Time for a Kid Update.....and hopefully a fixed figure skating video.....

Haven't done a kid update in awhile, so here goes. Also tried to fix the video issue we were having with Abby's figure skating...I've posted new videos, hopefully they work. ARRRGGG not fixed....working on it!!!


Abby
* Is very into books that are part of a series. She is just finishing up the Witch & Wizard series by James Patterson.  She still loves the wizard books :-)
* Loves playing the Sax and is excited to continue playing next year.
* Has been working hard at her skating. She has another competition coming up in June that she is excited about.
* Is having fun playing garage hockey with Mike and Griff....I'm wondering if we may have to sign her up for hockey in the fall!  Oh, and she shoots lefty......
* Has popcorn EVERY SINGLE NIGHT before bed!






Hannah
* Is taking after Abby and is reading up a storm. She loves books about animals.
* Is a huge animal lover. She doesn't mind going to Griff's baseball games b/c there are always tons of dogs there she can pet and play with.
* Is doing great in her swim class. I am hoping that she will want to sign up for the swim team in August. She's not much of a joiner, so we'll see.
* Is still our artist. She makes a picture or drawing for someone every day.
* Eats peppers - red, yellow, orange - all day long. She takes them as her snack at school. I'm sure her desk mates love that smell!
* Both she and Griff love the World Record Books. They take them out of the library all the time and read us random facts.


Griffin
* Has "talk time" with Mike every night. When I'm putting Hannah to bed, he sneaks downstairs to chat with Mike on the couch. Not sure what they talk about....it's a secret :-) He does it every night, without fail.
* LOVES hockey....ice hockey, garage hockey, street hockey.  He just wants to play hockey!
* Is doing baseball right now....not sure how he feels about it yet. Not his favorite sport, I can tell.  But Mike's coaching, so he plays it!
* Would watch the Blackhawks playing hockey on  youtube all day long if I let him, but curiously.......
* will not watch them playing live hockey on tv. He gets too nervous!
