School Break

It has been real nice having this long break off from school. We haven't done much but have enjoyed lounging around the house, playing with no where we need to be or rush off to. The kids have been having fun playing with all their Christmas toys, making forts, playing war, reading and just relaxing.

Mitchell has become very conscience lately with trying to be "cool". Lately when we go out to the store, he will do his hair or wears his hoodie, has his new wallet (and chain that attaches to his pants) and his sunglasses on. And while he waits for me to shop he leans back against something with his arms folded and one foot up against the wall behind him. Mr Joe Cool. He is so different than Paige. Half the time Paige leaves the house with food all over her face, hair not combed and a dirty shirt on. I have to send her back into the house to change. She really just doesn't notice or care what she looks like half the time. (unless she is getting dressed up to go somewhere nice, then she will care and put effort into it). It is so fun to see their different personalities.

Paige has dubbed herself a fish geek. She spent her Christmas money on fish, fish books, fish breeders, fish food, etc. She is very excited to try and start to breed her fish. It is all she talks about lately. Paige is someone who loves to have a hobby and can really focus in and learn as much as she can about the subject. She is so fun to be around.
