April misc.

Sara and Sophia playing the "game"
We found Brandon's old Leapster for her so she can play her own "game" anytime she wants.  She mostly just turns in on and off.

Sophia and I went to McDonald's one day and the first thing she does is dump out all the fries.  Then she puts her hand over them and says "mine".

Sophia loves reading books!

Pinewood Derby


 Our first time making a Pinewood Derby car was a complete disaster!  Ben and I are not competitive people, so Brandon had complete control and painted and did the whole thing by himself.  The only thing I did was buy the kit and start the screws.  


He did an x-box 360 car.



It weighed in at exactly 5 ounces, but there must have been something wrong with the wheels because the car couldn't even cross the finish line.  So sad!  Maybe next year Brandon can work with someone else and make a car that can actually compete. 

Sara's haircut


Sara has been asking me for about a month now if she can get her hair cut.  One day after school I took both her and Brandon (two birds- one stone).  She told me she wanted to cut it short and I never thought she would actually do it.  It looks so cute on her and she LOVES it!
