January in Central Texas

It's so funny to look over these pictures knowing it was January 3rd when taken. My kids are in shorts! It definitely gets cold here, but then a warm front comes through. We've had at least 5 warm fronts this fall/winter. Crazy!

Anyway, the kids are showing off to the camera how strong they are. Tabby had just let go.

Then they decided to play a game of chase.

Poor Tabby ended up eating dirt (no tears). It's hard to keep up with big brother sometimes.

The kids had their well checks yesterday. Tabitha is now 18 months and you already know Joshua is 3. It was a fun well check for Joshua. He was treated like a big boy. He got to stand on the big scale (as opposed to sitting on the baby scale) and was measured standing up with the piece that touches the top of your head. They way he has been measured is lying down with his head against a wall and next to a yard stick. They also checked his blood to see if he was a superhero! Dr. Albert said that if he had red blood (as opposed to green or yellow) he was a superhero. The nurse doing the finger prick said the same thing. I thought this was such a clever way to draw blood. He barely squeaked when he got pricked.

Tabitha's went well as well. She did end up with one shot. This time she sat on my lap and she barely cried. I wouldn't even call it a cry. It was more like a whimper that lasted 2 seconds. Wow! She is tough.

The final report: everyone is healthy. Thank you, God!
