Slacking...

Wow, it's been over a week since my last post and I have no real good excuse. No big events to blog about but that definitley doesn't mean things are boring around here, maybe we are just moving at a bit of a slower pace. Evenings seem to be a bit lower key as the temps outside are too cold for the kids to enjoy and on top of that the sun sets just shortly after we get home in the afternoons. I have actually sat on the couch a few nights and sat through a whole 30-minute tv show as the kids tend to entertain themselves better than a year ago this time. Though this isn't the norm, I am seeing a little more uninterrupted time in my future.
A&A are almost 4 1/2 now. They are both doing great in school and we never have to worry about bad notes home from the teacher. Avery is a teacher pleaser - loves to write her letters, raises her hand for everything and loves to get attention. Austin loves school but primarily because of the playground, not the classroom. I forsee a few dificult nights of homework in the future. Caleb is days shy of turning 3. He makes us laugh everyday.... little guy is a clown. He's enjoying school and doing well in all his activities. There are days I forget he is only 2. In so many ways he is just like his brother and sister and wants to be a part of everything they do.
We are getting ready for a busy spring, one that includes a family trip to Disney World. We will experience lots of firsts including their first plane ride. Should be entertaining! We have backups, both sets of grandparents are coming along too. I think they'd prefer to see the huge smiles on the kids faces opposed to hearing about them.
