We're Back

After a technological break down, I'm back. My laptop's charger gave up and the battery is so old that it won't hold a charge so I had to get a new charger. That took me an entire month and only happened thanks to Joe. I've also misplaced my camera (and I think it's permanent this time). So for the past month, I've been using the big ol' camera and the big ol' desktop. Neither one of those are nearly as convenient as my little laptop or little camera so I only use them when I absolutely must.

So here's what's been going on . . .

Allison has been having a great time in gymnastics class.



In case you're wondering what on earth I dressed my child in for her gymnastics class, they were allowed to wear their Halloween costumes to class today and she is a cat this year.



And here's what Sara has been up to . . .

She has been perfecting her mess making skills. Check out these awesome couch decorations. Thank goodness it was washable crayon!



And, now she is SERIOUS about doing everything she see's her sister doing.





She not only wants to do what Allison does, but she wants to be able to say what Allison says, too. She's saying a couple of phrases now like, "Mommy read book" and "I want juice."
By the way, reading books is her absolute favorite thing. And just as much as she likes to have them read to her, she also likes to "read" them her self.



I just brought her in for her 15 mo. check up today and she is in the 75th Percentile for height and 25th for weight (which is good for the Hamilton girls, Allison is only three pounds more than her and she's two years older!) .

In other family news, we are going to have another baby! I'm about three months pregnant now and will be having the baby around the beginning of May.

Love how you just threw the baby news out there like after thought :) And what's up with you producing super genius babies?! First Al with, well, EVERYTHING, now Sara with talking? I mean, Jack tries to say "All done." and "Hello" and "Love you." but the only way I know that is because I spend all day everyday with him.

Meow, Allison! Love the costume. Good job with the phrases Sara...and the beautiful artwork! And Courtney, at least Jack says "love you"....Lily will repeat almost anything we say but for some reason will NEVER even attempt to repeat "love you"...and we say it to her A LOT!!
