A picture of Mommy (me) by Xavier, drawn June 2014
A signed picture titled, "The Savior," by Xavier.  It's a picture of Jesus.  Xavier says you can tell because he is so glowing and bright, drawn June 2014
Xavier has picked up on a love for drawing.  It's fun to see how many pictures he can color yellow (his hands-down favorite color) and how happily he draws all of his subjects.  I love my kids' art.  :)

Funny Xavier Quote:


While watching a Peg Plus Cat episode promoting the idea that sorting (i.e. cleaning) one's room is lots of fun, Xavier (age 4) says under his breath: 

"Sorting is dumb.  I hate sorting.  I sort things under my bed."

It's true.  He sorts (throws everything on the floor) his toys under his bed whenever we ask him to clean his room.  Gotta love an honest kid.  :D

Xavier is getting down to work on this year's science fair project.  He's testing to see which oil is best for popping popcorn.  It's important science. John and Diana are enjoying playtime inside boxes, because boxes are the best, of course! John is starting to have fun playdates with friends from the neighborhood.  It's so fun to find good friends who share a love in all things Paw Patrol!
