30-4

So this is a crazy month of birthdays since we have 2 about a week apart.  But we made it through successfully!  Japheth had a "How to Train Your Dragon" party and loved it.  We didn't have a pinata this year, but we played Dragon Trainer Says, Musical Dragons and Pin the Head on the Dragon.  It was a lot of fun.  Japheth is now 4 years old, and I can't believe how big he's getting.  He is 35 lbs 12 ounces and 39 1/2 inches.  He continues to get smarter every day.  He reads probably at a first grade level and is now learning a little math and money (pennies and nickles, etc).  He writes pretty well, and loves to write and receive notes.  He is also becoming a pro at riding his trike.

For Douglas' birthday he had a Halo party.  11 of his friends over for a 3 TV/3 Xbox extravaganza.  We didn't get to bed until about 2:30am and had a 6 am wake-up call from Japheth, but it was a blast!  I think we had a Halo hangover for 2 days.  He is now the big 3-0! He's doing well with all of his schoolwork and learning a lot for the M-CAT. He juggles everything pretty well and we're always so proud of all his hard work.
