think back on all that has occurred in our short time here. Jacob and Kate will finish their first term of school here, passing into the next level(standard 7 for jacob, standard 2 for kate). They are doing well, making friends and are starting to swim in our pool on a daily basis. Next term Jacob will take on cricket as his sport, and there's some talk of a basketball team being started.. some american idiot father of five has stated he wants to be the coach.... we will win..... we will win...... it's still up in the air though . Maura survived her first term at Tiny Bubbles.. I think being the minority was rough for her, but she did well. She loved "Monkeynastiks" and even received a medal for her accomplishments.. Bubby is her friend, still haven't figured out who that is and Ms. Grace and Ms. Emily Elizabeth are her favorite teachers. She is now potty trained, kind of, it only took til her 3rd b-day. She doesn't poop in her pants, she "diarrheas them". Nice. She won't nap and therefore the hours between 3pm-7pm are the "maura's a complete basket case" time. She's great though, and enjoying being home with Celeste and the twins. The twins have grown so much, are going through 2 major periods in their life... Franny is obsessed with shoes, mostly hers, and Jude is obsessed with being naked.. He won't keep on his diaper, and really enjoys what he's discovered underneath the diaper. But, I'm sure this will pass( he sometimes wears underpants over his diaper to keep him intact). They are on a great schedule, they wake up around 6:30, take a nap at 10:30, sleep til 1 or 1:30 and back in bed for the night at 7. It's great.. They are talking alot(franny mosly) , and starting to play together, plus kissing and hugging on each other... Jude eats anything, while franny refuses to sit in her chair.. She eats practically nothing b/c of this.
Other than that, it's business as usual... they love outlets, pointy things, electrical cords, poisonous berries and flushing toilets..
Below is a photo slideshow of the wedding I attended.. People have been asking to see more pictures, so here you are. coming up in the next few days is a video of Kate's end of the school year gala.... It's great to see for all those Kate fans out there. All for now, i'll have that video up soon, once I sift through the footage.
