Growing up too quickly!

Everyone tells me they grow up too quickly and it really is true.

This week, I was surprised to find out that Carter is able to open the house doors on his own and saw him go down the slide by himself, without tipping over once(He got ever braver each time. First time on his tummy, second on his butt and third time, going head first!). He's also figured out how to dissemble and reassemble his Lego Lightening McQueen toy. Way to go son!

Katie has really gotten into her gymnastics class. We were not entirely sure if she would stick with going twice a week, 2 hours at a time. But after her first class, she told me "Daddy, when I turn 5 I want to go to gymnastics class even longer". She's now also sleeping on her own in her own room in her own bed. Not nary a complaint, negotiation, or cry. That's my girl!

Every night should be like this

On most nights, its rush rush rush to get the kids to bed. Katie's got to be at her school by 8:25 in the morning. I feel so bad for them, I remember back when we were kids things were so much more laid back (maybe I'm remembering wrong). That's why I look forward to the weekends so that we have a lot more time with them.

But every now and then we kind of let them loose a little bit

Mathmatical Genius?

While we were eating dinner, Maddie asked us how much older she is than Katie. So we said, you are six and Katie is four so six minus four is...and out of the blue Katie blurts out "TWO"

I'm glad she can do her math...not like her old man

Way up here

I love watching cars!!

Mommy,I'm ready

For number 3!!!

Feeling Better

I'm feeling much better now

Got sick

Past couple of days have been rough, especially on Jenny. It started with Katie, then went to Jenny, then now Carter.

Hopefully everyone will feel much better soon - I think a day of opening lots of presents will go a long way in that category.

Merry Christmas!
