Happy New Year 2011!

Well, as you know, holidays come and go fast!! We had just a bit of snow so far this winter. This is Micah's first run in a little dusting we had.
Micah was in his first stage performance with the Montessori School winter program. Too cute!

Ben has really grown since last year which made Christmas more fun. He got into singing carols and thoroughly enjoyed decorating his candy house. While he is not a crafty kind of guy, the candy was a real attraction!

We are almost home with Micah four months now! He is adding some words to his vocabulary such as "get down" and "Boma" for Bennett. He happily follows Ben in the school door two mornings a week. He also continues to go along with me to any store with a smile on his face! Sometimes I'll go in the evening and take Micah along so Brad and Ben can play "big boy" dragons and bears without interruption.

Micah continues to eat well. I discovered he loves cooked carrots. Yeah! And I found out too many snacks make him think if he holds out at dinnertime, I'll bring out the good food! He is napping longer now.
Ben turns 5 years old at the end of January. Somehow, for Ben it has been almost like a teenager turning 16 - a prize achievement. I think it has to do with his anticiaption of going to kindergarten. Wrestling is a big activity at our house this winter and maybe every winter until they go to college!
