What... She can't be!

I often get lost in my own world. It could be something simple like working on the computer or as complicated as watching television.  After I found myself conscious again I look over and Kierra is standing up holding onto a laundry basket.

 I was surprised because she just learned to crawl around the room.  I hurried and grabbed the camera because I thought this would be a one time occurrence and then she would realize her age and go back to just crawling.  But to my astonishment it was more than just this one time occurrence.  Through out the day she would climb and stand holding anything and everything.  My biggest surprise came when I was sitting on the ground next to the couch when she climbed up my leg.

 I liked that because it was like a hug, but then she looked at me with a crazy look in her eye and then stood straight up, letting go of my leg and balancing there for a good second, before she started to fall backwards.  "What the Heck" I said in my head, but the only thing that came of my mouth was, "WHAT!".  I caught her from falling that long one foot to the floor and held her there.  I proceeded to call Heather's name and tell her what had happened, but I don't think she believes me.  

Um, she shouldn't be standing this early... should she?  Before I know it she will be flirting with boys.

They love, me.... they love me not....

I wanted to see if you could tell which parent the kids like the best... I keep telling Heather I am the favorite... You be the judge.

Phil saw his shadow.

The snow is beautiful out of our window.  However, it has stopped us from making it to church another day.  I was excited to go to church today.  We will spend it at home relaxing and reading books.  I am use to the snow and cold being raised in Idaho, but Heather is not.  She is a trooper suffering through these Iowa winters.  They are a lot different than in Idaho.  It is Humid here and so when it is cold it is very cold.  We are enjoying our home and how warm it is.  

We had someone look at our home the other day and the realtor said that they were interested.  We haven't had an offer yet, but we are praying we will soon.  We are excited to move onto the next step of our life.  We have a possible job offer, but we won't say too much about it until it is more solid.  I should know by the 15th of February.  

Well, that is us... Talk to you when something more exciting is happening.

Kierra's Laugh

Jeremy is the only one that can make Kierra Laugh consistently. We think it is very cute.
