Standing Up

R. pulled herself up. Everyday she is becoming more brave.

Playing in the Sun

We are on spring break here and finally the SUN decided to peek through the clouds. The temperature was in the 50's, which seems warm after the winter we've had here. Just a week ago, snow was covering the grass and now, a little green grass is popping up. The kids have been outside enjoying the fresh air and playing with their friends outside. This sure makes us anxious for summer vacation.

For C.'s 5th birthday last Sept., she received roller blades. She had difficulties skating when she first got them, but today she skated really well.

Ready to go. Good thing pads are being worn.

This is so much fun.


Her face says it all about learning to roller blade.

Dinner

With the weather being warmer, we were able to grill chicken today. R. likes baked chicken but today was her first with grilled chicken. Chicken and mashed potatoes are one of her favorite meals. Slowly but surely, she is liking table foods.

Counting Down

Raye and Dan are expecting their little one in less than 6 weeks. What an exciting time for them both. Mary and I hosted a baby shower this past weekend. The kids are anxious for their new baby cousin to arrive. It will be a surprise to whether the baby will be a boy or girl.

9 months

Today marks RM's 9 month birthday. No, she isn't crawling but has the stance to begin. However, she moves backwards just a little. She now says 'mama' more consistently.

CB Town

Saturday night was a lot of fun for Phil and I. We were out celebrating my brother's 40th birthday. My sister-in-law surprised my brother with a roadtrip with a bunch of his friends to CB. Grandma came up to watch the kids so that Phil and I could go. While we were in CB, we were able to see some good friends. Lots of laughs and good times were shared this night.



Meeting Elvis was a surprise.
