Staying busy!

Well, we made it though our tball season, or as Max would quickly correct me "Baseball season".  I still didn't get any pictures, but it was a great experience!  Max has started physical therapy to address an "awkward running gait".  He is working really hard at building strength in his legs and stomach.  He does great with his physical therapist~sometimes he has a little too much fun though:)
Calli is still dancing and is getting ready to move up to the next level.  She is really excited about going each week~I hope it continues as the difficulty increases. 
They are going to school 3 days a week and really loving it.  They have started going to computer class on Fridays~which Max LOVES.  Calli is more interested in the music class that they go to on Wednesdays.  She won't sing the songs for us when we ask, but when she is playing she sings a variety of songs about Jesus and how to spell colors:)  Speaking of singing, the kids have become very familiar with the top hits on the radio as my CD player is currently broken.  Their favorite songs are "Moves like Jagger" by Maroon 5, "Super Bass" by Nicki Manaj and "Last Friday Night" by Katie Perry.  I can't say that I approve of the lyrics or the lyrics that they think are correct, but it beats hearing screaming and fighting!!!  The other day at school, Max was laying down for naptime and was being disruptive.  His teacher told me she walked over to him to ask him to be quiet and she realized he was singing "moves like Jagger".  She had to quickly turn away to keep from laughing before she asked him to be quiet.  It seems like every week we get some kind of "Max story" home from school.  They find him to be "full of personality".  He also learned how to snap this week which he thinks is SO COOL. 
Calli has been mostly into pretend play.  She is often a vet taking care of her cat or dogwho is either having a party or has a boo boo and needs attention.  She is also often playing with her babies, taking them to school or on a field trip.  She has joined Max in his love for wrestling and has earned the name "pretty girl".  Craig wrestles with them for about 15 minutes every night on our bed.  Luckily, no major injuries have occurred~knock on wood!!!
They are dressing up as Spiderman and Cinderella for Halloween. I am learning to sew and made a treat bag for Calli.  It turned out really well~at least for my first project.
We also visited the Zoo last week.  It was a great day!  It was cool outside so the animals were active.  Also, the decorations for the Halloween Party were up, so the kids were even more entertained.

I love this pic~this is how a giraffe has to stand to get a drink.  We also learned that his tongue is as long as the kids arm~They thought that was AWESOME!

These pictures are from a farm that we went to last weekend.  It was another great day~animals to feed, hay mazes, pumpkin bowling, horse rides, hay rides and of course snacks!!!

Oh, and I almost forgot.  We weighed the kids the other day.  Max weighs 51 lb and Calli 37.6!  No wonder I can't pick him up anymore:(
