Chef John


John made his delicious chicken noodle soup for us for dinner- Yum! YUM! Here he is at home in the kitchen.

Jump, Ashley Jump!




Ashley joined the Jump Rope club at school - and she is awesome!

On Saturday, Ashley went to Sarah Price’s birthday party and made a pillow case.
Ashley loves her new little sister Natalie.

Valentine for Mom

Ethan walked out of Kindergarten yesterday dressed as a big Valentine for Mom. This week he played a new Wii video game – Strikers. At the Doctors, he was in the 60% percentile in size for his age.

She's a Character...


Katie found a new way to get Mommie's attention - pouring a glass of cold water on Natalie!

Katie was immunized this week and didn’t even cry. She had her eye on the shiny token the nurse would give her afterward to get a bouncy ball from the maching in the Doctor's office.

She is in the 50% percentile for her size.

Go Matthew!





Matthew was the first one in his school class to pass the test for his multiplication tables up to 12. Go Matthew! For Valentines Day, Matthew was assigned to make a simple machine to deliver valentines. A couple of paper towel tubes, kitchen sponges, duct tape, tubing, and a few grunts and mumblings from his assisting parents went into this wheel and axle device.



Matthew is practicing Allegro and Antantino for the upcoming violin festival.

Natalie Smiles


On Thursday, Natalie started smiling at us! She has really changed in the past two months. The smile now makes the sleepless nights a little easier.

Whew! Made it on.

I am excited to start blogging. The decision was brought on by me trying to post a comment on Brian and Deb's page, and finding out that I couldn't. Now we will have a way of staying in touch with everyone. Yeah!
