Actually, right after this picture, Karyn started to cry. I think she had a lot of emotion going through her. When we do it again, we will tell them before going. The surprise was fun, but I think the anticipation is better and Karyn can prepare herself. She is a home body and was a little disappointed we were not home. The girls thought we were driving home and looking forward to their own beds and home. Instead we headed in the opposite direction. She felt like we shouldn't be there. We talked about this and said we could leave and that it was okay to feel this way and we needed to listen and follow our feelings/the spirit. After talking, she decided she was home sick and having separation anxiety. We had reserved 2 rooms. One room for the girls and Mariel and one room for Brian, Ewan and I. She was not comfortable or happy about being in different rooms. She said the first night was kind of hard but the second night was "awesome."
we told the kids we

Updates on the Kiddos
Karyn has moved up in gymnastics already. The teacher said that Karyn has an awareness of her body and what she is capable of doing more than most girls her age. Her teacher said she will ask "What is the technique?" The teacher will show her and Karyn will do it. I guess a lot of girls will take weeks to do what Karyn can do in one night. I am so happy for her. Karyn loves it and we can tell is very pleased with her own abilities. She was doing push ups and sit ups during FHE tonight to help strengthen her body. Hahaha, I love it! She is wonderful.
Evelyn had her first violin recital on Saturday and did great! She enjoys playing the violin and works hard for the 5 minutes she practices :) We are working on her endurance! She loves to show Brian her accomplishments and is very excited to start using the bow.
Evelyn loves playing make believe and is very good at it. Often, when all the kids are playing, it is Evelyn who is directing and telling everyone what to say...and everyone follows! This is with Karyn and her friends! Very cute and funny. She will also direct Brian and I in what to say...and we have to say it perfectly. She is very patient with us and will correct us if we don't say it right. She is amazing.
Ewan has had an explosion of vocabulary this last few weeks. He is jabbering ALL the time and it actually sounds like he is saying something or that what he is saying should be real words. He probably is really speaking, we just don't understand everything quite yet. He has mastered "NO" and Karny (Karyn). He will say Gammy, Gamma, Tommy, guk(cup), mow(more), and other random words. The weird thing is, is that he will say a lot of words when he is listening to me talk to the girls. He will repeat words with such clarity that it is shocking, although he won't really use them later without hearing it again.
Ewan went to nursery for the first time this last Sunday. He only screamed for about 30 minutes and then was fine! I guess he was standing at the door where I had gone out and was knocking and crying there for a while. So sad. They finally convinced him to go look at a truck. He loves my hair like Karyn did. Although, he will rub it in his ear (hahaha) and on his hand instead of on his lips like Karyn would. He gives some of the best hugs and kisses. He is such a lovie.
I love my kids so much. We are sooo blessed to have such great children. I love love love them!
