The biggest news is the start of the new school year. Andrew started 2nd grade in Ms. Faykosh's class. She is a brand new teacher at Ridgewood this year, but so far things seem to be going pretty well. Andrew was kind of upset because he didn't get a postcard early telling him which class he would be in, but he finally got it the day of Open House. At Open House, he met Ms. Faykosh and also got to pick out where he wanted to sit ... the back! He didn't really recognize many names - there is only one kid from his class last year. Sometimes this makes him sad, but we told him, this way he gets to know more kids than anyone else because it is a whole other class of kids to meet.
His class seems to be going well. Andrew's daily schedule is morning work, reading (8-10:15), writing (10:15-10:55), lunch (10:55-11:25), resources (11:35-12:05), recess (12:05-12:35), math (12:35-1:35), SS/Science (1:35-2:00) and then he comes home.
During reading time, they just started groups. Andrew's reading level is an L, which is what he ended with, though he has very high fluency. I think he must not be answering questions very carefully because he read probably at least 50-100 books over the summer ... and he reads high level books with good comprehension. Oh, well - that's for the schools to teach ... I just teach to read and love of reading. During independent reading time, he gets Geronimo Stilton books from the library, a new one every day or two. He is doing well in his classes. Math still seems pretty easy, but again, Andrew isn't very careful when he does the worksheets. His handwritten is usually pretty poor, unless we remind him and then his handwriting is excellent. I guess working on it over the summer was worth it - now, if we could just work on his motivation! I know he has been studying the human body in science - I guess they just had a test about the ear, but he never brings anything home, so it's hard to say. Andrew has been doing awesome on his spelling tests.
Andrew brought home an award yesterday for being the character kid for his class this month. He was pretty excited and got a certificate. His class has a behavior scale each day - from red (bad), orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and pink. Andrew is usually blue or purple and occasionally pink. One day he was even pink +1, which I guess is pretty great. He always has very good behavior at school.
We are still doing the walking school bus to and from school. I usually walk home with the kids on Monday and Friday and the other days, the other parents do it so I can just stay home. On Thursdays, it is bike to school day - Andrew didn't do it last year, but is doing it this year. He got a cool new bike lock (with the lock being a 4 letter word). He really likes doing it and was super upset the two weeks we didn't get to do it (sleeping in, one day and raining the other). They meet at the corner around 7:20 (school starts at 7:55) and he usually gets home about 2:25 (school ends at 2:10). He likes talking to friends to and from the way to school.
This year, we have been spending lots of time playing with friends after school. Our neighbors are all home after school this year instead of being in after school, so he usually plays with them from 4:00ish until dinner. They ride bikes and play tag, jump on the neighbor's trampoline, play sports, play on the swing set and just have a pretty good time. It is so nice! I have let the boys be more independent, so they can play without me having to supervise. They can also ride bikes to a friend's house with prior permission and can ride up and down a couple streets close to the house.
Homework has been much better this year than last. There is a nightly math worksheet, nightly spelling (either ABC order, writing 3x each, or writing sentences with the words), and then reading for 20 minutes - but they can read whatever they want, so we usually just count Andrew reading scriptures with dad and the reading he does before he goes to sleep. With friends to play with, I can usually motivate Andrew to get his homework done before he goes to play, so it is not a hassle at all this year. Yay!
Andrew finally lost a tooth for real. He has several lose teeth and he finally pulled one out. The tooth fairy came (although he is pretty sure it is just us) and gave him $1. He is always complaining about how he can't eat properly because his teeth are so loose ... silly boy.
Katsu and Andrew are trying to read the Book of Mormon together before his birthday. They take turns reading and try to read a chapter a day, though it is tough to keep on track. Andrew does a really great job reading.
Andrew is still reading a ton, though maybe not as much since school started. He LOVES the "I survived" books and has read all the ones I can find at the library, plus bought a couple at the book fair. He read James and the Giant Peach and is reading the Half Magic book series. He read a graphic novel of the Little Prince. He is reading Mouse the Motorcycle and Hardy Boys books and other things.
