Clark Planetarium!

I got to go with Ethan on his fieldtrip! They went to Clark Planetarium! It was so much fun! I loved being there with all of Ethans friends and being able to share that with him! They did a movie and everything! It was a blast! Ethan had a lot of fun with me there! He is so fun! He loves to show me off! That makes me always feel good! The movie was all about the stars and planets. They showed the kids how to find the North Star and how to find a few constellations! Then they told a story about some of the constellations. It was interesting! I had so much fun with my boy! I love him so much!

Ms. Sargent

So we have decided we LOVE LOVE LOVE Ethans teacher this year! She is so wonderful! She sees him for him and loves him for him. She has helped him be proud of himself the way he is. She sees all the good and ignores all the bad. She has taken a real interest in him. She tells him all the time how smart he is and how good he is. She has taught me to do the same! We are so sad that she isnt going to be with us next year. I hope that Ethan carries what he has learned about himself through his whole life. I hope he remembers all that she has taught him! She has been a true blessing for me and for Ethan. She has told us she wants to keep an eye on him through his years at the school. I am so glad for her and for her caring so much for him! He is truly on of a kind! We love her and love what she has done with Ethan! Thank you Ms. Sargent!!!

One Year!!!! Zachary James Reiher!

Zachary is one now! I can not believe how fast this year has gone by! He has grown and learned so much! It blows my mind how smart he is! He loves his Daddy and brother and sister. He loves to play with balls, trains, and mickey mouse! He still isnt sleeping through the night but thats okay. He loves to be outside! I leave our blinds up half way so he can look outside all day! When Daddy pulls up he gets very excited and pounds on the window! He can walk and talk a little bit. He says mama dada hi bye! I love watching him grow and learn! I love watching him play with his brother and his sister! They all get along so well! I am so grateful Zachary picked me to be his mommy! I love you Zachy man!

Elliana is growing up!

So Elliana has decided she is big enough for her to get her ears pierced. She chose her earings and everything! She was so brave! She did cry a little but then saw how beautiful the earings are and was fine! I let her pick out some earings to ear when she is done with her studs. But then at the grocery store she ended up loosing one earing. After rushing her back to the mail they told Craig he had to buy a new pair. So he did and so she now has rainbow hearts! She is doing great with them! She loves that she has her ears pierced! She has about 4 weeks left before we can change out her earings but she is okay with it! :) I had a blast with her and I am so glad she is my daughter! I love you Elliana!

11 months!

Crazy! I cant believe my Zachary is 11 months old! So much has happened! He said his first word "Daddy" and his second "Momma"! He has even taken his first steps! My baby is growing up so fast! He is so fun to have! I love his little attitude! He is like his mom and very set on things! When he wants something he wants it end of story! I have a feeling that is going to both his biggest strength and biggest weakness! He LOVES his brother and sister! He loves to play with them! His face lights up whenever he sees his daddy too! He loves to be outside and cant stand it when the kids are out there without him! I love my silly monkey and I am so grateful for him! I am so grateful for the journey it took to get here! I am so grateful that he chose me to be his mommy! I wouldnt trade it for anything! Love my calling as a mother! Zachary James 3-8-2013 Zachary James 4-6-2012

I love being around them! It was so fun! The kids had so much fun with them too! It was great to watch my kids play with Brynleigh! They love her and miss her so much! It was fun to watch them play as cousins! It was a Christmas I dont think any of us will forget!
