A new cousin

From Aunt Beth:

Isaac Andrew Wilson born Thursday, April 26, 2012 at 1:39 pm, 6 lb 7 oz, 20 in.

We're both doing well and Andy and I are so happy to have our little boy! Even if he was 3 weeks early.

We'll try to get more pictures out in the next few days. But enjoy these and you can also see baby's first photo-shoot at http://www.bellababyphotography.com/. Password 0426isaacwilson

A First Snow

We are always so excited for the first snow to fall and stick that we can actually play in.  A day in January we had some snow like that.  It wasn't much, and didn't stick around long, but we played in it for awhile.

 

Experiments in Color

For Christmas Rubie received from Alec and Maomi a Science Experiment kit.  The kit is some very easy experiments with colors.  Making colors from crystals.  Making colored crystals.  And mixing colors.

 

Eric turns 5

It seems like 5 is one of those benchmark ages.  Turning 5 takes a child from the toddler to the kid stage.  Eric will have lots of exciting things to look forward to this coming year.  He already has grown so much.  I have been so proud of the effort he puts into preschool and karate.  He is making the most of preschool.  He is really coming far in his ability to read and write.  He has even started doing basic math.  He loves all his subjects of science, art, kitchen, history/spanish, music and language learning.  He makes friends easily and really enjoys having friends over and also going to their houses to play.  He has made new friends easily in our new ward and we regularly get together with a few of them.  

For Eric's birthday party we let him invite some friends to play with him at Kangaroo Zoo.  He invited Noah and Max (who were here for the holidays), sadly the Tulett's were not, Nixon--from school, and C.J.--from Karate. They all had such a great time playing hard and eating cake.

On Eric's birthday Scott took the day off and the four of us went to Boondocks together.  Eric had a intensely fun birthday celebration.

He also enjoyed a family dinner and a Ben 10 Puzzle from Lloyd which he loved putting together with him.
