Lilian Graduates from Head Start

Lilian graduated from Head Start this week. Lilian attended Head Start this past year every Tuesday thru Friday from 12-4. She got on the bus at 11:15 daily and got off the bus at 4:20 daily. Some days were very long and tiring for her. But most days she just LOVED it! She grew so much this past year. Lilian knows her letters and their sounds, she can count and write her first and last name. Lilian loves learning and creating. She loves to work on projects using her imagination. Her favorite thing to do is make books. I am so proud of Lilian. She is sad to leave Teacher Carly, who she just adored. We are hoping that she gets a wonderful teacher for Kindergarten.


 

Proud Brother who went every day to put Lilian on the bus. Rain or shine, we were out there!

Happy Mother's Day to ME!!!

Daddy asked Connor if they should get Mommy some flowers for Mother's Day. Connor said, "umm.. ya probably roses!!" Daddy said lets just get some flowers. Connor insisted that mommy would like these roses. I feel so special! What a sweet little boy!

Daddy and Son Campout!

This weekend Jaron and Connor went on the Father son campout that our ward goes on every year. They had a blast!! They had beautiful weather!

 

They launched bottle rockets!!!

Connor is such a boy!! I am sure Daddy took this picture just for me :)

They went on a hike over a mile long, Connor did the whole thing by himself. He would not let Daddy help!

 

They even found a little frog. How cute!

 

They cant wait to go next year!! I told them to take Lilian next time, sometime this year. Makenzie and mommy will stay home :) Babies are not fun camping, we know from experience.

Makenzie Xela-6 months

I have a picture of Lilian wearing the same dress as Makenzie when she was about 6 months. My sister Rebecca took that one for me. Maybe she has the copies? I have no digital ones to be found! I would love to have these pictures developed and put up in our home!! Too cute!

More Happenings at the Sorens

Jaron had the wonderful opportunity to go to San Diego, CA for a Metagenics Seminar from 4/18/12-4/22/12. He did a little sight seeing in between his classes. He was able to enjoy the San Diego Temple for me. It has been my dream to go there and see this beautiful Temple. Someday. Jaron learned so much information. He missed his family though and was excited to come home.
 

 

 

 

 

I turned 27 on 4/9/12. I enjoyed the day with my kids! My friend Heather Shannon and Erica Johnston took me and my kids out to lunch. We enjoyed yummy food and company. My mom and dad sent me flowers to brighten my day!! I received many letters and a special package from Gayle. She sent the kids love and some yellow socks for me!! Jaron let me go shopping a few days before by myself. What a treat! Well I took Lilian, but she had a lot of fun. I found two sweaters for $4 each and a cute pair of pants for $7. What a deal! Do you spy my other present in the back of the picture?  Jaron upgraded my kitchen aid for me. I LOVE it!

 

 

The Easter Bunny Came to our home. The kids loved it. Our friend Suzie and her husband came to surprise the kids. It was really neat.. Lily  put two and two together this year and asked if the easter bunny was real. We were honest with her and told her the truth. She said thanks for telling me the truth!! Our little girl is growing up too fast!

 

 

 

I love this picture, it looks like my kids are flying!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Happenings at the Sorens

On Saturday April 28, 2012 Our family went to the YMCA for a day of fun!! The YMCA had tons of events for families to participate in for free. Our kids enjoyed face painting, rock climbing, bouncy house, bug house building, swimming and much more!! It was a day filled of fun for our family. We ended the day shopping at Wal-Mart for herbs to plant and ingredients to make sushi rolls. It was a great day!!

 

 

 

 

 

We had fun dying eggs this year for Easter!! We tend to miss family a ton during events like this though : ( 

  

Here are some pictures of Lilian during her surgury. She did so well. We are glad that the hernia was found and we were able to get it removed!!!

 

 

Our Kids were able to enjoy FREE swim lessons all week during spring break. The YMCA offered swim lessons sponsered by the Rotary Club. The kids loved it!! Daddy even got to go watch on Wednesday. Makenzie did great. She slept most the time or enjoyed watching all of the excitement. She has done so well on all of our outings.

 

 

 

Here are some great family photos that we took!!