Fun Things August & September:
- Birthday parties galore! Andrew went to a Lego birthday party for a neighbor, a swimming party for a friend from church, a Laser tag party for a neighbor, a birthday party at the house for me, a water outside party for another friend from church - plus we had a blessing party for Noah, a couple parties for Katsu's work and a party with all the new people from church at our house. Andrew LOVED the laser tag party. He made the whole-place record for the laser maze when he was there. He keeps talking about how he wants to have a party there ...
- Open House at Ridgewood. We made sure to tell the librarian to let Andrew check out hard books.
- Parade for the Watermelon Festival. Andrew did a great job getting ltos of candy.
- Starting school.
- Making some new friends and having lots of play dates with them.
- Going to soccer games to watch Seth. But mostly playing lots of soccer with Dad and Seth. He always said he didn't want to play this season ... until it was too late to sign up. He will probably play soccer again in the spring and basketball soon.
- Title 1 Curriculum Night at the school. We got to sit in both the classrooms and learn what they were up to for the year - but the real reason the boys wanted to go was to get books at the book fair!
- Pizza from pizza hut with friends for school spirit night.
- Too many donuts from Talk Like a Pirate Day.
- Pot Luck at church.
- Fishing with worms at River Park North. The boys have been dying to go fishing. And they realized that fishing ... is slow going. I think they thought we would bring home lots of fresh fish to eat. It was a little disappointing.

Noah is 2 months old!
A little late, but today is Noah's well-child visit, so we can all learn how big he is. Noah weighed 14 lbs and 8 oz (97 percentile), 23 1/4 inches (50 percentile) and head circumference 15 3/4 inches (75 percentile). He did great - he screamed when he got his shots, but calmed down pretty quickly.
Noah has grown up a lot this month. He isn't a little newborn anymore and looks and acts more like a baby. First, sleep - Noah is doing really well. We moved him out of our room and upstairs into his crib. I think the crib is way more comfortable and I figured we would all sleep better if we weren't listening to each other. We got a better monitor (yay!), so after the first night, I wasn't worried about not hearing him. So, Noah has basically been sleeping through the night. I will enjoy it as long as it lasts. He goes to sleep usually between 8 and 9 (sometimes earlier) and then will sleep until usually 5 or 6 when I feed him and then he usually sleeps until almost 8:30. Or at least, that is his routine for the last week or so. It's awesome!!! He sleeps in a swaddle, though sometimes he gets his arms out, but it doesn't seem to affect him too much. I think when he is done with a swaddle, he will probably suck his thumb. He loves to suck on his thumb and fingers - I think he will be a thumb sucker, but we will see. Naps ... I can see that maybe he will have a routine, soon, but it is kind of all over the place. As long as he sleeps at night - that is all I care about. Days we are home, he will tend to take a long nap sometime, usually afternoon. But days we are out and about (which with 3 other kids is most of them), he takes many short naps.
Noah eats well. I gave up on feeding him on both sides, so he just takes one breast per feeding. He eats every 2-4 hours depending on the time (except at night when he eats hardly at all). He is a pretty fast nurser - usually done in about 10 minutes, which is nice. He takes one bottle a week on Friday morning when I am at work. He seems to like it fine and it's nice to be able to have a little bit of flexibility in the future if we need it. Not really interest in a pacified though. He seems to be gaining weight really well and has quite a lot of fat rolls.
Noah started smiling right around 6 weeks and he smiles a lot. He is very talkative and loves to stand or sit on your lap and talk to you. He will talk to for a really long time before he gets bored. I don't remember the other boys having quite so many conversations. He mostly just is cooing, though. He has started to laugh a little bit, too, which is cute. Katsu is always trying to get him to laugh.
Noah is no big fan of tummy time. We do it a little bit, but honestly not as much as we should. I do lay him on his belly when I am carrying him or one my lap and he likes that. If he is fussy, it will put him to sleep.
