Luca's 1st Break up

So as I had mentioned in previous posts, Luca told us he had a girlfriend, Addy.  The other day he told me that "they broke up." I asked him to give me the details.  He said that her friend Anna Rose came up to him and said "You're not Addie's boyfriend anymore."  So he went straight to the source and went to Addie and said "Are you my girlfriend?" She said, well your my friend that's a boy.  Luca blew it off and said OK.  But really his feelings were hurt.  He told me "it's personal, I don't want to talk about it."  It was sweet and sad, his first heartbreak.  :(

Soccer

Olivia had her best soccer game this season.  This was her third game.  She had 3 goals and 1 assist.  She played really well.  Last week, I believe she got one goal and they played in the rain!  It's a great team and they've won all their games so far and tied one game against the other St. Andrew team that they practice with.  She's very fast and is always the first one to get to the ball. She hustles and understands the game really well.  She knows how to pass and dribble the ball and Corey is soo impressed that she can kick the ball with both left and right leg.  She even scored one of her goals using her left leg which her right is dominant, that's pretty good!  We are soo proud of our little athlete. 

I've wanted a little herb garden and Corey made me one and Olivia has helped the entire way from building it to planting. She's such a good little worker. :)

In between riding his roller blades, Luca wanted to help.

Yay!  Garden is complete, we have basil, parsley, cilantro and some banana peppers.  Hoping to make some pesto with the basil and parsely and we eat a lot of guacamole so we can use the cilantro for that and I love roasted banana peppers in my eggs in the morning.  :)

Olivia said to me, take a picture of me blowing my nose! Ok! ;)

Luca Andres Giovanna!

This morning while the kids were downstairs and I was upstairs I heard a crash.  The next thing I hear is Olivia say to Luca "Luca Andres Giovanna!"  I was laughing soo hard.  Whenever I get upset I'll use the kids middle names which is Luca Joseph Andres and Olivia Giovanna Andres.  I thought it was hilarious that she called Luca Luca Andres Giovanna! She's too funny.

PINK 5 days in a ROW!!

At school they have a clip up behavior chart.  This week, Luca was on PINK 5 days in a row.  He's actually on PINK a lot, but he's never been 5 days in a row which is excellent.  Yesterday he said to us "If I get on pink tomorrow that will be 5 days in a row."  I told him if he got on pink I'd take him to Greaters for Ice Cream.  When I picked him up today he said "We get to go to Greaters today!" He was soo excited.
