Here's what the kids were up to this month.
Liam:
Competed in his Destination Imagination final. The group did awesome and his problem solving skills were amazing to watch in action!
It took lots of practicing to get their play just right. They made all the costumes, wrote and directed their play!
Principal Davis came to cheer them on!
DI team: Rayming, Avishree, Liam, Justin, Priya and Rohan
Celebrating their great job with a night a Chuck E Cheese!
Award ceremony at school! So proud!
Pine car derby with his boy scout pack.
Participating in his school's multicultural night. Liam represented Italy because he figured out he was 12.5% Italian :) He did a great job teaching his schoolmates a few words in Italian and serving tortellini.
Still playing with Wilson, his soft indoor soccer ball he's had since he was a baby...
Valentine's party at school!
Loving on his littlest sis...
Celebrating his half birthday (it's officially a thing in our house)!
Getting to go home from school with best buddy Justin...
We received Liam's scores from his standardized tests...99th percentile across the board in the nation! So proud of this kid!
Elinor:
Yes, she has decided her name is Elinor, or rather when asked will tell you her name is Elinor Barker. Pronounced "Elinoor Bahkah" :)
Hanging with her BFF, her big sister Bryn. She is enamored of Bryn and I'm so happy they are little buddies :)
Still dressing herself. To be fair we handed her the football when we realized she looked like Ace Ventura, haha!
Crazy girl...
Tea party with playgroup girls. While Bryn doesn't get into this "girly" stuff, Elinor does!
Tough princess ;)
Playing trains with Dallie and Foxy...
Baby doll in one hand, Pink Ranger sword in the other...that's our girl!
Bryn:
She is doing so well in school. Here is the contents of her folder from 1 week at school. Studying shapes, abstract art, singular/plural words, parts of a leaf and frog, and fractions. She's amazing!
Bryn did our squares for the Super Bowl this year!
Making my Costco list for me...
Bryn presented on mass, density and volume at her school's science fair this year. She worked so hard on her poster and we were all very proud of her!
Bryn was set up next to her bff Devyn...
Their teacher, Ms. Vishali...
Her masterpiece!
Still loving soccer and her teammate Arya...
Cheering her on...
This was Bryn's first year attending the Daddy-daughter dance. They had a great time eating cookies, dancing, and playing at the arcade afterwards!
Bryn really enjoys her one-on-one time, so Mallie and Dallie took her for a day one weekend. They did mani-pedis, (her first one!), had lunch at Fuzzy's (her favorite), and played lots of games!
Nick:
Found out he was getting a big promotion and new position later this year. So we took the family out to dinner to celebrate! So proud of him and how hard he works.
Family time:
Alex and Tippy were back for a weekend and came to the Krewe of Barkus Mardi Gras parade with us...
Mardi Gras Fat Tuesday party at our church...
Celebrating Dallie and Tippy's birthdays...
Celebrating Chinese New Year with Grandpa and Grandma...
Lindsey and JE had a great wedding shower in Houston...
We had a great visit with Uncle Tim, Aunt Debbie, Britty and baby Dottie!
Brittany took the kids climbing which they loved!
Yeah, I'm exhausted just recapping this month. Bring on Spring Break!
