January/February

January & February were my picture fail months.  I literally took not one picture in January & only pictures on Valentines in February.  So sad.  They were also a bit crazy months.  I was put into Young Women's in November & getting the new year started was a little hectic.  It's been fun though.  I have always loved Young Women's and this time is no exception.  I have a pretty awesome group of girls & super fun leaders to work with. 
We spent a lot of time at home in January due to the cold.  Jason has started & finished a few projects (pictures to come), which has kept him busy.  The girls are loving school & having lots of fun indoor playdates. 
In February the girls both started their basketball season.  It isn't quite over yet, so I will get some pictures.  This is Lauren's first year playing & Emily's second.  They have had so much fun & improved a lot.  Lauren's games are pretty funny, lots of traveling, double dribbling, etc, but she has a great coach & has learned a lot.  It's amazing the difference a couple of years make because Emily's team is really starting to "get it."  Passing is still difficult (everyone wants to score) but they are really starting to understand the game.  Both girls have scored, despite usually being one of the shortest, which is super exciting to them.  They have two more weeks & then right after basketball ends, soccer begins!
Abby is 2!  That's pretty much sums it up for her.  She can be the sweetest & in an instant turn around and be a little stinker!  But she is so so fun and cute (which saves her a lot!)  She adores her sisters & can't wait for them to come home each day.  She talks & talks, counts to fifteen, wears her tutu & tap shoes everywhere & has recently taken to loving to sing her nursery songs.  Speaking of nursery, after 8 months of Jason going every week with her, she has finally started going to nursery by herself.  Jason & I have actually been able to attend Sunday School together the last 3 weeks!  It's heavenly.
