Playing a little "Catch up"

Wow. I can’t believe it is already March! We have had a lot going on at our home. The holiday’s seemed to fly by a little too fast, much like they always do!

Joe is continuing to study hard in school. He is also working when he can. He has enjoyed church basketball being around for the last couple of months and will miss it when it is gone.

Lindsay is growing way to fast! She isn’t a baby anymore and is turning into such a big girl. She enjoys helping me with everything that I do. Lately her favorite way to help is by cleaning any surface she can reach with a sponge. Hopefully, she will continue the desire to help! She is now beginning to be more and more vocal. One of her most common phases is “Here ya go”. This is used whenever she hands you something and sometimes when she wants you to hand her something. Her other most common phase is “what is this?” or “what is that?” I thought that I might get tired of hearing these words after a while but she is really good about only needing the answer once and moving on. She has also been working really hard on learning her animals. She finds them fascinating. We are also working with her right now on learning how to share. She has just entered the stage of wanting a toy for no reason other than somebody else has it. Hopefully this is a short stage.

I have been staying busy running after Lindsay, fulfilling my church calling, and just doing the everyday chores. I have been trying to make a couple cute little crafts. So far I have the materials for two, with one started and lots of ideas for more. All in thanks to my friends from church who attend the sewing group! If only I could be more creative on my own!

We are all anticipating the warmer weather, which is not coming fast enough! We are just itching to be able to go on a walk without our winter coats and boots on. We just have to wait for the snow to melt!

Hope everyone is doing well!
