Karalee's handwriting homework
I have been helping Karalee practice her handwriting so she will be confident when she goes to kindergarten this fall. She is doing really well. I give her an example of what the letter should look like and the starting point. When she is finished she can earn 10 stars on her paper. If she has missed a few she has to fix them and then I give her the rest of her stars.

January 2012
We spent a lot of time at home in January taking care of our new baby. It was nice to take it easy.
I love it when I see the kids playing nicely and I think to take a picture
Tilly is getting bigger.
Chad and the boys have had a lot of fun with the new wii games they got for Christmas. Their favorite new game is Mario Strikers Charged. It is a soccer game.
Marlee crashed on the chair with her legs crossed. I thought it was kind of funny.
I took the following two pictures just to prove to myself that I must be doing something right because my children enjoy playing with each other.
Spencer spent almost every night during the month of January holding Tilly for me so she wouldn't cry while I made dinner. He is so good with babies. He is able to get them to calm down and go to sleep. He would stop whatever he was doing and with a good attitude take care of his little sister. I sure love and appreciate his willingness to help.

Christmas 2011
Christmas Eve was so much fun. Here are a few pics of our fun traditions.
Karalee snapped this picture of me helping Marlee get ready. I guess I was making her pony tail too tight.
Chad's parents got a ping pong table for Christmas. We set it up early and Chad had lots of fun beating all of us in ping pong.
The kids had fun playing just dance on the wii.
Acting out the nativity.
All I can say is Wow!
We got a surprise visit from Santa. Marlee was so excited.
My good looking husband!
Sumo Wrestling!!
I couldn't believe that Tilly could sleep through all the noise.
This is the only picture I took on Christmas Day and we ended up taking that toy car back because it quit working a few days later. It was a wonderful Christmas. We went to church after opening presents then spent the afternoon and evening at Penny's house visiting with family. It was so much fun to have a new baby with us this year.
