I haven’t posted anything since July 11. And that post was just a quickie that I wrote off the top of my head. It has been a busy summer and I cannot believe that it’s almost over. Here’s a few highlights:
In June, we went down to Missouri to visit my Mom for a few days. [...]

Preschool for Rayna
April 21st, 2009 · No Comments
Just a few days ago, on Saturday, we got Rayna signed up for preschool. We’ve decided to send her to St. John’s Creation Kids. St. John’s is our church but I will admit that this is a big step for me. Only a few years ago, I had a pretty dim opinion of any kind [...]

Rayna’s Having a Big Day
April 6th, 2009 · No Comments
Rayna is off to the doctor this morning for her three-year checkup. We’re hoping to have her tested for allergies; we’ve been convinced for a long time that she suffers from them but haven’t been able to confirm it. She gets sick every year about this time with a harsh cough, sore throat, and general [...]

Rayna and Kaylee: Looking for a Party
September 16th, 2008 · No Comments
Just a quick post about Kaylee and Rayna. Kaylee is walking more and more every day. This afternoon, she walked five or six steps, turned around 180 degrees and walked back. She’s getting more confident too. The teeth are still trying to come in and she’s been clearly not feeling well as a result. Not [...]
Catching Up
August 7th, 2008 · No Comments
Haven’t posted here in awhile. The last week has been full of fun and everything else has slid a little. Last Thursday, I went to the Kansas City Chiefs training camp to see them scrimmage with the Minnesota Vikings. It was the idea of my brother-in-law, Rod, and we went along with his two kids, [...]

We took the girls in for checkups this week. Kaylee is doing well; she weighs in at 14 pounds, 2 ounces and is 2 feet, 1 inch long. This puts her in the 50th percentile for weight and 77th percentile for height. Rayna weighed 25 lbs.pounds and is 2 feet, 11 inches [...]
Weekend
January 27th, 2008 · 1 Comment
We’re having a pretty relaxed weekend around here. Yesterday, we took the girls to Pipsqueaks to get them out of the house for awhile. Pipsqueaks is an indoor playground set up by the United Way. They have a whole gym filled with playground equipment, toys, a whole area set aside for riding toys, etc. There’s [...]
Kaylee’s First Few Days
October 17th, 2007 · No Comments
We’ve been busy the last few days getting Kaylee settled in since she and Nicole came home on Saturday. Things are going pretty well. Kaylee tends to sleep a lot during the day and get restless at night but it’s nothing we can’t handle.
Rayna has handled this really well. She was a little unsettled for [...]
What Rayna’s Reading
September 28th, 2007 · No Comments
In the last few weeks, Rayna has become very fond of books. Before, she was interested in them the same way she would be interested in any toy–something to chew on, throw, touch, etc. Now, she actually looks through the pages and seems to understand that each one has its own content. [...]
