January 2012

Wow!  Cant believe it has been a month since my last post--and I cant believe January is about to come to an end- Already!  Everyone says "the older you get, the faster times goes by"--I am only 28!!!  I can not imagine how quickly the days will pass in 10-20 years! 
Well this month has been a pretty good one.  We had another round of cold/fever/cough/runny nose spread between the kids in mid January.  It lasted about a week, but we made it through.  We have had approx 1 week of good health since then, so I figured it was about right when I picked up Brooks earlier today and could immediately tell he had a fever (101.9)  UGHH!!  Here we go again!
Exciting news....Braden is walking!  Braden decided to take his first steps Thursday (1/26/12).  He has been very close to taking off for the past few weeks, so I knew he would be on 2 feet teeter-tottering around soon.  Brooks is not quite ready to walk, although he has definitely been showing more interest in trying to walk in the past week.  I feel sure he will be up moving like the other two very soon!  Kate has become even more steady on her feet and walks much more than she crawls these days.  She is still a very sweet baby girl who loves to "give love" by hugging, kissing, blowing kisses.  Her latest trick is being able to identify and name a duck AND say "quack quack" (which actually sounds more like dquack dquack").  
We attempted our first weekend trip with the kids this month.  Last weekend we took a short trip to Gatlinburg with my parents, brother and sister in law.  We had a great time, especially since Gramps and Gigi offerred to keep the kids in their condo, leaving us a room to ourselves and 2 good nights of sleep:) The packing required to take 3 babies on a simple weekend trip is overwhelming.  Our vehicle looked more like we were moving to Gatlinburg, rather than staying only 2 nights.  Despite all the work it took to actually get there, we had a great time.  The kids did pretty well.  Kate definitely knew she was out of her usual setting and off schedule, but overall did good.
2012 off to a good start--cant wait to see what the rest of the year will bring!
