Kids and School

Another quarter is past us and we are finally at the 1/2 way mark of the school year. The children are all dong wonderful.

Madelyn and Evelyn kept their straight A's and Evelyn actually has a exact duplicate from the quarter before. Evelyn received 1st honors

Joseph skipped a grade this last quarter, and I was amazed to see that he kept a pretty high grade point average, with only 2 B's and the rest A's! Very proud of that, with him receiving 2nd honors.

Jaclyn stayed exactly the same with her straight A's and grade point average, also First Honors

Carolyn pretty close to the same with her straight A's and First Honors.

Katelyn kept her A's in Theology, Latin, Home Ec, Music Appreciation and P.E, bought up her World History to a B, kept her average grades in Biology and English, but is still struggling in Algebra. We are trying a new way to tutor her with Carolyn and Steve's help, but her teacher commented on how hard she tries, and we are very proud of her and all the children!

Tony's Milestones

Newborn-baptism with Doug and Beth Hipps as godparents 2 weeks-first bath 1 month-loves to sleep with Mommy 2 months--smiles big and happily finally nursing well 5month says Mama and Dada the following week 5 months-6months he sits, a little with help and finally without, but we still have to be careful--he pulls himself back 6 months, sleeps 9-5am about once/twice a week, but wakes up just to nurse the rest of the time and goes back to sleep. 6months sleeps in his own bed majority of the time. 6months finally likes tummy time and inch worms 6mo does a crazy shake rattle and roll when he's excited...all hyper like, so cute! 7mo waves, reaches to be picked up, says "Hi" and is eating table food-he prefers to feed himself. 8mo. Saying Dada and getting on his knees rocking back and forth. Loves to eat. Says MMMM--ama! and signs when he wants to eat with his hand to his mouth. 9mo. Tony crawls, waves and claps. 10mo. Tony pulls himself to stand, gets his first tooth. Very happy to be able to go, go, go. Sleeps in the boys room now. At 11mo tony is like a rhino...charge! This week its been Mommy, Mommy, Mommy...have to admit...I love hearing him say it.

Milestones

Rosa 4 months says Mama
5 months says Dada
6 months sits unaided, laughs, plays with toys and watches Play with me Sesame.
Jackie bathes her, Carolyn sings to her, Katelyn rocks her and the little kids love to play with her. She's a Mama's girl right now and may be teething.
7 months Rosa reaches for her own toys and plays so nicely on her own
8 months Rosa is beginning to crawl and has her first tooth!
9 months has her second tooth. She crawls everywhere, talks...today she said "I did it", she chases the vacuum cleaner, cruises along furniture and even lifts her leg over a ride on toy and got on.
