Spring

 I signed Xander up for Soccer.  He loves it.  He is not real aggressive but he does have fun!  I thought he had to go potty at one point during the "game".  He said, "No Mom, I don't have to go.  I can hold it, My team NEEDS me!"  He is the youngest on the team, so I am pretty impressed with how well he does!

 Celia at 5.5 months is just as cute as ever.  Every poopy diaper she has gets Everywhere.  Therefore she gets lots of baths.  She loves the bath and I love the smell of wet baby after a bath, so I don't mind Too much.  Plus it gives her the chance to wear all the really cute outfits we have for her!

 I always see really cute pictures of Mom's and babies, self portraits on other blogs and I think, how cute.  I should do that, but they never look as cute.  But for family history, I include these  "gems".  I love my babies!

 Xander has a fear of Flies.  We were on the hunt to swat some today.  The chain he is wearing around his neck is something he made yesterday.  It is TAPE at the end of the yarn.  He is really into tape and making signs.  He has me write things on the signs and then he tapes Popsicle sticks to the back.  He also likes to tape signs all around the house.  

Here are some of the things he has me write,

"Bathroom"

"Stop Kids"

"3 Cheers for Romney"

(We watch a lot of Politics in this house)

"No big boys on Baby Celia's Toy"

"Grandma, and Grandpa's Room"

"Don't go in Grandpa's office"

Xander is also back into saying the Prayer.  He had a time where he did not want to say the prayer anymore but now, ever since we went to Uncle Jeff's one time for dinner and they held hands, he wants to say prayers holding hands.  We hold hands at dinner and we hold hands for our night time prayers.

Xander always prays that everyone will drive safe and he prays for Heavenly Father too.  I think that is pretty neat.  Heavenly father does need our prayers for all the people he has to watch over. 

 Thank you Heavenly Father for sending Xander to us!

Grandma and Grandpa Johnson sent a big Spring Package for Xander and Celia!

Thanks!

They did not send a Fly Swatter but Xander did not want to put it down.

Celia must be growing because she has been asleep for the past 4 hours and so I am having time to blog.  Therefore she is not included with her Books and adorable Hair Bows and cute Cow but I am sure she will be excited when she wakes up!
