Is it really March?

Is my baby girl really turning one this month? Where did the time go? I mean I know where it went- lots of nursing, trips to the beach, Disney, enjoying Thanksgiving and Christmas with family, doing diapers, making bread, learning to cook without wheat, milk, eggs, reading books, going on walks, ... but how did it go so fast?
I do have to tell the story behind these cute dressed up boys. I woke up one Sunday morning to big boys already dressed in button down white shirts and corduroys handing me ties for them to wear. K found T's shirt too and asked for a tie for him too. Thankfully we had 3 ties. Then they found sweaters by themselves and asked so sweetly if we go eat at a restaurant to celebrate Valentine's Day. How could we say no to such cute kids? even if this one looks like he's up to something.


What else have we been up to? we had a great weekend at the ROC (Reach Out Celebration) . We went to the banquet Friday night and saw the Children of the World Choir- they were so good. Saturday James went to the Men's breakfast and I went to the Ladies Lunch. Then we all went to the CHAT. Great to hear the stories of all the missionaries at work around the world. The boys really got into acting out missionaries. Now they've added that onto their list of what to be when they grow up- the current list includes construction worker in Sri Lanka (because they have a lot of dirt there), crossing guard, animal rescuer, Army man, school bus driver, and hot eater.
We've also had some new cooking- learning to cook without milk, eggs, and wheat- what's left? Most of the time it's gone well- although the cupcakes & brownies didn't turn out so hot. We also caught the tummy bug going around. Other than that all is well. K is doing terrific at reading and math. C is so full of life. T is becoming his own little man. and KG is super sweet (especially if she's on a lap!)
