I hope to keep this blog regular again as life is finally returning to a somewhat normal status now that the last of us has made her appearance! Indie Lynn was born on Dec. 30 and is a perfectly healthy and happy baby:) She has been wonderful so far and her older siblings adore her. So do the dogs - they occasionally try to sneak in licking the toes. What is so appealing about baby toes? I have even caught Parker trying to nibble her toes!
Here's the update on everyone else:
Otter is doing OK in school. His amazing intellect has now become a handicap for him as he thinks he does not need to work at all at school. Its a tough battle to keep him challenged and yet reinforce he still needs to learn the basics. He is going to start playing lacrosse, which should be a lot of fun for all of us. I can't wait to get a stick and practice with him! Once all this snow melts of course, until then, ice hockey on the local pond with his dad has been his sport of choice for the weekend.
Beanie is doing great. She loves school and is such a social butterfly. She is learning how to read and is quite the whiz in math. She can put together puzzles, train tracks, and buildings of legos faster than I have seen anyone else do it! She still has that loose tooth but thankfully has not tied it to anything else yet trying to yank it out. She is taking swim lessons and loves being in the water. She will definitely be on the swim team with Otter this year. I am so happy to have kids in love with the water!
Parker is 2-1/2. 'Nuff said:) Here's a video of him from the summer trying to emulate Otter at the swim meets:
Indie is wonderful. She is not yet sleeping through the night but has good 4-5 hour stretches. Good enough for us! She only fusses when she is hungry and it is not really a fuss, more of a squeak. Very adorable. I wonder how old she needs to be before I can throw her in the pool???
