Bragging time...

I would like a minute to brag about my William. I feel so blessed that Heavenly Father sent him to Jeremiah and me.
This week he has been taking is NWEA testing at school. As his test scores have been coming home we have been reminded what a gifted,  smart boy we have.
On Math he scored 250 we thought hey that's okay. We later found out that puts our 5th grader at a 10th grade level.
I can't remember what his Reading score was but the teacher wrote Advance Proficient on the paper. He was pretty proud of that.
Lastly on his Language.... last year he scored 204. He had a typical score(amout of growth that most kids achieve) of 210 and a stretch goal(the score the teacher encourage them to reach)  of 214. Well he blew our socks off with a 227.
I love my little smarty pants...

5 months old

Our sweet Gwen is growing too quick. Gwen rolls from stomach to back and every now and then from back to stomach. Her fisrt tooth just broke through with #2 on its way (life has not been fun).  Gwen has been enjoying oatmeal cereal and has had a taste of applesauce. She can sit up by herself for a short time but it doesn't last long. Gwen gets loved up by all the family but she lights up when she sees her mommy. We love you little Gwenny

Books, books, glorious BOOKS

My kids take after the great Muldowney family and LOVE to read. They are like their grandpa and take their books everywhere in case they have a chance to read. We had to start taking all their books out of their rooms at night because we found out Micheal had been staying up late enjoying his love for books.

I like to look for rainbows whenever there is rain... and ponder all the beauty of the earth washed clean again.

Most beautiful rainbow I have ever seen. I wish the pictures did it justice.

Williams first band concert

This isn't a great picture but William did great playing his trumpet. He was mad because I dint sign the paper(which I never saw) to let him do a solo. He sure loves his music

Free bowling

Because of the D.A.R.E. Program we were able to take the kids bowling for free. We just let the kids bowl and it took us 2hrs. For 1 gamethey loved it.

Wiliam turns 11

Can you believe my baby is 11. In one year he will be passing the sacrament.
William is such a fun loving boy. He loves that he was born on April Fools day. He truely believes it was his first great joke. He loves making up games with his brothers, cooing at his baby sister and palying games with Mom and Dad. William is a math whiz and we couldn't be more proud ov our big boy William.
