Up and Running

Well, I suppose "up and walking" is a more accurate title. That's right, our little Miss Wonderpants has started WALKING! Just before Christmas she took her first few steps (she really wanted Mommy) and she has worked up to 7 steps as of this evening. Man, do we have amazing kids or what? This was the day she took her first steps...in fact, it was right after Ali took this picture. She is so proud of herself! The cat is very, very afraid!

We got a lot of snow yesterday. 6 whole inches. Jack was in heaven. Ali was cold. (this isn't a picture of yesterday, this was the day Jack beheaded his snowman. Since I didn't have a picture of yesterday, you'll have to make do.


Our other exciting point of the last few weeks is Strep Throat. I thought it was just a cold, but it turns out that we all had strep. Tyler and I watched a lot of movies and tried to not neglect our poor children (Jack didn't have strep, and Sheridan was acting pretty normally as well). We both got our first booty shots in years as a fast treatment. If you've gotten sick from us, you can blame it on me, Tyler.

Yay! Sheridan is walking! I can't wait to come over and have her walk to me. :)

Sorry you have strep throat. Do you need anything? I think we have some soup or something....

Oh I'm so proud of your little walker. I wish I could see her toddling around. Hey so we unpacked some Robert Jordan books today (books 2-5) and Merrick thinks they're yours... let me know.

Here comes trouble! It seems like it doesn't take them long to move from walking to a flat out run. Sorry about the sickness. We too have been living in Virus-ville for the past month or so. Hopefully it will all subside soon.

We pretty much stayed on campus and went to the PCC.
Spend time on the beach and went to Turtle Bay. A cool
private beach is right across from Chevron (the gas
station and McDonald's)...called pounders. What are
you doing with the kiddos? Anything we can help with?
Let us know.

Miss you guys and we need to come see your place!!
Sorry we have been such slackers...

Have fun in Hawaii!! BABY #3? KIDDING!! KIDDING!!!

Ha! Booty shots. Those were the days when we were kids, huh . . . the dreaded visits to the doctor and the embarrassing revealing of the booty . . . I thought those days were over! They really gave you your shots there?!? Sweet! That's one way to keep yourselves young!
