Update on the Kids

Emma is a fun as ever and is learning how to read and loving school!  The teachers at school call her Fancy Nancy because she has such a large vocabulary.  Her teacher asks the kids what certain words mean thinking no one know and she says Emma always knows what the words mean.  She is such a free spirit and is always running, jumping, and crafting.
 This little guy will be 3 in April!  Seems crazy.  He is really growing up and turning into a big boy!  He LOVES to help me cook and has to be in the kitchen with me at all times. 
This picture cracks me up.  Eli in his Spiderman costume, which he has worn 95% of everyday since Halloween, Emma's very girly apron, and his green monster boots (not pictured).
 Liam is such a happy baby!  He is 5 months old now and just giggles and laughs all the time.  We recently got out he "jungle jumparoo"  and he loves it!  He is just like Emma and jumps and jumps and jumps!
The boys and I have lots of fun while Emma is at school!

Ice Skating!

We took the kids ice skating a couple weeks ago and they loved it!  As you can see from the pictures taking an almost 3 and 5 year old ice skating for the first time is not easy.  Luke and I skated them around most of the time but they did get it, a little bit.  The ice skating area was pretty busy but I was just glad that there was no one there we knew.  The kids, Luke, and I were having a ball but I know we looked completely ridiculous!  Ice skating has always been such a dream of Emma's.  For a long time she said she wanted to be an ice skater when she grew up.  In her prayers that night she prayed that we could go ice skating again really soon. 
This is when we first stepped on the ice.  The kids could not stay up!
