Well, nothing much going on here, unless you want to talk about the 12 soccer games, (and as many practices), an orchestra assembly and concert, fathers and sons camp out, violin dress rehearsal and recital, piano, Gifted and Talented student projects and parent night, scouts, Daddy/daughter night at the school, the Wellsville mile, class puppet shows and plays at school and other big school projects for Britton. Other than that this May has been rather slow.
At his 4 mo. appt Jameson tipped the scales at 16 lbs 12 oz. This last week he had a few firsts to add to his repertoire- he rolled from back to front and sat up by himself for the first time.
He is still dutiful in his job to listen to Korinne read to him each day.
Parent night for the SEM (gifted and talented) students was this past Friday night. Britton had to do a big project about a person who has made a significant contribution to society and he selected John Brown, Jr. one of the original 28 Navajo Code Talkers in WWII. He had to dress up like his person and the recite a bio-riddle he had written about him to every person that walked by his display during Parent night.
Jenna is also a SEM student and made a podcast about how roller coasters work with fellow SEM students from her grade (there are 6 in all) and they showed it to the parents. Both of these were going on simultaneously but since we were the only family in the District that had SEM students in both the 3rd and 4th grades they didn't feel the need to plan around us. We just had to run around a little bit. It was all held at the same school which made it much easier. They select about 5 or 6 students in each grade to be in the SEM program (it stands for School Enrichment Model) each year. Everything they do is in addition to all of their other school work but both Britton and Jenna have really enjoyed being part of the program. Parent night brings all of the SEM students from each elementary school in the district together.
Jenna had a violin and piano recital last night and did a great job. She is really enjoying her music lessons.
We have been busy and have managed to stay out of trouble. Always the sign of a successful month!

Goodness, just look at that baby deliciousness. Sadie and I are admiring those pics of happy Jameson.
That is a busy month. Lots of fun stuff that your kids are involved in. Have you been crocheting hats at all of these events
Wow! How fun catching up. Jenna, Britton, & Korinne are all doing great things because their parents are dedicated to giving them lots of opportunities to shine. Way to go! Cute, happy Jameson will fit right in.
