Sorry again for the delay in posting pictures. We've had a busy winter, as you will see below. We also haven't ventured into getting another computer, so I continue to post this through Ben's work computer.

Ben is working hard as our church continues it's three year plan. My work is experiencing the downfalls of the economy... less jobs, no affordable insurance, high medical costs, and more cancer diagnoses than ever.

Karis is half way through Kindergarten and learning at a very fast pace. She especially enjoys art and music. Timothy is growing like a weed. He's over 21 lbs. and just got into a "big boy" car seat this week. He loves to "click" his tongue, eat anything he can fit into his mouth, and make attempts to pull himself up to prepare for crawling.

We were able to attend a gymnastics meet at UW La Crosse this winter. A member of our church, Kasey Crawford, is one of the coaches. The above picture is of Ben and Karis at the meet.

Timothy enjoyed watching gymnastics too!
Karis loves trying winter sports. Most recently, she's been ice skating. She did really well and enjoyed the time with Dad.

There's been a lot of inside days since we've had a cold winter. During some downtime, Karis wanted to make sure that Timothy has been able to enjoy her iPod. I'm not sure what he thinks about the pink thing in his ear that plays "Miley Cyrus."

We'll just call this one "toothless." Karis lost three teeth in a week. The tooth fairy is going broke in our house!

We've also had quite a bit of sickness. Karis and Timothy like to "cuddle" during the sick times.
