no good excuse

Athought i have plenty of excuses for not posting a blog i really don't have any that are good =) wow since january so much has happened.....where to start lissy started walking on feb 1st and hasn't stopped, she's a pro at running and is soooooo sassy...not sure who she takes after=) she's still very small at 21 lbs. but she is growing more and more lengthwise and she is super smart =) she's a regular little monkey climbing and hanging on things, she now sleeps in her very own big girl bed in the kids room, which i wasn't ready for=( she just decided one day that she wanted to sleep there and hasn't looked back. Josh is the fastest runner in his class =) he is sooooo proud of that=) and he is loving 1st grade, he is super excited for his birthday which is coming up next friday and he won't let me forget about it. He loves reading and seems like a natural when it comes to spelling. Mary is loving 3rd grade and she too is also loving reading, we got the percy jackson series from a book order and she is loving reading it=)she is awesome at math and science and has impressed the teacher with knowing almost all of her multiplication tables(i think that's what they're called). She was baptized at the end of May and mom and dad were able to make it down which was so much fun=) she loves reading the scriptures and is working hard on her articels of faith. I got a new calling in march, R.S. Secretary i love my calling it has helped me get out and meet new people and it is a lot of fun=) i got my tonsils out in August and mom came out and helped me with the kids for almost 2 weeks =) i appreciate her help more then she'll ever know=) david is doing good, still working at sears as a delivery man, he's constantly looking for a new job but unfortunatly like before , everyone wants 3 or more years experience. Well i have a monster headache so hopefully i post more later=)

we're here

ok,ok, i know i've been a slaker lately. Well so much has been going on and at the same time i don't really have much to say=) We had an awesome Christmas, the family got a Wii and the kids have had so much fun playing it =)New Years was kind of sucky, we just let the kids play the Wii till they fell asleep. Felicity is starting to TRY to walk, she has really good balance and can stand in the middle of a room forever but after 2 steps she just drops to her knees=( her 2 top teeth are finally coming in, in fact today one finally broke through, you can see the other one it just won't break through=( I got a new sewing machine!!!!!! which i love and have used almost as much as my old one =) it's amazing how fast and quiet this new machine is =) I am also teaching myself how to knit =) My friend Susan knitted an adorable hat for felicity and i think that it's so awesome looking that i had to try it, i am almost done knitting a scarf for Joshua, i have to say knitting is much easier and faster then crocheting, at least it is to me =) Mary and Josh are amazing with their little sister, they are so good at helping her walk and they're so patient with her when she climbing on them and pulling their hair and head bonking them, i couldn't have asked for more awesome kids.
