Misc. Spring Happenings

We have been having a very low key, sort of, spring!  It has been filled with soccer, ballet, new babies and ANIMALS!

We are still waiting on our house to be finished too.  And while we are on schedule for June 15th, our rental house has been sold and we are forced to move twice in 6 weeks.  The only good news is that our new little mother-in-law that we are renting in the interim is on a farm.  The is the most amazing news for three little ones and a dad that are part of our family.  There are over 20 horses (one of which is expecting a colt any day now), goats (including 5 babies, 3 of which have been born in the three days we've lived there), chickens, a dozen or so dogs and cows.  It's awesome out there!

Sophie has learned to ride a bike without training wheels!

Brady is as crazy as ever.

And Grace is taking up a collection of ladybugs.  Not to mention her pupae she brought home from school.  They have been learning the life cycle of the meal worm.  Joy for me (NOT) but Grace LOVES LOVES LOVES bugs.

 Here is our adopted pet...Munchie!  He will almost come in the house if we open the door.  He gets handfuls of rice chex.

 Exploring the farm

Petting an adorable baby goat that was only hours old

 Grace petting one of the dozen or so dogs that live and run around on the farm.

 Brady has been known to play dress up and and then promptly fall asleep in random positions.  This kid plays hard and crashes hard.  I honestly don't know how he's even sleeping in that position...oh well.  Mr. Incredible is pretty cute though!

Another day of dress up..glasses from Grandma and his Italian dictionary from Dad. Seriously hilarious!

Hope everyone else is having a great spring!

Grace's 1st Grade Music Concert

Grace had her 1st Grade music a concert in April.  They have spent the last school year learning a variety of folk songs.  They even learned some square dances and hang gestures to go along with them.

Grace's favorite song was called "Old Dan Tucker."

Old Dan Tucker was a fine old man
He washed his face in the frying pan
He combed his hair with a wagon wheel
And died of the toothache in his heel

Get out the way for old Dan Tucker
He's too late to git his supper
Supper's over and dishes washed
Nothing left but a piece of squash

Old Dan Tucker went to town
Riding a mule and leading a hound
Hound barked and mule jumped
Threw old Dan right over a stump

Get out the way for old Dan Tucker
He's too late to git his supper
Supper's over and dishes washed
Nothing left but a piece of squash

 Grace and her good friend Jayden

Loved every minute of the singing!  Grace was so cute!

Chloe at 1 Month

I can't believe how fast this little one is growing!

She is so cute.  She is sleeping in our room at night and after her feeding I can't help but snuggle extra long with her.  She's my last baby and I'm enjoying every second of it!

She is a great little eater and sleeps for 5-6 hours in the night.  She's not too sure about these three other little crazies that run around the house...but she'll figure it out sooner or later.

She loves to be held and can fall asleep anywhere!

She is starting to smile too.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter!

The 4 Clegg kids!

 Cute Brady posing for the camera. (He gets it from his sisters!)

Baby Chloe looking as cute as ever!

 Adorable Sophie

 Sweet Grace

Striking a pose! (This wasn't prompted by Garrett or I either.  They just wanted to look sassy all on their own.)

 The loot left by the Easter Bunny included sidewalk chalk, bubbles, a new Easter outfit and candy, candy candy!

Garrett LOVES LOVES LOVES to hide eggs for the kids.  So they got even MORE candy.  The kids LOVED every minute of the hunt!

Hope everyone had a great Easter.  We missed seeing our family, but are so grateful for SKYPE!!!

The Riptide Eagles

Grace played spring soccer this year and LOVED it!  She had a bunch of kids from her class on her team too.  We had a busy schedule which three days of the week with practice and games.  They play three on three with a goalie.  Grace even got a turn to be the goalie each game!  Super fun!
