Oh Puck!

Since I'm not really saying this outloud, I won't jinx this... but Keira has not missed a day of school since they started back in January- for being sick!  Not that she hasn't had or has a cold, but nothing major! Woo Hoo!

She has also been spitting out a LOT more sounds, which is really exciting, its usually the end sound of the word, especially two syllable words, but MUCH better.  She is also doing well with counting, signing her abc's, matching, colors, and recognizing some whole words!! I was worried she wasn't going to make any progress this year, but she has come a long way!!

We will again be participating in this years March For Babies walk in Decorah!  It will be held on Sat. May 7 at 9am at the Decorah High School. This year's Ambassador Family is Team Mann, Carly Mann is one of Keira's classmates!!  I hope if you read this you will consider donating or walking with Team Keira!!

This weekend we are heading to Cedar Rapids to go to a Hockey Game, can't wait to get out of the house!!- I hope the weather cooperates!  Take Care All!

2 Trophys-Same Day!

The boys in the house were more than excited Sunday with the big Packer Super Bowl win!
My family came over to watch it with us- it was a good game- and super FUN to be on the winning end and see the Lombardi Trophy make its way home!

In preparation for the game, we thought it was only appropriate travel to Wisconsin to pick up some party supplies, so Saturday we went to LaCrosse, hit the mall, made a stop at Woodman's then went to Olive Garden for a late lunch-YUM! Then our last stop was Wal-Mart where we picked up some football shaped Packer Balloons!  It was a fun day, and fun to get out since we were cooped up most of last week due to snow days!!

Now, we are getting ready for Valentine's Day and  I'm also trying to get my tax things together!
Nick has also been wrestling - we went to our first tournament this year on Sunday, and he came home with a trophy!  3rd place out of 3! Ha! Hey, he was stoked!
