spring soccer

Grandpa Contant was able to see Tristan play soccer while he was here last weekend!
Way to go, Tristan!

John was the coach this spring- he did an awesome job.

..and here's what Ella does to keep herself occupied during the game!

field trip

The boys and I took a trip to the Legoland Discovery Center. I think they both had a good time- the best part for Tristan was buying a silver stormtrooper lego guy from the store on our way out! Aidan loved throwing the big foam lego blocks!

the past 6 months

Well, if anyone is still checking our blog, here's what we've been up to the past six months...

a lot of GROWING!

Tristan will be 10 this summer and is still my right hand man. He is a tender hearted,

compassionate boy who loves his family. His favorite thing to do is to be home, wearing comfy

clothes, eating Chinese and watching a movie with his family. I hope this lasts a long time!

Tristan is doing well with his piano lesson, art class, and soccer (John is the coach this year!).
Tristan is a great big brother and is adored by Aidan and Ella.

Ella is our sweet six year old, who is almost done with kindergarten! She is extremely

competetive and gives her brothers a run for their money! Ella loves gymnastics and singing

in the church choir. She is also the social butterfly at school, going to every birthday party

and playdate that she's invited to! Ella and John love to dance and listen to music- and her

current favorite tune (with all lyrics memorized) is U2's "Sexy Boots." Thank you, John.

Aidan is a big 2 year old now! He is the funny guy in the house and

loves a good joke! He talks a lot and we can pretty much understand what he's

trying to communicate most of the time. He LOVES any type of ball and has a wicked

throw and can kick the ball pretty well, too! He keeps us on our toes. And yes, the

"nunni" (a.k.a pacifier) is still a dear friend!