Noah mostly likes to be held or to sit up and look at what's going on around him. He likes to stand up a lot when he is on my lap and is pretty strong at holding his body up. He has very good head control most of the time. We just borrowed an activity mat and a swing from a friend. He figured out how to kick the toy pretty quickly and enjoys doing that. He likes to look at the mobile on the swing - I am not sure yet how much he actually likes the swinging part.
Noah loves to look at ceiling fans and lights. Loves them. That and the family are his true loves.
Noah had his baby blessing on September 7. None of our extended family could come, but we invited some neighbors and one of them came. It was a busy blessing day, with three babies being blessed. One was so fussy they couldn't finish and had to do it later. Noah wore the same outfit that Logan and Andrew wore and it just barely fit. I couldn't do the snap in the back because it was too tight and Noah was not fond of that at all. Katsu had to come down and get Noah (he was conducting the meeting that day since he's in the bishopric). In the circle was the rest of the bishopric and our friend Jorge Arrigada. Katsu blessed him to be loving, compassionate, service-oriented and respectful. He blessed him to seek understand. He blessed him to go on a mission and have a future family. He also blessed him with a love of his ancestors and a real interest in family history work. It was a beautiful blessing. The stake president's wife really liked how Katsu committed us as his parents to love and care for him.
We didn't want the day to feel too anti-climatic, so we had a small party after church with some friends from church (and also neighbors, but none of them were able to come). We just had sandwiches and chips and dessert and fruit. It was nice and low key and a great way to celebrate baby Noah.

Logan in August and September 2014
The first half of August, we mostly stayed at home and recuperated from having a new baby. Logan is pretty good with the baby. He likes to talk to Noah and always says "Yeah, baby" over and over and over. Sometimes he will say something else, but not usually. He went through a little phase where he would say "What's your name? Noah. Yes" - this was in response to me telling him he could call the baby Noah instead of baby. Oh, well - I tried. He will tell other people that the baby's name is Noah. He doesn't seem to be jealous ... he is really good at playing by himself and even once the boys went to school, he didn't seem lonely or bored. He does make sure that he gets time playing and reading with me, though. You have to watch him though, because he loves to put things on Noah or try to stick things in his mouth. He is always putting blankets or toys or books right on top of Noah or sticking his fingers or little toys in his mouth. Babies are just so fascinating!
By the second half of August, we finally started getting out of the house - we went to the library several times, even for a story time once with the cat in the hat. He made an appearance and Logan had absolutely no interest in meeting him. In fact, he spent the whole story time sitting next to me and not by the other boys and then when I asked if he wanted to meet him, Logan said "I do not like that man". We also went shoe shopping and to Target a couple times which is a little bit of a disaster with four boys ... we are slowly getting used to it. Logan likes sitting next to Noah in the car.
There were several birthday parties this month. Logan wasn't invited to all of them, so that was kind of hard for him, but he would always talk about Sawyer's party and how he got to go to that one. Then, this week, he got an invitation to a little girl's birthday party. Later, the other boys were invited to to play with older siblings, but Logan doesn't want them to go. He will yell about how HE was invited to this party. Rebecca invited HIM. It is pretty funny. We went to the party last weekend, just me and him and Noah, and he wasn't too interested in the party - just giving her the present. That is all he talked about the whole time and the whole week before. He did a little cursory coloring and ate a bit of cake, but the only interested part to him was giving her the present and getting a gift bag and then going home (well, actually to another party ...).
We thought he was too little for a Lego party, but he went with Katsu to drop off the boys and ended up staying. I was surprised that Katsu just dropped him off ... our neighbor said that he did seem a little lonely in the middle, but he held hands with her and her husband and after a while Logan seemed just fine again. So, he did his first drop off party!
Logan started preschool at the beginning of September. He actually had sounded excited about it this summer. Once Andrew and Seth started school, Logan was disappointed that he hadn't started preschool, too. He is in a 3 day class - I feel like it's a bit much for a 2 year old, but I needed something for Friday since that is my longer day teaching and the only option was 3 day. I thought about just getting a babysitter, but Logan had been doing pretty well in his Mom's Day Out and I really wanted to keep the good momentum going ... he tends to be pretty clingy about us leaving, and I didn't want to go backward. Plus, I was worried he would be bored at home with Andrew and Seth gone till 2 every day (I shouldn't have worried about that - he loves it because no one takes the toys he is playing with or tries to tell him how to play!).
