Jacob

 Jacob says his feet has stopped growing at a size 11.5/12. He decided that now that his feet are done growing, he should have expensive shoes. So.... at physical therapy I noticed the bottom of his shoes were wore out and told him I would buy him some new ones. He immediately went into shoe shopping mode, texting his friend for advice on what shoes to buy. I told him hold up! I still am not going to buy him 130.00-dollar shoes. We decided I would cover around 70.00 of the shoes but he would have to chip in the rest of the balance.

After much consideration, and texting, from his friend, Jacob decided on some Nike shoes. Now the shoes have a fancy name and number, but I don't remember. What I do remember is that they are white. It took several days of waiting for us to take him to the mall to get them, but Dad finally took him on Saturday morning. Jacob came back super proud and happy that he got "his shoes." Not only are they super cool and white but they give him an inch and half of more height! 

More importantly his feet are now supported more. 

Amelia

 

Amelia had a fun school project where she created a cereal box themed book report. She did a great job, as you can see. I know keep it with the other cereal boxes in the pantry, just for fun. I pull it out from time to time to look at it.

 Amelia and I had a fun time going to the Family Expo. We have gone in the past as a family but since the boys are too old for it now, I thought it was the perfect opportunity to hang out with Amelia. 

We walked around to look at all the booths. Amelia spun every prize wheel we could find, and she collected all the freebie candy, pens, and miscellaneous she could see. She also signed up for a free dance class in March, just to try it. We got a free sample snow cone. We also got our picture taken in front of a pirate themed backdrop, as you can see to the right. 

It defiantly wasn't the biggest Family Expo we have been too, but it was fun none the less. After the Expo I took Amelia to get lunch and a treat at DQ.
