Hello Everybody!

Hi guys sorry it has been so long since I last blogged. I'm surprised I have not been contacted by NARR. Well, a lot has happened. My Grandpa was hospitalized again. He contracted staff pneumonia, which is the worst kind you can get, along with influenza in his lungs. I believe he is still alive because of the many people praying for him. Most of my family got together in Colorado Springs a couple weeks ago to visit him. Since that time he has improved dramatically. He is out of the hospital and back in a nursing home.

Sam and Anna have been busy. Sam is doing more all the time. His latest feats include going potty on his little potty occasionally and writing on the wall and his sister with a black magic marker. Just incase this ever happens to anyone else, rubbing alcohol for the walls and hairspray for skin works wonders. I am so glad I have the internet. Apparently Sam is in good company. I found a lot of good sources for magic marker removal. Sam has also learned how to unlock the front door deadbolt included. He can also open the front gate. Life as we knew it is over. Anyone out there who has a baby who can't walk, run or reach doorknobs...enjoy it while you can!!!

Anna is amazing. Last week I put her on her stomach and checked my e-mail. When I turned back around a couple minutes later Anna was sitting up. I thought I might be going crazy and just thought I had laid her on her stomach but she did it again the next morning. She is also eating French fries and crawling very slowly. She is getting big fast.

I have my car back!!!! After two and a half months of being stuck at home I finally have my car back. I am so glad! I was going a bit stir crazy. I'm making up for lost time; I have already gone to visit Emilee twice since I got it back. The pictures are from our visit yesterday. It was great. I played basketball with the boys (which is not easy in a skirt), we all went on a walk, the Em and I had cooking lessons, and tried to knit. We are not so good at the knitting thing but the biscuits and gravy turned out great!So there is the latest, sorry I kept you all in suspense for so long.
I think Sammy likes Abbie.

Aren't they so cute?
The boys tipped over the dog house and were rolling around.

Who knew those two (Sam and Abbie) would ever like each other. I'm so glad they are finally playing together without screaming!
