Organizing Photos

I updated the album links. I have compiled various pictures in each album, so some you have probably seen before. New in the albums are pictures from Thanksgiving, some goofing around pictures and outtakes from our Christmas card "photo shoot." When you get to the Kodak page, just click the link "view photos without signing in."

Looking at the pics, it's amazing seeing how much Katie has changed from day one. She only has 2 teeth, but that does not stop her from eating a lot. She has a huge appetite, but she stays her little self (she was in the 20th percentile for size at her last checkup). She eats lots of solid food, and has mastered crawling and pulling herself up, and even stands for short periods without holding on to anything.

Jack is on his Christmas break. All the grades K-5 performed last week in the Christmas concert and he loved it! He got a wonderful report card (mostly just a progress report) and he reading really well. He reads to ME a lot at bedtime...his favorite to read is Hippos Go Berserk. I think he just likes saying "berserk."

Counting down to Christmas morning! We had a snow and sleet storm on Sunday (city crippled by a mere 1 inch of snow), but our power went out for about 5 hours in the afternoon. Not fun! It put me way behind (I was going to do a bunch of baking, wrapping and packing boxes). But yesterday (Monday the 19th) ended up being a snow day for Jack, so we stayed home, baked cookies and played. It was a fun day!
