. Oh it's cute. He also does a fake cough. we'll cough and then he will unless he has an audience he won't do it. He has also discovered the cupboards. Yeah that's not so fun for me. He loves it and he loves cords, Mady's jump rope. He also started making the fish noise (smacking his lips), and gives kisses. It usually a wet slobbery one but it's a kiss none the less. He gets funner every day. We love to hear him laugh which is often. At church today he wandered under the pews and was just loved on by everyone. It's so great to see so many of our friends love our kids. We are So Blessed. We spent Saturday outside doing yard work and he crawled in the grass all day, and loved every minute of it. We picked weeds out of the rock beds and he was fascinated with the rocks. Picking them up and analyzing them. Then he would drop it and find another. He's all BOY. He's taking more steady steps behind his walking toy. He will be walking before we know it and before we would like. Our baby is growing so fast.
He truly has brought so much joy to us.
The girls asked me last night "Mom when are we going to have another brother?"
I didn't know what to tell them. But for now we are just going to enjoy what we have.

That's awesome that Mady's doing great at soccer and her team is figuring it out! Sounds like you had a great weekend aside from the sweet old lady having to retire. These are tough times, so at least that's all Jap had to do.... Hope you have a great week!

sorry about the sweet old lady. It sounds like you are going through the same things I have been for the last couple of months my boys are into everything life is just crazy when you have babies that age. Jay is sure a handsome little guy though so that has to make up for any trouble he might get in!!!
