So, Once again it's been a while and there's a lot to share...
Micah- What an awesome little man he is becoming! He has recently decided that mom is not quite as cool as dad. Dad can build things, drive fast, and oh yeah he's strong too! This recent change of preference has thrilled Brandon immensely!! Micah is half-way through his kindergarten year at Humble Christian School and is excelling. He always has wonderful conduct and loves his teacher. In November he completed nationally standardized testing and scored >98% in all but one area and that one was 95%. He also scored advanced in Biblical concepts and application. I could not be more proud!! He is growing into a terrific big brother, of course they have there little tiffs, but no one else better mess with his sister. He has such a tender heart when it comes to sharing...most of the time:-) He got a go-cart for Christmas and is doing wheelies in the cul-de-sac. He has also been trying to master the art of rollerblading around the kitchen island.
Sophie- Can you say diva?!? I don't know how a tom-boy like me ended up with such a princess, but I sure am glad God gave her to me. I have really enjoyed all of the alone time I have gotten with her this school year. What a blast we have playing dress-up, painting nails, and braiding hair. One of her favorite things to do is dress-up in her cheerleading costume and make it twirl as she spins. Don't get me wrong she can hold her own when it comes to wrestling big brother. What a smart little girl she, is she wants to be in school just like Micah, and loves to sit at the lunch table and go to recess with his class, she doesn't seem to miss me much. But boy she gives the best snuggles when it's her idea. She's always the leader, never a follower. This fact makes me so proud that she will always be able to stand her ground. Her latest habit melts my heart...she always wants alone time in her room after I have scolded her, it only takes a few minutes then she comes running up to me with her big blue eyes to say "Mommy, I'm really sorry for the bad sins I've done" to which I promptly reply "I forgive you honey" and all is right with the world again.
TBA- Surprise to those of you I haven't seen or talked to in a while the Reeds are expecting a new edition. I am 25 weeks, my due date is May 9th, 2011. This child enjoys spending it's time kicking my ribs and giving me heartburn. We have decided to be surprised on the gender and the kids are divided. Can you guess who wants what? Of course Micah wants a brother and Sophie wants a sister. I say whatever God wants will make me happy. Micah and Sophie are thrilled that the new baby is coming. They are constantly patting my belly and talking to the baby. Micah likes to say "Hello in there, I love you!" At the moment he says he wants to change all the diapers, will see how long that lasts when the baby actually gets here.
