Going to try and keep up better (2/12/15)

February 12, 2015:
We need a way to keep memories of our kiddos. They are growing up so fast! The pictures are great, but the stories to reminisce would be a great complement. So, let me try and catch up. It's been a couple years since updating this so that means, Jaxson is now 7 and in 1st grade, Karson is 2 1/2 and Hudson is 1 1/2. We're ready for spring and summer...warmer weather to play outside would be great. Or I guess a really good snow to keep us home a couple days would be fine, too, for sledding and building a snowman. Do you want to build a snowman? We have 3 kids here that really would enjoy that.
We went this past weekend to the Springer Farm and met their baby lambs. The kids loved it! The ewes were baa-ing like crazy and Hudson was baulking back. He even gave one of the babies a kiss. He tried to rub the dirty nose of one of the week old babies. He was so intrigued, just petting them and sitting right in the middle of the barn watching them and pointing. Karson was loving on them and taking good care of them as sweet as she always is. Jaxson was excited to see them, but was more intrigued with the chickens and chasing them around. He will be ready to head out there in the Spring when the lambs get released from the barn and he can run and chase to his heart's content.
Jaxson in 1st grade is great. He loves it. He gets nothing but praise and encouragement for his behavior and school work. He brings home sweet notes from his classmates...mostly the girls...he is sweet, he's a helper, he's compassionate and kind. He is loving at home with his brother and sister. We are working through giving him space when he gets home because he needs it, to do whatever he wants, usually legos or watching a show. He is helpful with his siblings, but they do smother him and he just needs his space. :)
Karson loves her babies. She is the most compassionate and sweetest little girl. She adores her brothers, too, and is always ready to take care of them. Her favorite movies are Tangled, Brave and Frozen. She loves to sing, "Everybody praise the Lord" and any of her Disney movie songs. I mentioned she smothers Jaxson, she also smothers Hudson, too. You'd think she would get tired of Hudson day after day, but she can't get enough of him. 
Hudson is obsessed with shooting basketballs, dribbling balls, throwing balls, kicking balls. He loves playing catch. He adores his siblings and wants to be just like them. He watches them and does everything they do. Karson is good at getting him in trouble because she leads him and then disappears. :)
