Janey-Janey broke her leg 2 weeks ago falling down the stairs but it hasn't slowed her down. She has a cute little pink cast. She crawled the first week but last Sunday figured out how to walk on it and has gone full force ever since. We can learn alot from a 1 year old about how to deal adversity. She is such a sweet girl. She loves pencils and pens and so far hasn't done too much damage to walls. She loves to play with her big sisters and brothers. She loves her sippy cup full of milk and a cracker or rice cake in hand. She finally hit the 20lb. mark so now faces forward in her car seat. She is a great sleeper both day and night, which mommy is very thankful for. Her curls keep getting bigger and softer and her smile is contagious!

Hunter-Last Friday we went to the Draper Temple open house. My favorite room was the Celestial room. After we went to Ty Davis' house to play. I was sad because Jake got sick and couldn't play with us. I was Steve Young for our school Wax Museum. I got to wear my friends BYU uniform with pads and a helmet. It was really tight on me. I had a hard time standing still when the people came through to see us. I kept changing position. I liked getting to tell my class about Steve Young after. I like to play basketball. We won our first two games. I made one basket. We lost our last two. I am a really good defender and yesterday I made lot of assists.

Katy-I have been going to Lakeview Academy, it is a charter school. I started there the second week of January. I have made some new friends, but I miss my old friends at Harvest Elementry. I got checked out on Friday and got to go see my brothers in the wax museum. When I was there I saw my old class coming through the gym. They were excited to see me and it made me feel really good because then I knew they really did miss me. At my new school it is fun because I get short day on Friday so I get to come home and play with my mom and sisters because the other kids are still at school. I also like that do lots of hands on things and lots of science. A few days ago we got to have Jr. Engineering Day. That is where Utah State brought different hands on modules for the kids to do activities with and learn science. My favorite one was the one where you pulled or pushed syringes and it made a robot's arm move.
Also, last Friday me and my family got to go to the Draper Temple open house. My favorite room was the Celestial room. It made me feel the spirit a lot. And now I know that when my parents go to the temple I can imagine where they are.

Jacob-This week at school I was in a wax museum. That is where all the third graders dress-up as a famous person from history. We stood in the gym and didn't move while all the moms and dads and school kids come and walk around and see us. I had to make a poster tha told about Theodore Roosevelt and then I dressed in my suit and tie with a vest I got from Grandpa Moon and had a mustache and old glasses. It was really hard to stand still for 2 hours. I am playing basketball. The name of my team is the Cougars. We won twice in a row and then lost twice in a row. Our game yesterday was really close, neck to neck. They won by 6 points in the end. I love playing and we played really really hard. I think when we went to the temple open house it was really cool and I felt the spirit. My favorite room in the whole temple was the room where you do baptisms for the dead. It was so cool.

Emily-I love to go swimming. I got to go with my friend Chloe and eat dinner at the swimming pool. I love to play with friends. I am a Girl Scout. I really like being a Girl Scout and I get to sell cookies. It is fun and I like to be a part of my country. My goal is to sell 100 boxes of cookie. My goal is also to make the world a better place. I had 100 day at school. I glues 100 puzzle pieces on a cardboard "E". I got to put it in the hall so everyone could see it. Monday we celebrated Chineese New Year's. I got to eat rice with chop sticks. It was really fun. We got to make dragon masks. It was really fun because I put it over my face. This morning I made breakfast for my dad but he couldn't eat it because it was fast Sunday.

Tubes

Janey went in this morning for tubes in her ears. We have been putting it off for 3 months because she is so little. She came through like a trooper. The doctor said she cleaned out a lot of scar tissue and infections and puss. I was thankful we went ahead and got the tubes. Hopefully now her hearing won't be effected and she won't get as many ear infections. She has such a high tolerance of pain it amazes me what a good baby she has been through all the infections over the past 7 months.
Our grass is growing and we are so excited. Every day it grows a little taller. It still pretty sparce but filling in nicely. I even got a few bushes planted yesterday. Love the end of season sales. You can pick up bushes and trees for practically nothing.
