Bits & Pieces from November 2010 to February 2011

Well, it took a snowed in day and a bum hip to get me to update the blog! 

Holidays:
We celebrated Thanksgiving with Ken's family at our house this year and we did so with a couple of extra kiddos in the mix!  Ella and Isaac, our new niece and nephew that joined their big sisters, Leah and Logan, in September.  It was wonderful having them visit our home for the first time to celebrate all we are thankful for and to celebrate Kenny's birthday.

Christmas at the Knight house!











About the kids:
Josey is getting all A's and B's, is in Honors Choir, is taking voice and piano lessons, is taking lyrical and ballet technique classes and was in the Nutcracker in December and is currently in Sleeping Beauty (March 19, 2011...let me know if you want tickets).
After the big show!  Josey as a Russian!

Kenny has been in football, cub scouts and wrestling.  He loves it!!  He's doing well in school.  He is still having troubles reading and spelling, but they are working with him closely.  I even have meetings with the principal, teacher, reading specialist and social worker every 6 weeks to discuss his progress.  He has a tutor at school and we are working with him at home.  His math is excellent, but the reading part is a little slow, which they say is normal with kids that started with a speech delay.

Daddy was the coach!  Were they listening??
 We had an addition to our family just before Christmas.  A new puppy named Daisy.  She's a cutey pie!!
Little Daisy Doo Doo!!

Joker loves her too!!

Saje, old girl!  She is a doing well except for a bum leg and hip issues :(
We had a HUGE winter storm on February 2, 2011 that left us all at home! The kids had fun playing outside, playing video games and board games with Dad and Mom and enjoying the day together. I hoped to get some cleaning done but my hip....what can I say, can't get up out of the chair... so much for 3 days at the gym...what did I do??


Yes...Daisy wears a coat :)  You can't see her otherwise.  Ha!


Rough and tumble in the snow!




I'll try to be a bit more up to date next time...but you know how it is :) 

Love to you all!!
