Gabriel-
-Does not know how to walk anywhere (ok really none of my children do)
-smacks his over sized melon on everything. I told Michael I think he's always so happy because he always has a concussion so everything seems new and exciting.
-Talks up a storm...he will copy everything Keija says and since she copies everything Kk says we have an echo problem. It's a "problem " I will gladly take:)
-Has to climb everything in sight...he has done this since he was 6 months old and pulled him self to a standing position before he even knew how to crawl. There is nothing I have seen this kid can't figure out how to get up, over, under, around or just bulldoze his way through. His latest endeavor was the side of his sister's bunk-beds, Heaven help us!
Keija-
-is quite the little sweet heart lately...she always was to her dad and I but I'm fairly certain not a single other soul on earth would have labeled her that way. She is very thoughtful and LOVES to be the big sister.
-She has decided their should be 2 babies in mom's belly...she can't make up her mind on the names she likes so she just says there are two:)
-She a defiant little punk...most days she is very well behaved at home and does most of what I ask her to do or not do, but if catch her on a day she doesn't it will be the entire day from wake up to knock out of not listening AT ALL.
-She LOVES her big sissy.
Kailye-
-After missing a full week and a half of school split between before and after Christmas break she spent a LOT of time playing catch up at school. The homework and schedule at her school demand it, but she did it all in the week she was back to school and is doing great.
-She is loving playing the piano now that she has figured out she can play anything she wants now that she knows all the right notes:)
-She is (most of the time) the best big sister and momma's helper around!...I was having a hard time keeping my cool today-not something that happens often for me-and the babies were climbing all over my bed while I was trying to go through bills, when kk stopped her homework and came and took them out into the family room to watch a movie. A few moinutes later she came in and said "are you good now?" She's an angel.
Me-
-I'm the size of a house and grateful not to have to be on bed rest anymore!
Michael-
-Back at school this semester and has 5 online Psychology classes...he decided since the baby is due part way through the semester and you never know how things will go with that he better make himself accessible, which has already proven to be a blessing. We also have to figure out how to make some money during all this seeing as we haven't had income since July.
-He made the Utah Warriors Rugby team which is a pro team that just started here. We were worried about the schedule but practices ended up being at 11 at night so he doesn't miss anytime with his kids and still has time to work and do homework. Hopefully they will be playing at Rio Tinto this spring. Good news-we don't have to pay for a thing, the team is owned:)
We still haven't come up with a name for our new little man yet. We were leaning toward Luca or Raphael but now neither seems to fit. We do like Titan and Kingston though...who knows?...boys names are the worst!
