WEEKLY REVIEW (with capitals...it was a big week!)

Katie Anne has started to pull her little self up to a standing position and it is so darn cute! Look at those cute little legs! She has also started really moving and I feel like I can not keep track of her. I asked Jack to watch her once and he didn't do that great of a job...she had found John's screwdriver and was chewing on it and 2 saws were close by. Did I mention that it's not a good idea to get ready to move with a baby who moves herself? Anyway, I've been way more careful. You can also see in the next picture that her hair is growing a bit. When she's nice and sweaty it curls up a bit.

On Friday we went bowling with Shar, Rachel, and their kids. We had a fun time. Some of the balls the kids threw went super slow but eventually made it to the end. Shar won the whole game with an even 100. Man, we're good!

School started yesterday. The boys were very excited to get started again. They were up and at it pretty early, but today the novelty had worn off. You might notice, if you're really looking for it, that Jeffrey has a different shirt on by the time we get to the school shots. As we were getting out of the van at school he managed to fall right in the ditch which, for some unknown reason, had water in it. We loaded back up, came home and changed, and had a pretty smooth first day. Except for Jeffrey, again, who had a sub the first day because his teacher's mom is sick. He's still a little nervous about so much freedom at school but he'll be fine. Jack likes his teacher and said that she 'actually is very nice'. I put notes in their lunch boxes but he informed me that it was "sooo embarrasing if someone saw that it said 'I love you' on it so I hid it to read it but I really liked it."

The house is now officially on the market and you can find it on the MLS list if you know our zipcode and what our house looks like. We still need to add pictures and some more details but it will be there shortly. Now we are in the keep the house looking perfect stage but not a lot of hard labor left. Speaking of labor, welcome to little Natalie...John's brother and his wife just had a sweet little girl last week.
