March

 

Ok, here's a recap of our March.  Overall, the weather has been beautiful here this winter and we've spent a lot of time outside.  Leah gave up on asking for snow and has been playing with sidewalk chalk and riding her tricycle.  (However, I think it's snowed 4 times in April already!) 

Look at the picture of our family that Leah drew.  She'd just learned to draw a person, so I was amazed when she showed me this picture of our family with four different sized people!

Here's my new favorite picture of our girls!

Leah spends a lot of time taking care of her "kids" - she has babies and big girls.

Rebekah took her first steps on March 17th!  Leah and I were there, but Matt was at work, and it took a day or two before he got to see her walk.  She's making progress, but it's slow, and walking it not her primary mode of transportation yet.

I realized that by the time Leah was Rebekah's age, she was already helping me in the kitchen.  So, I started training a new kitchen "helper."  She helped me make pizza the other day and loved chewing on the wooden spoon and banging on it.

We got official word that the Air Force is sending Matt to the school in Indiana, so we went house hunting over spring break.  It was fun to see our new town and a house to live in for the 3 years we'll be there.  It has 3 bedrooms and and office for Matt to study in (with double doors that close!)  It has a little more room than we have now and a nice yard that we're really excited about!  It's also only 8 minutes from the engineering building, which is much quicker than the commute he has now.  Riding his bike will even be an option.  We really feel like God provided just the right house for us for this next adventure, and it will make leaving Colorado a little bit easier.

And one more of our favorite mountain, Pike's Peak.  Over our last year here, I'm taking a picture for each season and am looking forward to putting them up in a frame once we're living in the cornfields instead of the mountains!

Krista, Great update! So glad to see you guys have a new home to move into and an assignment. How exciting!!! I can't believe you have two walkers now! The girls are too cute and yes, Leah's drawing is very impressive. I'm going to have to teach Lucas how to draw people too. I guess I never really thought to show him that. Sounds like you all are doing great. We miss you but are so happy for blogs!
