We are alive! And very well. Loving how 2012 is shaping up so far....healthy and happy with lots of fun things coming up including two family weddings, and a fourth little sister finalizing her arrival plans.  These are beloved "winter" months here in NC. I love the fact that we can play outside every day.  Following are some individual skill set demos of the girls we got this morning. Since poor Hannah has two more years until kindergarten and preschool is so darn expensive, a friend recommended this book to me to initiate her reading skills. It has been so fun to watch her little mind work. And the rest of us are just surviving as best we can and trying to get a firm hold on our basic needs until our new little one gets here. Without further ado:
