April Winds Bring......

Another windy and busy week. Little Valley Elementary had its annual Meet The Masters Art Show. All year they have been studing different artists and their individual styles and mediums that they use. Each student got to choose their favorite picture to display. Rylee was so proud of her picture and wanted to show it off.
We bought them their first flip flops. Here they are trying to walk down the slick halls of the school. They either flipped them backwards or slid forwards. They did a couple of superman moves as well. Reganne mastered it and then tried to show Rylee. Before we left the art show they had figured it out and were walking fairly normal.
Reganne was invited to her first birthday party. She wasn't to sure about giving someone else a toy. Even if it was her friend. She wanted it for herself. The party was at "JumpinJacks" and it was full of blowup bounce toys. There were mostly slides and required climbing up and sliding down. Reganne went full force and loved it. This slide was the largest and required alot of climbing. She made it with a couple of boosts from people behind her. By the end she was doing it by herself. She would stand at the top, jump, and slide down. At the bottom she was all smiles and would go again. After 2 hours she was worn out. Thank goodness for me.
Ryder went with us and enjoyed the ice cream. However, he wanted to slid as well. When I put him in the stroller he started to fuss. He wanted to play.
Ryder has had a rough week. Along came his second tooth and it brought ear infections and coughing. He would cough so hard that he would throw up. After visiting the doctor about his stomach. Which has improved greatly. He started him on breathing treatments for the congestion and cough. Also, antibiotics for his ears. The good news is that he grew an inch, but only gained 10 ounces. So his current height is 25 3/4 inches and 13 pounds 12 ounces. Reganne when she saw the him doing the breathing treatment. Asked me why Ryder was smoking? Then quickly tried to blow it away from him. So now when it is time for a treatment we say that we need to "smoke the baby". He sounds much better and his eating has improved.
He got tried of waiting for the girls to go to bed and fell asleep. He now loves to sleep on his side. He still will only roll to his side.

My girls love flip flops! Annalise has been wearing them for years so Robyn became adept at them at an early age -- due to the fact she loves to wear Annalise's shoes (or anyone elses for that matter). Poor Ryder. I'm glad he's feeling better. It's so sad when babies have trouble breathing. We had to give Robyn a couple of breathing treatments when she was younger. It certainly helps with the congestion!
