Onnolee is finally pulling herself up to stand...constantly! And what a little clown! Not talking yet but what a personality!
Estuardo continues to entertain us. He dons his cowboy hat and boots and climbs up to watch the neighbor's horses out the back window. He's so cute, he even sleeps with his cowboy boots. Sometimes wearing them, and sometimes holding them like a stuffed animal. And don't try to sneak them away or he will wake up and cry!
Marisol did awesome in school, ending the year almost completely caught up with the other second graders, able to type out her homework on her braille typewriter and is mega-excited about going to camp with other visually impaired kids.
Kory got fantastic scores on all of his national tests, and made great progress in all areas. He is looking forward to scout camp, wheelchair camp, karate, and any other fun stuff he can think of over the summer.
Jesse continues to charm the girls at school and at church, and we have heard that he dances with ALL of them at church activities...ALL of them at the same time! He gets them to all join hands and dance with him!
Stew finally got to take the MCAT exam to try to get into medical school, and we are all anxiously awaiting his scores.
And I am getting ready to take my last class at University of Phoenix for my BSN degree. I am planning to travel up to Salt Lake City in July to interview for the Master's Program at University of Utah, for Pediatric Nurse Practitioner with a specialty in underserved communities and addictions. I hope to be able to work with drug-exposed newborns and their mothers some day.
Well, here are two pictures I pulled up out of the archives...the first pictures we received of Estuardo and Onnolee. I read through some of the initial emails and got all sentimental...what special gifts, as are all of our children!
