Updates

As you can see, I didn't tell anyone about this yesterday. I wanted to look at it one more time before I actually brought attention to it! I thought maybe today I would just give a little update on what the Spence's are up to. We'll start with the youngest member and work our way up!

Reyna: standing up with the help of whatever she can find, feeding herself Cheerios and fruit puffs, wrestling with whoever is willing

Kaiya: learning to sit up by herself, also stuffing herself with cereal, starting to defend herself when Reyna comes to her ready to wrestle

Camden: talking like a little man, hugging and loving on everyone, being best friends with Elijah

Elijah: getting more competent on the Wii (much to Mommy's dismay!), learning all kinds of cool stuff in preschool (aka: mommy-is-the-teacher-at-home-preschool), enjoying laying in the dirt and digging up rocks

Grayson: loving 1st grade - especially gym class("It's NOT P.E. Mom!"), taking a break from soccer and hoping to start karate, enjoying Cub Scouts for which he is currently selling popcorn and doing very well(people tell him he's quite the salesman)

Mommy: treasuring the opportunity to witness all of these precious moments, taking the kids on "an adventure ride" to get iced coffee from McDonald's, helping to plan part of the women's retreat at church

Daddy: working hard to provide for his family, taking time out to play a little tennis and soccer, wrestling daily with his children(yes, even the girls)

We are a busy and blessed bunch. In fact, Kaiya is waiting not-so-patiently for me to finish this so she can have a little snuggle.
