Yikes

Yikes, I'm not sure I've ever gone two weeks without posting some pictures of the kiddos!  We haven't been that busy, I guess I've just been a bit lazy.  And although I don't like it, the kids seem to be going to bed later and later, which cuts into "my time" to sit and play on the computer :-) 

I don't think I've done a kid update in awhile, so here goes...and there are pictures, too!

Abby

* Loves, and I mean LOVES, reading. Will read anything, but especially loves her chapter books.  She likes the Junie B Jones series, but she is still fascinated with Harry Potter and is reading one of the books (the forth one? I'm not sure) every night before bed.

* Is currently taking ice skating lessons and is having a good time with it.  They just mentioned that the students can participate in an ice show in March, and of course she is all over that! She can't wait to see what the costume is going to look like.

* Is still loving horses, and very much wants to take riding lessons. There is a stable near us that we stop at every once and awhile to see the horses; unfortunately, they don't offer lessons, but we are looking into it. 

Hannah

* Refuses to wear anything but princess dresses.  It wasn't a problem when the weather was nicer, but it's getting a bit chilly to be out and about in her little dresses. We've tried to put clothes on underneath the princess dresses, but of course she doesn't like that.

* Is sleeping SO MUCH BETTER now (another thanks to Grandma Newman!).  We are all actually getting uninterrupted sleep now....so nice :-)

* Loves to stay up "reading" in her bed after I put her to bed. Mike and I will be downstairs watching tv and hear her reading aloud to herself. It's very cute.

Griff

* Wants to play cars all.the.time. And if he's not playing cars,  he's watching the movie.

* Is very sweet towards Hannah. Always wants to make sure she is okay, and is the first to share a toy with her.

* Would stay cuddled up in his bed all morning long if we let him. Seriously, I'll hear him over the monitor, and finally after an hour I'll go up to get him.  He still kicks me out and tells me he's not ready to get up yet!
