It's been a while.....

So this is going to be a long post sorry.... Where has the time gone, finally I am looking outside at a beautiful spring day! We have been staying busy with soccer, dance and singing at this house. However I have no pictures to post of those activities, because I either forget the camera or I am home taking care of the others while dad takes the kiddos around! Spencer is really looking forward to the end of school! He did really well this year in school and loves his teacher. I do not have any pictures of him around because he is gone most of the day. I think I need to get better at the picture thing!!!! Ryan has really done well in preschool this year and he is always telling me how he got to help the teacher! He is really ready for kindergarten! He is a good big brother and he is by far Emily's favorite. He helps me most of the time with her. He loves to play his soccer and last night scored 11 goals- so he says! I was not there to witness it because of this lovely cold weather! Aubrey is ready to go to preschool!!!! She loves her dance class and will be performing at the end of June. If you were to come over to the house at anytime of day you would find her dressed in either or all of the above.... swimming suit, tights ballet clothes or just a tank top and underwear!!!! It is a battle that is sometimes not worth fighting! The picture is her ready to go play in the rain!!? Emily has been changing the most!!! Wow what a little intervention with the doctors can do! Emily got her tubes in and her adenoids out! She can breath and hear in one small operation! She no long has a wet shirt, and she does not snort! She starting crawling everywhere this month and loves to come find me! However I have to make sure to vacuum everyday because along the way she always finds something to go into her mouth! She loves to laugh and play. She eats everything except baby food! We all love her so much and I love watching her change from day to day. She is as big as all of her friends that are months older than her, but she can also do just as much as them. Nothing seems to slow her down. The random pictures are Emily with her hair in a pony!!!! Yep she has enough to put up there!!!! And it is still red! Eating a nutragrain bar! The one of Ryan and Emily I think proves that they do look alike! (that would mean a little mansell is in there somewhere)! We took a quick picture of the grandkids for grandma Dallas. The age difference between Mollie and Emily is only 5 months! Aubrey dressed like a lion! She was in a play that the young men and women did for the stake, she represented the lions in the lion den!! She loved it!
