February/March 2013

Wow - two months. How does that happen so quickly! February. Lets just say February was all about work for PJW and myself. The second month of a new year always seems busy. (seems like January is always slow to start and you play catch up in February!) This was true for us. For the kids, the big activity for February was counting down to March - vacation! March. We went to Anna Maria Island the first week of March with the Blackburns and the Wades. It was a great time. The girls took their first plane ride and loved it. We tried gum for the ears but Chaney swallowed two pieces before mom decided she wasn't quite ready for the responsibility of gum, "maaaannn...Mom, I swallowed it AGAIN, sorry." The girls played on the beach (our back door opened directly onto the beach, the house was great), made sandcastles (and destroyed sandcastles), ate new food, and collected seashells. I think those girls (Chaney, Ki, Lola and Regan) are going to have some fun times together in the coming years. Little Finn Henry better develop some attitude or those girls are going to run him over - maybe the Blackburns will give him a running buddy soon. :) Some clips from our big time : And this one is isn't going to be anything exciting for most, I just wanted to capture it as an example of Miss Chaneys, ah em, should I say tendency to "manage" ... as Jabet told her, “thats okay Chaney, someone has to be in charge”.
