The Three Jo(e)'s & a Rose: April 2008

I first want to thank everyone for making Makayla's birthday party so special. She loved that everyone came to her house to see her. Sunday night at about 10:30 she started singing happy birthday to herself. Her version of happy birthday is pretty funny, she starts with happy birthday but then somehow transitions into twinkle, twinkle little star into the ABC's.

Now that the weather has gotten to be a bit better Makayla and I have been spending a couple hours in the evening each day outside trying to learn how to ride her bike. She didn't quite understand that you have to pedal to get the bike to move but is learning quickly. She has also been helping me in the garden. She will dig holes looking for worms and when she finds one she'll play with it for a minute then tell me the worm is sleeping now. In other words she killed it!

As for Abby she is teething pretty good now. She has her bottom two teeth and one of her top ones is about to pop so she drooling like crazy. Still not crawling yet but very close. She'll get up on all fours and kinda rock back and forth then shoot forward.

You may all know but Gina has been offered a new position at LBL (Allstate) and will start this coming Monday. She has worked very hard for them and now is set to move even higher within the company. If you talk to her wish her good luck!
