Rockets, Dinner by Nate, and Movie Night

Nate received this rocket for Christmas, and was ecstatic when it finally became warm enough to launch it. So April and Nate just put it together, and we all put it to the test. It's propelled by a baking powder and vinegar reaction, which should provide a good boost to about 80 feet. We've only reached about 15 feet, so we'll keep trying. But Nate and his buddy had lots of fun anyway!

Nate loves to help with dinner. This night April let Nate make the eggs all by himself. He cracked the eggs, stirred the eggs, and served the eggs. Go Nate!


Every now and then Nate and Elin have a movie and popcorn night. It's usually when I've been gone all day and April is at her wit's end. The kids love it, April gets a break, and everyone's happy!
Like brother like sister. I'm not sure what their hands are doing in their mouths, but it must be fairly important since they're doing it together. I was careful not to disturb them.
