Benjamin is getting old WAY too quickly...so quickly it was high time for his first haircut. He ended up with a cute little do, courtesy of JR.


When T was little, we called his teeth tick tacks because they were so small. Well, all his little tick tacks are making room for some serious teeth! His teeth are pleading with him to move over, even coming in over his baby ones.


Tanner's class has been studying the Roaring 20's and in conjunction held a speak easy. It was a blast to witness Tanner dancing the Charleston-kid has some moves! And, he's pretty easy on the eyes in his 20's get up!










Ready for church on the Sunday just before Valentine's Day. The girls always have to add a pinch of Diva flair with their leg pop!





Benny and Belles checking up on the neighbors. They are the eyes and ears of our neighborhood!
As you can see, life doesn't slow down. But, it is always full of fun, chaos, and momentum. Grace also went in for bloodwork on Friday and things are looking good. She is very steadily gaining strength. It looks as though her platelet condition still exists and perhaps will be something she lives with for the rest of her life, but it isn't getting worse right now and that's hopeful. So, it looks as though we can go forward with her Portacatheter removal as soon as we are comfortable with it. Grace is really nervous and doesn't want to just yet, but the doctor is concerned that leaving it in will now cause more risk than help, so we are trying to help her adjust to the idea of surgery again. We are feeling more and more comfortable letting go of living with Cancer and loving feeling more like a "normal" family....of course normal is very relative!
