so, i have been given a hard time for not posting any pictures in over a month....sorry!!! hope these will do for now. we do have a couple of videos we would like to post, but that will be another day. i can only be on here for so long.
well, our big news is that addi is starting potty training. for a few weeks now, addison has been telling us "potty" and "poopy", but by the time she tells us, she has already gone, but about two weeks ago, addison started telling us before she went, but when we would sit her on the potty chair, she wouldn't do anything. so last monday, i was sitting on the couch, and addison says "poopy", and i checked her diaper, and she hadn't gone, so i went and set her on the potty chair, and she WENT POOPY!!!! sorry for those of you who don't have children and aren't as excited as we are! so all week long we have been attempting the feat of potty training. it is still pretty hit or miss. she tells us sometimes and she doesn't tell us other times, but i guess it is a start.
other news.....brock is loving his new job, just finished making my sister's wedding announcements and is getting excited about taking her pictures in june. i am still at the hospital and staying busy.
we are loving our house, and are attempting to do the finishing touchups on the trim. not a very exciting project, but needed none the less.
i hope everyone is having a great year. God has been ever faithful to us and has blessed us with a great group of friends here. we are enjoying being closer to family and spending more time with them.

so the girls in our bible study decided to have a theme bowling party. we all had to dress up like we were 9 months pregnant. so here are a few shots of the afternoon

kyle made it to the top

darcy was the queen of the night and made it to the top on her first try

we got to do the climbing walls at our church one night. it was so much fun. here are just a few of the pics of the evening.

addi and mommy

having fun in the snow with lissy


riding the horsey at gramma's house

so, there is an explaination for these faces....brock bought some gross jelly bellys, flavors like vomit, rottin egg, and moldy cheese, except they all came in a box with two flavors the same color, so you didn't really know if you were getting a good flavor or a disgusting flavor. unfortanately, we all got the gross ones.

look at my cool new tent!!
and my new horsey!

brocks "leg lamp"
