Week in Review

Britton loves to learn about reptiles and other animals. Every week he gets several books from the library about various animals and that is what he reads during the week. This last week was "Shark Week" on the Discovery Channel and Adam showed Britton a part of one of the shows about the scientists studying shark behavior and Britton LOVED it. He used any and all of his allotted TV time watching shows about people studying sharks. He has now declared that he either wants to be a animal scientist or a zookeeper when he grows up. (I'm just thankful his interest in animals hasn't lead to an interest in having a pet!) Oh, and ever since his tornado dream the other night we still have our nightly talk about how a tornado is NOT going to come during the night, etc. Poor kid, tornadoes just really freak him out. I guess it is a good thing that we don't live in the Midwest.

Korinne is our little independent woman. She dressed herself the other day and came out looking like this:

She put her clothes over her swimming suit, had the shirt on backwards, inside out, and off one shoulder. The shorts were twisted but her shoes were just right! Hey, everyone has to start somewhere, I guess. She was pretty proud of herself for just getting the job done, and frankly, I was too.

It's one of Jenna's favorite times of the year. . .school shopping time. Jenna is one girl who LOVES clothes. She wasn't even 2 years old when I started noticing that clothes were just as important to her as toys. Fortunately for us she doesn't care if the clothes are new or just new to her. :-) I got her a couple pair of jeans this last week for school and for a few hours after seeing them she kept coming to me and hugging me and saying, "Thank you soooo much Mom, I just love them!" I'm sure she will keep things interesting in years to come.
