Not to be forgotten:

 We've been busy over here growing up; here are some photos that show what we've been up these past few weeks.

Chess is still a large part of our lives, Chad is still playing and improving and the boys are going strong. They go to chess club every Wednesday night with Chad but they seem to really enjoy playing with their friends who don't play. . .

Owie started wearing a real tie. It's been a few weeks of this and he is able to do it all on his own. Sniff.

This photo just slays me, it was with his DSI therapist Erica. She got him to stand without holding onto anything by starting with him leaning backwards along the wall while she blew bubbles to keep him distracted. His smile. . .no words.

The first plunge of the year, second Saturday of April; Owen, Luke, Garron and Roger. They were happy little Popsicles!

Oh my. Jackie's first bike ride. I kept turning around to make sure he wasn't scared and was smiling away then every time I even slowed down a little he frantically signed MORE!

Lily pad back in her seat, she was pretty jealous that Jack is now riding in her seat.

Chad and I went to the Phoenix concert at the Marquee in Phoenix! Awesome show!!

Just before Jack went in for his infected incision repair, passing time in THE BIG RED CAR.

Jackie just loves books. I catch him in his room daily thumbing through books. His very very favorite book is Brown Bear.
