Luke lost his first tooth!

The past couple weeks Luke has been saying that one of his teeth was loose, and it finally came out this week! Luke was super-excited, especially when we told him the tooth fairy would give him a dollar for his tooth!

Luke wrote out this all by himself!

On Saturday we went to the zoo to kick off Jacy's birthday celebrations. Jacy was really excited about the Kimodo Dragons, and even wanted to go see them again! When we went to pick out her zoo birthday present she picked out a stuffed Kimodo Dragon and a pair of binoculars (just like Luke's). Jejema and Jejebapa felt bad for Luke so they decided to get him some Legos.

Look at that face! Looks like someone is ready to be a 3 year old

Luke had a blast watching the meerkats run back and forth and jump

For St. Patrick's Day the kids built their leprechaun traps! Luke built the lower part and then they added Jacy's (the top kleenex box with stickers) at the end. They even had an elaborate plan for what would happen to the leprechaun when it entered the trap. Alas, the leprechaun escaped again, but thankfully left a scavenger hunt for the kids to follow to reach the candy!

They found the treasure!

March 14th we had a pi day celebration! We had pizza for dinner and cherry pie for dessert! Luke looks very excited to learn about the ratio of the circumference to the radius of a circle!

Luke and Jacy stories:
•Luke asked how much longer until Jejema and Jejebapa would be here on Friday, and Marinda said about 40 minutes. So Luke said "okay, I'll go wait for them!" and proceeded to go wait outside while quietly playing by himself until they came.
•Jacy had a dentist's appointment last week and her teeth are great! The dentist even specifically mentioned how shiny her back teeth were. Yup, Jacy did a great job taking care of her teeth!
•It's been a little warm, like in the 50's, and apparently too much for Luke. One day after leaving Fred Meyer he had his coat on and siad "Mom, I don't think I can handle this hot weather"
•Luke was feeling sad that Jejema and Jejebapa can't see forever. They explained to him that Jejebapa needed to work, and Luke replied "you can work at Microsoft. My dad works at Microsoft!" Then they told him that he does something different for work, and Luke said "you can work from home. I'll clean up part of my room and you can work from there!"
•Later, Luke was saying that they should move to Seattle and live here. They said they could live in their own house, and Luke replied that they could come over for a sleepover!
•Luke has been excited to show off all of the places he goes and his navigation skills. He and Jacy are in Jejema and Jejebapa's car and Luke has been telling them where to go. He even got upset when they were following us instead of relying on his directions. "Why are you following them! I know how to get to the church. We should be in the front!"
•Jacy knows who Jejema is and how to say her name, but she still sometimes doesn't say her name for some reason. We were getting ready to say prayer, but Jejema was in the kitchen. Amit asked if everyone was here, and Jacy pointed to the kitchen. Amit asked "who's there?" and Jacy said "her!" Finally, she ran over and yelled "Jejema! Time for prayer!"

This is the design for Jacy's cake! 

Luke and Jacy had a great time enjoying the sunshine at the park

Luke was really sweet and kept calling for Jacy to come play with her
