February in review...

Holy Smokes it's March!  I apologize for the delay in posting but my spare time has been a little limited these past few weeks.

Where to start....Audrey is gearing up for spring break.  We aren't going anywhere over her break but she is very excited about Easter.  I am excited that she is excited and that she is NOT obsessing about candy, easter bunnies, egg hunts, and all the other activities that take away from the TRUE meaning of Easter.  Her class is having a "resurrection" party at school next Friday in preparation for the holiday.  She talks often about the meaning of Easter and just God in general. She has got all her dinner prayers nailed down as well as the "Our Father".  I couldn't be more proud :)  She now is all about seeing video of herself.
Our Father


Holy Mary
I am happy to report that the kids are officially "FIGHTING".  Oh yes....they had their first all out brawl a few Sundays ago at church.  The mass hadn't even started and they were pushing, pulling hair, and shoving each other in the face.  We had to separate them after that till things cooled down.  It was quite embarrassing although the families around us found it entertaining.  Anderson is learning how to defend himself and is quick to use his teeth.  At least on Audrey and Ben he is...and not kids at daycare (for that I am grateful).  So we have some bad habits we need to work on...For the most part, him and Audrey play really well together.  I took them both to track practice last week and the kids/parents on the team were shocked how loving they are to one another!  Anderson would run up to Audrey while she was practicing and they would hug and Audrey would give him a big kiss on the forehead and he was loving every minute of it!

Anderson is officially out of the crib/nursery.  I just have to put the finishing touches on his new room and I will post pictures. We had the twin bed set up in the nursery for about 2 weeks till he caught on, then we moved him into the former guest room and took the crib down all together.  Ben was nervous that he wouldn't adjust...we totally under estimated this little boy.  He loves his new room (complete with basketball hoop) not to mention he has his own bathroom so his days of sharing a tub with Audrey are OVER!  He is talking more and more and even with attitude.

We are about 1 month away from Geletka VACAY 2013 and I couldn't be more excited!  We are taking a break from HHI this year and heading to Destin, FL. Can't wait to get to the beach with these kids!

Here are some cute pics from the last few weeks!


Making her Valentines cards for school

He just wanted the balloons :)

Celebrating Tommy's Bday at Playland!

He climbed up 2 sets up steps and went down a large tunnel slide all by himself.  Scary how independent he can be!


Loves shovels and rakes and working outside...our little MINI BEN ;)

Working hard...
