I've been to this point several times over the last couple of weeks and have just been stumped as to what to write about...so much is going on and I don't know where to start! So here is a listing by person of what is going on in our lives! Pictures and more stories to come later on!
Kate: Words, words, words! She is picking up new words left and right it seems...I discovered tonight that she can say the word "towel"...who knew? Not I! She loves the ABC song and will be playing and randomly break out into song! :) Very cute. She is changing so quickly that I'm not sure when she turned into such a little lady sometimes!
New funny quirk: She is definitely Daniel's sister...she has started fussing and crying at us (even to the point of yelling at times) when she can't see her feet! When she was wearing jeans that were too long the other day she was constantly yelling at Greg until he finally figured it out! Since then, she has learned the word "feet" and will yell that at you! Tonight she is not a happy camper because we put long sleeved, footed pajamas on her...it took her a while to realize it but once she did there was an all out yelling match over the fact that her feet were covered!!!!! She seems to be over it now after Greg explained that it was ok and her feet were still there! Crazy lady!
Daniel: LOVES school! We were talking tonight about vacations for next year and Daniel asked if we could go to his school...silly boy! :) He has learned how to spell his first name and loves to tell anyone who will ask! He can't wait until he is old enough to play soccer and t-ball so that he can be just like his big brother! We seem to have gotten over our aversion to most chocolate...except M&M's...maybe that will never go away...who knows!
We did find out recently that he is allergic to milk and so we now have 3 types of milk in our fridge...regular for Greg, Chris and I; soy for Daniel (he hated the taste of rice milk!); and rice milk for Kate (since she's allergic to milk and soy)...lordy...interesting. I've decided I should make a chart of my children and their allergies so that everyone knows who is allergic to what! Geesh! However, taking him off milk seems to have fixed his belly problems that he was having earlier. They still pop up every once and a while but it's not 3 1/2 weeks long like last time!
Chris: This boy has become the busiest person in the family! He is now involved in Boy Scouts Monday night, Midi for Kids Tuesday after school and soccer Tuesday night, Operation JOY at church Wednesday after school and soccer games on Saturday morning! Busy kiddo! He is loving every minutes of it!!!!!! He has his first full Pack Meeting Monday night after his make-up soccer game and he cannot WAIT!
School is going well for him...he loves his teacher and his class...he has homework almost every night which he usually sits down and works on without any problems! His new favorite series of book are the Magic Treehouse books....LOVES them!
Greg and I: Still plugging away at the everyday jobs around the house...enjoying every moment we have with our kiddos...still working hard at what we do everyday. Sometimes the house seems very overwhelming and daunting...especially when the kids are having a rough evening but when we get to curl up on the couch and snuggle them it is worth every single thing! :) We are very blessed and lucky to be where we are with what we have and we wouldn't change a thing!
So that is us in a nutshell lately! I do have some recent pictures that I will post soon!
Until next time....
