January

Thought I'd post some photos of what we've been up to so far in this new year...

Seb received the "soaring higher" award at school for all his hard work.

We've been praying daily for the safe return of St. Bowe Bergdahl from Hailey, Idaho. He was captured June 30th, 2009 in Afghanistan. The boys have stickers & bracelets and are always praying for him and telling their friends about him to spread the news and support for his community.

Lucas is doing a little homeschooling since his preschool closed at the beginning of the month. We're enjoying it so far and he will begin his second year of preschool again next fall.

Brandon is growing every day. He's crawling (more like doing the worm) and sitting up with support, and of course protesting every spoonful of cereal I feed him.

We celebrated his turning 6 months last week and the boys were very excited to enjoy some chocolate cake for their baby brother. He didn't really know what to think of them singing to him. haha

This is his "you want me to eat what"? expression. He's so fun.

 

I don't have any pictures of Shan but he lost another tooth which the tooth fairy brought him $.50. The tooth was pretty small but it was the cleanest tooth we'd ever seen! And he got a new pet for the house. This is "Tony" (as in Stark, as in Ironman). That's why we had to find a red betta. And of course he had to buy a "no fishing" sign so Tony would feel comfortable in his tank. He's a pretty social fish and swims back and forth when we're at the kitchen sink but does not like to be touched as much as our first two betta fish did.
