Growing up

We are constantly being made aware of how quickly our kids are growing up, however Landon about made our jaws hit the floor when he explained pixels to us the other day. Landon to us, "Hey, mom you know that flower that is your screen saver on the computer?" Me, "Uh, yes." Landon, "Well that picture is actually just a bunch of pixels put together. And pixels are these little squares of color. Isn't that cool?"

And his reading has been shocking us as well. He can read paragraphs now. He will read out of chapter books and he doesn't sound words out anymore, he just says them. It is crazy, I will have to post a video of him reading a paragraph out of one of his books!



And our litte Liam has been saying things like, "Yes, that is interesting to me." and "Stop distracting me!" And he can write his name all by himself! His preschool teacher asked me what we did to get him to communicate so clearly...I said well we read to him but the rest is just the way God made him! And hearing big brother has helped out too!

We are so proud of our little boys! I plan to post about the girls soon!!
