January

Katelyn had her 6th birthday this month. She loved waking up to a room full of balloons, opening all of her presents, picking out fun things for her birthday meals, and having cake and ice cream with grandparents. She is such a good, kind, happy girl and we are so glad that she is part of our family. It's hard to believe it's been six years since she was born. She sure is growing up!


Just so you all know, Jace is still not potty trained, and may never be. He can do it, but won't. We have even taken away all treats until he stays dry for a full day. It's been almost two weeks and he does not care. Any suggestions are welcome.

This picture has nothing to do with potty training, but shows what happens when Jace eats rice. His chair and the floor had ten times as much rice on them. He is a happy, fun little boy, but a challenge in almost every way. We are going to have so many stories to tell about him when he grows up. There is always something going on with this kid.

Gage is learning how to dress himself. Here is one attempt...pants and shirt on legs. He was pretty proud. He is talking like crazy now and has two volumes...loud and louder. I'm afraid he is becoming more and more like his brother every day, just more accident prone. We sure love these kids!
