Catching up

Okay... so it's February! Wow. Where'd January go?? It seems as if it were a bit of a blur! Noah had his 8th birthday!! We went to Burger King with cousins and grandparents. Then we headed to the Family Fun Center (arcade) and let the kids play some games. They had lots of fun. Then home for spaghetti dinner and brownies and icecream!!



The men ... My Eric, Erik B, and Wayne.

COUSINS... (L-R: Alexander, Josiah, Micah, Noah, Matthew, and Carissa)

"CHEEEEEESE" by Josiah.

Carissa got a whole bunch of tickets from one of her games! It was nearly as tall as her!! :)

FUN STUFF!

Happy 8th Birthday, Noah!!

Alexander LOVED his icecream!! Ha!!

Carissa has lost 3 teeth now. All on the bottom. She's pulled all 3 of them herself. Of course, she has a little help since the grown up teeth are literally pushing through the gums and pushing them out of the way! But she's been very brave and not all the pulling herself (with a kleenex of course!). The toothfairy is running low on coins! I think she has the "Hostetler" tooth genes as the grown up teeth are proving to be LARGE! The space where 3 baby teeth came out is completely taken up with 2 grown up teeth. Can you say BRACES?? Better start saving now.

Here she is showing how she can push her tongue thru the space! And you thought it was only reserved for straws!!! :)

Hopefully I'll keep up better in February. We have 2 birthday's and a short vacation this month so HOPEFULLY we'll have some more pics!!!
