We've had a lot of firsts lately. Luke had his first Blue and Gold Banquet for Cub Scouts. He officially became a Tiger Cub and received the mark of the tiger on his cheek (you can see the orange marks if you look closely!) and a tiger symbol (the headband). It was fun to watch and be a part of it.
Drew & Lauren have been working on potty-training. It's proved to be much more difficult than it was with the older two kids. We're just going to keep plugging away and hope we're fully trained sooner rather than later.:)
Reagan had her first dance show. She participated in Pella Christian High School's dance team clinic last Saturday. They practiced during the morning and then got to perform at the show that evening. She said she was a little nervous to dance in front of all of those people, but I think she did a great job and she had a fun time.
We're getting ready for spring around here, although snow is falling right now! Next week is Spring Break and the kids are ready for some time off school. I think it will make the rest of the school year fly by!