Anyway, the day before preschool started there was a meet the teacher. Logan came in and did pretty well - but then we had to leave and attend a meeting. I didn't know about that part - and we hadn't prepped him - so he was very sad and cried the whole time we were gone. Not in hysterics and trying to run and get us, but just crying because he was sad. I asked him later if he played while we were gone and he said "No, I just cried", very matter-of-factly. So, I was a little nervous ... but we really talked preschool up and talked about how it's normal to be sad and cry ... but he could also be brave, if we wanted. Well, he did just fine with his class and has been great every day since. He always asks each morning if it is a preschool day - he wants to go all the time. We haven't met his teacher yet - she had been out of town with a new grandbaby, but Logan seems to like the assistant teacher. He is always proud to show me the artwork he has made in class. He tells me about the stories they have read and what toys he plays with. He tells me he doesn't play with the other kids - they play by themselves. But, I bet sooner or later he will start telling me about the other kids. I was surprised he knew the names of all the kids at the Mother's Day Out last year.
Well, I'm updating this now, at the end of September, and Logan is still loving preschool. He asks if he gets to go almost every day. I guess yesterday, because it was raining, they couldn't play outside and he wasn't too happy about that. Two boys ran into each other in the gym and I don't know if it was traumatic or something, but Logan got upset and said he was ready to go home and was crying. And he told me a little bit about it this afternoon, but he said that the day was just too long, but that he loved preschool. And that he wanted to go back in the afternoon. He loves Ms. Traci, his teacher. We were talking about boys and girls (they were doing it at school) and I asked if Ms. Traci was a boy or a girl, and he says "She is a teacher." And I said, yes, and she's a girl - and he thought that was the funniest thing ever. She can't be a girl because she is a teacher.
Logan says the funniest things. When I picked him up from class this week, I asked him to tell me about preschool. He said "I not tell you about preschool. First, you tell me about work." So, I told him a little bit about my class that morning. Then he said, "Okay, now I tell you about preschool." and went on to tell me about his day. He really talks a lot and quite well for his age now. It is always very interesting to hear the funny things he will tell me.
Logan is finally very proficient at pedaling his tricycle. He likes to ride it every day and is jealous I won't let him cross the street and ride it up and down the sidewalk (there is only sidewalk on one side of the street here). He is pretty athletic - he loves to play soccer with Katsu and Seth and Andrew. He is sad that he isn't old enough to play on a soccer team - we tried to convince him he has to be potty trained first ... we'll see how that works. Of course, the rules of the game pretty much elude him, but he does seem to understand goals. Logan loves to play outside. To draw with chalk, to throw basketballs, to play in the sand box, to swing. To run around.
Logan plays all the same shooting and army games as his brothers, of course. He also loves to be very physical - wrestling, etc. More so than the other boys, I think. He loves to play with train tracks - he was excited when our neighbors gave us their old train table. He also likes to race cars. He likes to tinker around with Legos and Trio and try to build some things. He likes to do play-doh, but has a short attention span with them. He loves to read - he likes Franklin and Pete the Cat and whatever we get from the library.
Logan is probably the neatest of the children, even though he is still in the age where he makes lots of messes. He is usually good about throwing away trash or taking his dishes and putting them away when we remind him. He likes to help cook and help do chores.
Logan has gotten into a stage where he is getting a little more defiant and also asks "why" all the time. Although usually it's "but why". I am not sure where this came from - none of the other boys really did it. It's pretty cute, though. I can see he is trying to figure everything out and where the boundaries are.
Fun Things These Months
- Lots of birthday parties
- Playing at the pool

- Starting preschool
- Birthday party for Mom.
- Dinner after Noah's baby blessing.
