John ran in the Boosterthon Fun Run to raise money for his school. It was freezing that morning, but he was determined not to wear anything over his Boosterthon shirt. They marked off each lap on the shirt as he ran. He was also determined that the rest of us be there at 8:30for the run. It was NOT easy, but we all had a great time and thawed out eventually. I didn't expect much out of John since running isn't really his thing. He usually says he's tired after a lap or two around the cul-de-sac, BUT he finished all 35 laps, which was over 2 miles! I was so proud of him! And he had a great time. I thought he looked so cute with his tiger hat and mustache gloves.
Eve ready for dance class
We got this bow for St. Patrick's Day, and she let me put her hair in a bun. I thought it looked so pretty.
We pulled out an old hat that Papa gave John. Poor Jake doesn't have the hair or skin tone for the sun. Fortunately the hat didn't seem to bother him, and it's pretty darn cute!
Just a cute chunky picture
Ellie actually let me put her hair up the other day. She usually makes a bold refusal. When she and Eve realized their hair was the same they startede jumping around and dancing. I hope they always enjoy each other that much.
I never knew teeth pulling was a spectator sport. John's top front right tooth has been loose for quite a while. He was trying hard to pull it one day and the girls loved watching. It was all I could do to take a picture without getting the heeby jeeby's. I joked with him that I wanted it to come out March 16th so we could see who got to it first, the tooth fairy or the leprechauns. It's still there, so we'll have to save that question for another year.
