Last night Callie sat at the table for the first time. She has been climbing out of her high chair and begging for food at the table for a while, so we thought we'd try her in a booster seat. She really thought she was something special! It seems like she learns a new word each day. She has already mastered Mama, Daddy, cheese, juice, bear, ball, here you go, and no. Callie is a big eater, so it is not surprising that her first words after Mama and Daddy were about food. We are having her picture taken on Thursday by a friend of ours who is a local photographer. He does terrific portraits, so I am really excited. If I can, I'll try to get one of Connor and Callie together. But, you all saw how our Christmas picture turned out, so I won't hold my breath! 
Connor found Jason's hat on Sunday and put together a really special chuch outfit. It consisted of this hat, his regular church clothes, one of those really fluffy slipper socks, and regular sock, and sunglasses. We made him take off the hat and sunglasses before we went in, but the rest of his outfit must have been impressive because his Sunday school teacher had him play Jesus in a skit. Who knew Jesus wore fluffy socks? Connor has been playing outside every day. He loves to dig in the dirt and look for bugs. Jason has been working on a treehouse, and Connor has already told us he will be sleeping up there this summer. In fact, we were tearing out a bathroom vanity the other day and Connor saw what we were doing and asked "Is that for my treehouse bathroom?" Clearly he has delusions of grandeur about this thing!
We are getting ready to go to Florida at the end of the week. While we are gone, we are getting our kitchen countertops replaced, along with the floors in two of our bathrooms. It will be fun to come back and see all the work that has been done.
