Wow! It's been over a month since I last posted. Life's been crazy over the past few weeks, to the point where sometimes it's hard to breathe. Things are changing at the Clark house, and for now, I don't really want to talk about it. So, in doing the mature thing, I'm going to ignore it...because if I say it out loud, that means it's true, and I'm not ready to admit it. So, I'll do some catching up...
Addie started dance. I couldn't believe it. That girl has NO INTEREST in anything girlie, but thanks to "Despicable Me" she wanted to dance. She's been to two classes and really likes it.

Addie also moved to her big-girl-bed. Yes, she's almost 3 and was still in a crib. However, I had no problem leaving her there. And then she and I went to Dallas over spring break and the pack n' play was too short for her to fully lay down in, so I figure if Graco is telling me she's too big to be in a crib, it must be true. She loves her new bed, but still says she's a baby. See, she knows if she's a big girl, she has to go on the potty, so she's quick to remind us all that she's still a baby.
When I was pregnant I searched long and hard for a crib that converted to a full size bed, but wouldn't look like it used to be a crib. I'm really happy with it and her brother and sister are both jealous that she's got the biggest bed in the house. Don't they realize that the youngest will always get the better end of the deal? They may as well start learning now...

Delaney took 2nd overall in another gymnastics meet! And at this meet, her team took 1st place overall. What a fun experience for her. There's another meet in a week and I'm still prepping her that this won't happen every time. Work hard, have fun, and be happy with how you've done!


Jackson worked hard all month on his Illinois State Fair project. He wrote a report, put together a presentation, and built a Lego model; topic being Nauvoo. We didn't have a chance to get down there during the month, so thanks to our Bishop's fantastic photography skills, he had a really great presentation. All the 4th graders in his school displayed their projects in the gym and all the parents got to come see. No one had ever heard of Nauvoo so it was a great opportunity for others to find out about something they didn't know even existed so close by!
