SIX





Carter turned 6 last weekend. Every year on the kid's birthdays we watch the video of the day they were born. It is so much fun to watch especially with them. Griffin had no idea, he kept saying "that's baby Griffy." That day seems like so long ago yet every detail is etched into out minds. Any of you who knew us then know what an adventure that day was for everybody. We are so blessed that Carter is so healthy despite his rough start. After watching Carter's video they wanted to see Griffin's. Carter's is 2 tapes long and Griffin's not even half a tape. We do have an excuse, nobody was at the hospital (except me) until 2 hours after Griffin was born. I can see why there are very few pictures of my third brother! Anyway, we really enjoyed his birthday this year celebrating with his friends one day and family the next. I had cake coming out of my ears last week!!

We also managed to get out for a day of sledding on the only nice day in the month of January! Carter's hockey team played after the first period of the UW-EC and UW-Stout hockey game last weekend. It was so much fun to watch 4-6 year old out there with those huge crowds. Carter LOVED it, he does not mind having a lot of people watching him. Griffin started gymnastics last week and he is having so much fun. He is so cute out there yelling "mom, I did it." I started a new mom's club/Bible study and am really enjoying it. It is 1-1/2 hours devoted to God. There is so much to learn and so much growing to be done, I cannot wait!!

We are off to the Dells this weekend. Check back next week as we are completing our home study portion of the adoption on Monday.
