Keira

Monday, February 15, 2010

Keira took her first steps today. She was in the middle of the hallway and she took a couple of steps down the hall and then balanced herself and fell down. Cameron witnessed the event because he was off school today for Presidents Day. Actually, he has been off for several days due to teacher days. Tomorrow he goes back that means I have to get up early again. I have enjoyed my 5 days of sleeping in.

Garrett and Keira and I didn't go to church yesterday because they were coughing so badly. They both caught a horrible cold in the same day. Cameron is doing well. I hope he doesn't get it tomorrow in time for school. The other two are doing much better today so hopefully they can kick the cold soon. At least Garrett hasn't spent the day coughing the whole day.

Busy, Busy

We have been keeping ourselves busy around here. I have steady sewing jobs each week to keep me on my toes. I've earned enough recently to pay for the renewal fee to enroll Cameron in his private school for next year. Tomorrow is the open house so we will re-enroll him then. The school is so wonderful though we can't imagine sending him anywhere else. If you have local school age kiddos than come on out tomorrow and check Maryville Christian School out. It is from 6-8 pm.

Mike worked on the bathroom this past weekend and he replaced some rotting studs and the tub floor. I love the smell of sawdust in the basement. We have a long way to go but there is some progress.

I am working on getting some Mary Kay tax paperwork together so that Mike can get our tax documents done. We need the refund for the bathroom and for our anniversary trip to St. Martin. I need to book the flight and get our passports. It's a little hard to think about when it is so frigid outside. I can't wait for spring and flowers.

Keira turned one and she is now cruising all around the room. As long as she is holding on to something she can walk around; otherwise, she just crawls all over. She is one who does not like to be confined in one spot. I guess because she wants to keep up with her brothers.
