February 2010

February was such a busy month for us. We celebrated Keldon's birthday, Granny's birthday and my birthday. It seemed to never stop! Luckily March has slowed down so I can get these posted! Keldon is still likes school. He is reading really well now. He has learned to clean his room and become more independent. Katie is talking so much now. Her word list now includes: mommy (momeeee), daddy (daddeee), cookie, pretzel, bubbles, bath, baby, pizza (peezee), outside, doggie, back, yea, shoes, coat and I will need to keep thinking of the rest. She loves to throw things in the trash. The other day I found her tossing a whole pile of clean socks in the garbage can. We have had to start checking it before we empty it. She also loves putting her dirty clothes back in her dresser. She knows that is where they belong. She just does not understand the whole cleaning process! She loves being outside. We go to the park all the time. She loves doing the big slides now. She has also learned to go down on her bottom instead of her tummy. She wants to do everything big brother Keldon does and hates it when I have to stop her from things she is just too small for still. She is such a girly girl. She loves her hair "pretties" and loves carrying around a purse. She also has a shoe obsession. We try on many pairs throughout the day. She makes me smile all day long. Her newest love is saying prayers. She folds her arms now when she thinks it is appropriate to say a prayer. I love it! She tries to say amen, but does not quite have it yet. I love my children. I am so thankful they are a part of our family. I hope I can do my best everyday to teach them and help them grow into their full potential.
