We've had snow!

Kali and Kaci enjoying the snow on their snow day!



Kali just kicking back after a snowball fight



Kaci with snow crusted in her hair and very happy to be inside after the snowball fight



Kali discovered she could be in a makeshift igloo.





All three K kids trudging through the snow.

The kids were having a blast, a snowball fight started in very good humor until Kole got mad. So he punched Kaci in the face and he had to spend the rest of the day in the house. It took him that long to apologize.

Kole has been doing pretty good at home. He is starting to act out at school a little bit. So, he is bringing home yellow lights. I had never seen one before. LOL Kali and Kaci always followed the rules to the T. They did not want us to be upset with them. Kole doesn;t seem to get it.

I tried a new method on him today. He loves to talk, constantly and interupt conversations and just be disruptive. So I tried a method passed on by a parent who also has a little motor mouth. If Kole interupts he is not allowed to talk for 5 minutes. So we tried this. He couldn't make it even 2 minutes before he opened up and interupted. So we started the five minutes over. Finally after 20 minutes he had 5 full minutes with no talking. Of course he was making faces at me when he thought no one was looking, but Boyd caught him and told him that was unacceptable. So it stopped real fast. So far today, no more interuptions and the talking is down a bit. It is not constant. And he actually talking about something, not just to hear his voice. LOL


Mia has grown like a weed. Here are some before and after pics.

The girls used to be able to hold her in their laps. Now they can barely lift her!

We've let Tasha come in occasionally. With so much snow coming down, I don't think her coat could have kept her dry and warm
