November already?

We had a nice weekend at home. We've been on-the-go so much lately, it was nice to have some down time. Here's a little update on each of the girls...

Bethany's vocabulary is exploding. She's been listening and absorbing everything she hears, and now she's in playback mode. Last night I said "oh, man!" and she repeated it perfectly. She also does an excellent imitation of an emergency vehicle siren.

Anna has recovered from her ear infection and has discovered that not all medicines are yucky - this refrigerated pink bubble gum stuff isn't so bad! She and her sisters helped two of her good friends celebrate birthdays this weekend. There was a ballon artist, marching band, and puppet show. So much fun!

Katie brought home an awesome report card on Friday - straight A's! We're so proud of her! I am hopeful that her enthusiasm towards school will carry over to her sisters. She is currently reading The Boggart by Susan Cooper, but always has bookmarks in at least 2 or 3 other books.

They are all going to get their flu shots tomorrow (they don't know that yet). Pray for a not-so-unpleasant experience!

Last but not least, we'd like to wish Grandpa a Happy Birthday...
