Welcome to our new site!

Well we got a new blog due to the length of the title of the last.... ANYWAY.... we have been great. I have finally got a new schedule worked out with the kids..mostly so I don't go crazy. Here is the update on our family... -Emma is doing great and loving life. She has three stuffed animals that she calls her "kids". We are starting to work on teaching her letters and numbers. I have to admit I am anti-preschool (but that’s another story). Emma is now in primary and LOVING it. She can't wait to go to church ever week. She spends as much time as possible outside in the snow. She and Noah have become the best of friends, especially when they play in the snow. -Noah is doing much better since he started taking a steroid for his asthma. He repeats everything anyone says but also comes up with is own material. Tyrell asks him every night what he named his stuffed bear and stuffed moose...Noah finally replied two nights ago and said that his bear was named trouble and his moose was named spankin'. We got a kick out of that one. We are hoping to start potty training in another two months when he will be 2 1/2 years old. -Lauren is just the happiest little girl. No matter what mood I'm in, one look at her smile and I can't help but laugh. She is officially walking and starting to talk. Tyrell takes the three outside almost every day and Lauren loves it...but mostly because she gets to eat the snow. -Joshua is doing great. He is putting on weight like crazy and will officially be two months old next week. We found out that he as what is called a "micro-formed cleft" which means that he had a cleft in the womb, but it healed by itself. So he has what looks like a scar that runs from his left nostril down to his lip, a small cleft in his gum line, a low soft palate, and a few hearing issues. We are SO grateful that it healed itself before he was born. He goes to see the plastic surgeon at the end of Feb to make sure everything is good in his nose area. We are all doing amazing and we hope you enjoy these pictures and videos!!!
