Fun times

Sorry I haven't updated this blog. We have been very busy the last month.

It's been really cold here. Although now it doesn't get dark until almost 6pm. YAY! I feel its been dark forever. I remember the first year in Canada it was hard to get use to the weather and the long dark hours of winter. It wasn't that bad this time around but i am missing the warm sun.

Keira is starting to learn to read. She recognizes a few words and has memorized about 4 books now. She missed a week of school because she was sick. Poor thing missed her Valentines party. She has finally learned to pedal her bike. It was getting so frustrating trying to get her to pedal forward. Keira also just finished baskeball from the Y. She had alot of fun. Jeff took her to the reptile zoo. She loved holding all the snakes and even touched a Madagascar cockroach. EEEHHH!

Paije is coming into her own. She is talking a lot now. I can mostly understand her and when I cant Keira can. Poor thing got her sister's cold and finally learned to blow her nose. It only took two days of me sitting on her to hold her down to use the bulb. She got tired of that pretty quick. Paije also loved basketball. She is too young to get signed up but the coach let her practice with the kids. If you yell DEFENSE she stands with her arms out and knees bent. Paije has also learned to count to 10 and can mostly say her ABC's. She tries to read books too.

Jeff and I are doing good. Jeff had a case of Mirsa but we caught it in time and its all cleared up. We had a couples card night last week and had a blast. We have also had a date night. We went out for sushi and just hung out. I love those times. Its nice to reconnect and have time to ourselves without having to deal with the girls.

Here are some pictures of the last month.
