Fun Extras

Quite a few fun things have happened lately that I have not posted about.

Babies
We had a chance to meet the last two baby boys recently. (We had already met Ephraim) We really enjoyed getting to meet both Garrett and James. Sara looked huge next to them and we enjoyed snuggling tiny ones again.

We also got to see Aysha. She seems to be a bit more on par with Sara's growth. Aren't they so cute and funny?!

Landscaping
Jason and I are so burned out on home improvements that we opted to pay a little more and have our yard put in for us. Consequently, it's really coming along. And, it brings fun things like a cool tractor for Laura, Lily and Micah to watch!
Sprinklers are in; grading is done; trees are in - which I love; and we get seed on Tuesday. Woo hoo! Not too much longer living in mud! Now, if only we could have some more warm weather...can you believe that it SNOWED today?!

Preschool
Yes, despite my lack of posting about it, I am still doing preschool for the girls. We a working our way through the lessons in this book. And it is making a huge difference on Laura's reading skills. She is really doing great on that front. We also do some fun crafts. Here is Laura painting at preschool.

Mischief
Sara loves being able to scoot around on all the tile. She really loves being able to get into cupboards. Look at what she found today!
