The funny things our kids are doing

Max is trying to run these days.  He took his first 3 steps today and it was dang cute!!!!!  He is crawling so fast and it is so much fun to watch him.  He loves to wrestle and watch his sisters play.  He dances to music and makes as much noise as he can whether its banging things or yelling at me to pick him up.  He enjoys eating way too much, but it is nice to have a child that will eat.

Ashley is always keeping us on our toes and keeps us smiling.  Today Mike was asking the girls if we ever move into a house if they would want to share a room or have a room of their own.  Of course Brooke's reply was quick and she said she would want her own room.  Little Ash sat for a minute thinking about it and then she said, "When Brooke gets out of bed and goes downstairs in the middle of the night IT WILLY BUGS ME!!!"  So she obviously wants her own room.  One day when we win the lottery and get a 4 bedroom house then they will each have their own room.  

Brooke has the oldest child syndrome and is quite bossy!!!  She is a big helper with Max though and she is starting to help out more and I really appreciate it.  She is an awesome speller and loves doing math.  She has also showed more interest in reading and writing.  She is a great little student and her teacher says that she is one of the most courteous and respectful students that she has and that makes me so happy.  She really struggled with the bus last semester so we now take her and pick her up which makes us all a whole lot happier!!!

Mike is busy doing school.  He really enjoys all that he is learning in the tax program at BU.  He helps out so much on the weekends and when he is here and I feel so blessed to have that help. He "wants" (more like I want him to do this with me for fun!!!! hehehe) to do a half marathon with me in May, but we'll see if he'll be able to pull it off.  He says he'll ride his bike.  

I am busy with Relief Society and the kids.  I'm not teaching as much and I feel much calmer now that I only have to leave once a week to teach instead of teaching 4 days a week.  I am enjoying training for the half marathon in May and yes I will run it.  I have been training with a friend that lives in my apartment complex.  It has been nice to have a training buddy because I have not had one since before I got married.  

I will try to get some pictures up this week.  

We love you all!!!
