Where the heck have we been? A January Recap

Well, this may be kind of a jumbled mess... it's been awhile since I've posted, and we've had a lot going on.

Early in the month was cousin Grayson's 3rd birthday--a superfun pool party. I got some cute pics of the boys hanging out in the pool.




As is evidenced by that last picture, Luke is totally walking these days. He is so incredibly cute. He has a way about him that just puts a smile on everyone's face. Perhaps it's because he's always flashing a coy smile of his own. He is getting one of his top molars, which looks very painful but is in great spirits. On Monday, I took him to the dentist to get his teeth sealed because two of them are missing the enamel. This sealant has since fallen off... so we'll be going back.
Luke also had his 15 month well child check up last week. He was 21 lbs 11.5 oz (I think) and 31 inches long. Although I can't remember his head circumference, I know it was in the 94th percentile. Gotta love those big headed babies of mine! He has turned the corner and is now gaining weight, so no more weight checks for us!! That makes me really happy!

Malachi has been involved in Cub Scouts and is doing really well. He just got his bobcat badge (whatever that means) a week ago
and he is also LOVING skiing this winter. He's gotten to go three days so far, including last weekend when we stayed in Sandpoint at a hotel with the extended family and went up both days. Almost immediately, he wanted me to let him go in the terrain park so he could go off some jumps (I politely declined). By Sunday afternoon, he was cruising down the bunny hill, barely falling, and turning beautifully. I hardly had to wait for him. I think next time (good snow permitting) I'll have to give in and take him up the big chair lifts. I am actually really excited to have something that he and I can do together.



So last weekend in Sandpoint, they had a winter festival which everyone really liked. Luker especially liked all the people clapping for the fireworks. I had to take a video it was so damn cute!


Well, I think that is enough of an update for now!
