SHE DID IT!

Well Katie did it! SHE WALKED! No pictures yet because every time she started to do it we all yelled excitedly and it freaked her out so she would sit down and cry. It's just like my kids to wait till the last day before you have to call the doctor to see if they have special needs!

And we can all sigh in relief

Well Jake did it, he defended his dissertation last week and it went smoothly, They congratulated him and told him he could call himself a "Doctor". Now all I have to do while he's deployed is doing the wrap ups (signatures here, bounding a book there...) and my man will be graduating with his PhD.! While in Afghanistan no less! But HE WILL BE DONE WITH SCHOOL! I dont know how to handle that, 10 years of marraige and 10 years of school. That's all we know!

I made that!

Okay with a lot of help of my wonderful friend Monica who guided my hand the whole time in making Katie's kitchen. I finally finished it today (it just needs a few touch ups of paint) but oooh yeah I did my first woodworking job! By the way the little oven part does open up and under the skirt is a shelf where Katie can store all her cute little plates and mixing bowls! I'm having waaay too much fun with having a girl, next thing to make is a refrigerator that matches the oven and sink! SOOO CUTE!

Grosser than Gross

What's gross?: Splash, Splash...Katie playing in the toilet

What's grosser than that?: Speee, Splash Splash, Kyle yelling "NOOO KATIE!!"...Katie playing in the toilet, while Kyle pee's and then trying to grab the stream of pee! GROSS!!!!

For some reason the girl can't get her mind off the toilet! She loves it...whenever she's missing in action we know to look in the bathrooms first. Let me tell you it's inspired me to keep my bathroom super clean! GROSS!

Snow = Goggles

So we got A LOT of snow the other day and Kyle went and got his goggles out, and wore them all day long, he even fell asleep with them on and anytime we tried to take them off he would freak out so apparently you need goggles when there is snow outside in kyle's world.
