William- Rolled from back to front. Learned how to blow raspberries, so now has bubbles and drool :) Can also sit on his own for a short time.

Kaylee- She has gotten tall enough to climb into her crib. She gets her toes hooked over the top rail and drops herself over to land with a thud on the mattress. Kaylee is our little mommy. She shadows Karen, following her around and copying her. She helps with William, gets his toys when he drops them, rubs his head and says “Good Baby!”

Brian- He is learning the different ways to read a book to tell the story. He now “reads” to everyone by telling what he sees in the pictures He can count to 100.

The kids wanted to help dad with the dishes!
