Luke Discovered His Tongue

I had to post this because he had us all laughing so hard. I thought anyone who decides to check us out might get a kick out of it too.

Grace's First Day of Kindergarten

Ready for school. She got all dressed up in her new outfit and literally bounced out to the car. Once we got there she couldn't stop smiling. She told me last night not to embarass her (already!). So I tried really hard and she was the one that gave me a kiss before we left. I can't believe she is so big. I was proud of myself, only a few tears on the way home. I couldn't be too sad because she was so happy.

Need a Smile?

This will make smile unless you have a heart of stone. Grace was playing with Luke and the rest is self-explanatory.

New Year

Well, I know I am halfway through January already but I thought I should post something for the new year. We are doing well. Luke is growing like a weed. We went to his four month check up last week and he is 13 pounds and 23 1/2 inches. He finally made the chart for his growth curve and is in the eighth percentile. Yeah.

Grace had her five year old check up and Kindergarten shots. She didn't like the shots so much but was really brave. (I promised her a milkshake if she would behave.) She is also growing. I can't seem to keep her filled up. She is always telling me she is hungry and starving. She is 43 1/2 inches and 45 pounds. She can't wait to go to school next year.

Kaitlyn hasn't had her check up yet. We go next month on her birthday. She is kind of having a rough time right now. She wants to be big like Grace and thinks she can and should get to do everything her big sister does. I have decided with my two girls three is much worse than two. It is hard for me because she is usually my sweet cuddler, but when she is mad you can't talk her out of it. I hope it is just a phase because I miss my happy girl. Her smile will just light up a room.

Well, Sam is really busy. The first of the year is so full of activities for the school that he is gone usually 4 nights a week. (Miss him!) He works so hard. I am so grateful for him. He is such a wonderful husband and father.

Well I will post some pictures and say see you next time.
