Update

I have had a problem with fuzzy pictures lately. I have taken pictures of the girls at so many fun things, but they are all too blurry to post. So I will post a couple even though they are blurry.

Christiana participated in a Geography Bee at school yesterday. (She is the second from the right in the picture) She was one of 8 children to participate. She qualified by winning the contest in her class. I was so proud of her for being brave enough to be up in front of almost the whole school (grades 3-6) and try to answer very difficult questions. Out of the 21 questions that were asked, only 3 were answered correctly. It made for a quick competition, because none of the kids could answer the questions. She was competitng against 4th, 5th, and 6th graders. Even though she didn't win, I hope she will be able to participate again next year.

Here is sweet Julia. She is getting bigger everyday. Her hair is still curly and is now most of the way down her back. Her vocabulary is amazing for a 3 year old--she sounds more like her 6 year old sisters than her 3 year old friends. But that is probably because she spends 95% of her time with her 6 year old sisters and doesn't have any 3 year old friends.
