what's new?

Wanna know what's new with us?

Here's a rundown...

1.  Em threw my phone in the toilet.  So I lost all my pictures over the last year and have a cheap phone with no camera or internet.  It's been a sad month.  Please bless I can get my hands on the new iphone quickly.

2.  Ash got glasses.  When Dr. Shakula said he might have bad eyes we went to have them checked.  Turns out he was right.  About 20/50.  He now has cute little glasses, which he loved for a day and now could care less about.  The eye doc said he'll probably not care about them until first grade, and then he'll probably need them for school.

3.  Emers has started walking.  He can make it almost across the room.  We are still in the wobbly phase, but it's exciting to see him do it.  I honestly think I'll need a leash for him when he's really mobile, but hopefully he will start to listen to me better by then.

4.  Ash and Tom started karate.  They've only been once, but they both seem to love it and are excited to continue learning.

5.  Tom is coaching Ash's soccer team.  Tom loves working with all the kids, and Asher loves playing.  For someone who can't see well, he really has a gift at playing soccer.  He scores about two goals every game.  Last season we promised him legos if he got five goals, which he quickly did, so this season it's up to 9.

6.  Ash started kindergarten.  He loves it.  Both his little friends moved out of our neighborhood about a month before school started and he was ready to get out and play with some kids.  The first day he told me it was "freaking awesome".  Every day now he says it's just still the same, super fun.  He really likes PE and the ipods.  His little friend Gwen from soccer is in his class, and he has to say good bye to her everyday.
