I know, I've been a blog slacker! We have been so busy. I have been working part time at Erin's school with afterschool reading and teaching ESL to parents. I love it! It's an adjustment since I have been a stay at home for a very long time and I have never been able to leave Eli with a babysitter because of anxiety attachments. Luckily, we have friends from our ward who are so willing and offer to take care of him while I am at work. Rico is interning in SLC at the mayor's office and loves it with a passion. Erin is enrolled in the afterschool program I am working at and she enjoys it. She's in ballroom dancing, choir, arts & crafts, and many more fun things. We have the best dance team in the valley. They compete and always come out first place!!! She will have he first performance in May is so excited. Eli is incredibly smart and very talkative. We have started him on Hooked on Phonics and he recognizes about 2/3 of the alphabets. He's like a sponge. Our Valentine's was nice and relaxing. Erin, Eli, and I made tons of cookies for our favorite teachers at Erin's school. I got a huge box of chocolate truffles and a dozen of roses. We also went to Winco the day after Valentine's and bought tons of candies that were on sale and shared some with our friends! E-Pa sent the kids stuffed animals that sings, dances, and laugh. Erin got a bumble bee and Eli got a a dog that makes a creepy laugh. Here's a video!
