Currently Untitled

I sorely need to update this blog, but I want to post little tidbits on here more often so here is a little taste of what is to come :).

Sometimes I am a little concerned about Jayda's self motivation in some aspects of her life (ie homework, chores, and lately even gymnastics), but I often catch her looking through the Friend magazine and looking up scriptures and listening to primary music all on her own. So I guess she is self motivated where it counts right now in her life (I mean, when you really think about it, what 8 year old is self motivated in chores, right?)

Jayda is an outgoing 6 year old, able to befriend all types of personalities. Our big first grader loves reading and writing stories. She wants to be an author and a librarian when she grows up. She also loves singing and performing--especially when it is one of the songs she wrote. She is a soccer player, a gymnast, a dancer, and a swimmer. She still loves Superman and tells us she wants to marry him someday (he is a common character in many of the stories that she writes). She loves her new baby sister, Jasmyn, and has been such a wonderful helper with her and Tai.

Tai is the middle child in our family.
One outstanding feature that Tai has is his unnaturally long eyelashes. At the hospital, Tai was famous. Nurses would come in to Jen's hospital room and instead of using her name, she would be referred to as the mother of the long-lashed baby. He is now an energetic 2 year old and a total mama's boy. You will hardly see him without a toy car/motorcycle/train in his hand. Often you will catch him belting out a rendition of Queens "We will, we will...ROCK YOU" or "I like to move it, move it" from Madagascar. On the more sensitive side, he is always the first to offer to say a family prayer at the dinner table or before bed.
