Ok, so with the other update....
Logan has begun another round of soccer and is doing well. I will post pictures of him scoring his many goals soon. He is awaiting T-ball and swimming lessons to start which will be happening in the near future. He is advancing to the next class in karate, which I am super stoked about so I can go watch him. Dustin reports on his progress and Logan learning the new katas. He is a gold belt with three red stripes only three more strips and he will get to move up to the next belt (whatever color that will be-I can't keep up with the ranks). He would like to join scouts so we are going to an information meeting on Monday. I am excited about this due to my dear brothers earning their Eagle award. Logan is reading really well and has read enough books to earn a brink for the Humpty Dumpty wall that will be in their new classroom. He is planning his 6th birthday and is ready to be big.
Ethan is completely potty trained. He has done well with it and we have finally moved the changing table out of his little room so he can have a toy box up there instead. He is also planning his birthday and can't decide on what he would like to have (Tinkerbell or Thomas the Train-I know, I know). He is not in the activites like Logan, but states that he can't wait to be able to go to school and play soccer. It will just be a matter of time before he is able to and then it will be fun trying to juggle two sets of activities.
I am finishing up with school and have 6 wks left. Still no job, but still looking. Everything is going great with the rest and I just can't wait to be done. What will I ever do with my time?
Dustin is preparing for knee surgery on the 7th. It should go well with the surgery being a little procedure. He is on day shift with weekends off for the next couple of months. This is going to be a change for us. Please pray that we don't kill each other.
So there is our little update. I promise that I will post pictures soon.

Our new names....
Well, another month has almost past and I still have not updated with any good pictures. I know that I will have some soon to post after my little trips that I get to take....so hold on and be patient. Here is an update of the last three weeks.....Ethan's name is no longer Ethan it is Batman Hibbard. This is hilarious to watch him tell others. He will correct them if he hears Ethan and usually is pretty accepting of not being called Batman right away. Logan's name has changed also, but he is unsure of what he would like to be called and man it is pretty confusing to keep up with him. Here are some of his favorites..Ben 10, Wolverine, Shark Boy, X-Man, and well there are more, but can't think of them right now. He is a little bit more forgiving when you don't call him by one of his new names and even tells us that we can still call him Logan. I am grateful for that since that is what we named him. I am not mom or Kindra is it Storm and Ethan again corrects others if they call me otherwise. Dustin is no longer dad or Dustin it is Hank. So welcome to our new family name and I am sure if you would like to have a name change my boys would be happy to help you with that.

My, My where has the last month gone?
Well, a lot has been going on in the past month.....
Ethan's head is healing quite well. When you ask how it is feeling he states "Better" and "It is almost gone." He will then go into the story of how he got it making sure that you know that he fell down on the basket, hitting the coffee table, and crying a lot. He is talking more where you can understand what he is saying and is constantly asking when he will get to go to school like Logan. Every day we drop Logan off at school, Ethan says "I want to go to school." I remind him that he can when he is 3 and that seems to satisfy him for that moment. He is counting to 10 hitting all the numbers in order and starts on up to 15, but misses a few. He sings his ABC's and does ok if you can understand him. He knows colors and all his Thomas the Train trains. He is doing well with potty training and staying dry day and night. We do have accidents (intentional) when he is too lazy to go to the bathroom saying the entire time afterwards "I go potty and poop in the toliet not on the floor or in my pants." The child has it, but has the Hibbard defiance (us Petersons are definately not that way...we do EVERYTHING that we are told!).
Logan is doing well. Reading up a storm so he can earn his free ticket to Silverwood (an amusement park with rollercoasters and water rides). I am so amazed at how much he is reading on his own. AMAZING. He is getting more independent and does many things on his own. His recent thing is to get his own breakfast pouring it all himself. He does a good job and if he does spill he cleans it up. I am so proud of him. He has enlightened us quite a bit over the past month with my favorite in saying that I am retired. I LOVE this (there is a cute story so if you want to know ask and I'll tell). He is waiting to turn 6 and says that he is now six (even though his birthday is not until April 26). One of his friends at school said that he was six a little before his birthday so Logan thinks that he needs to tell everyone that he is 6 because his friend is 6.
I am doing ok with classes. They are moving right along and will be done in about 8 wks. I can't wait. I just hope I can get it all done before it is due.
Dustin is doing well. He tested for K9 and did not get the position so he has been a little bummed. He does get to take advantage of some other training opportunities so we will see how that goes.
Other than that we are doing well. I will post some pictures of the boys soon.
