she is really growing!

It's official-little Olivia is now 5 pounds! Thank you for all your prayers-please keep praying. Liv has a ways to go before she gets to come home. She is tackling the bottle, but her little lungs need more time to heal. The medical team jokingly says she will be a handful, because she is such a fighter-we are so glad!

a day at the lake





We all went to Cherry Creek Reservoir to say hi Jon last weekend -he was very busy, but the rest of us had a good time. Although, it is nothing like a Montana lake, we are still thankful.

The Kitty Cat

I had to post this, I thought it was too funny! Stella asked me for a "washable marker" today because she wanted to draw whiskers on her face like a cat. She has done this a few times before, so I thought it would be the same few marks that she normally draws. I was wrong. She came around the corner looking like an Oompa Loompa! I'm still laughing!!! I am so glad that these markers are washable!

Sedalia Elementary Variety Show

Tonight was the Annual Sedalia Elementary Variety Show, and both Maggie and Faith were a part of the production. Here are their videos.

Once Upon A December (from the movie Anastasia) - Maggie

Humu Humu Nuku Nuku A'pua'A - Faith and friends

(at the very end of the song when everyone starts to laugh, the little girl on the far right loses her grass skirt, but makes a quick recovery!)

We love you!

Happy May 1 to Lauren

May I be the First to tell you Lauren . . .
I WON!
Love, Aunt Sarah
