Hello all,
Katie informed it was time to update again so here goes...

Rebekah just had her 4 month check up. It is hard to believe she is that old already. She is luaghing and rolling over. The Dr. was pleased with her growth. She is 13 lbs and 25 inches long. So she is right at the average.
Kisiah is talking up a storm and will even talk to strangers. She loves nursery and runs there. A first for our kids. She loves to say the prayer and is always asking us if we are ready to pray. she is very tenderhearted and if any one cries she is crying with them and hugging and kissing them to feel better. She gave Kate a fat lip and me a black eye by swinging a music recorder as she walked!
Arika informed me she can skip bars on the monkey bars. She has three wiggly teeth but doesn't want them to fall out. Her smile is crooked as the top two are hanging by one side. She is excited for Halloween. She wants to be Sharpay from High School Musical again. Works for me. She is home today with a cold.
Kate is learning sign language and tennis right now through school. She really pushes herself. Her teachers all told me how impressed they are by her. She could talk college classes on Saturdays but we decided not right now, but maybe later. She is excited to do the Primary program in a few weeks. She finished Twilight!
Ben is almost done with football. They had their last home game and won 24-6. He has improved and kept his grades up so that he can play. He enjoyed going to Priesthood meeting with Bart. He is trying hard to do what he has learned. I enjoy going to mutual each week with him and he always looks out for me first. Tomorrow we are going to a nursing home to decorate for Halloween.
Bart is busy with remodels. He also has been on some bids too so hopefully it will just keep going. He got his sand rail tuned and we went out Saturday for my birthday. We went last year but it broke before I got a ride, so he was trying to redeem himself! At first it wouldn't start when we got there so he was really frustrated. But then a friend looked at it and noticed a wire had come off on the drive over. Once that was back on it was good to go. It was a nice warm day at the beach. Definitely redeemed himself.
I am at home and at mutual. seems like I am always busy but I guess that is because of the kids and not really me. I always get quite the comments when I am out with my kids. I always think of mom and dad and smile. I am enjoying the young years. I also like being with my pre teens. Parent teacher is tomorrow so we'll see if that changes!
We are really blessed. Hope every one is enjoying life. We love you all.
Bart, Heather, Ben, Kate, Arika, Kisiah and Bekah
