On our way to Florida!

Well, I just wanted to say good-bye. We are escaping from the cold and heading to Florida for the next 5 weeks while Skylar does a rotation down there...pretty sweet. My parents are letting us stay in their condo just outside of West Palm Beach and we are so excited to hangout on the beach. Kylee has been talking about it non-stop and just can't wait. We absolutely love it down there as most of you know. However, we won't have a computer for the most part so we will update you when we get back and I'm sure Alexis will be crawling by then. She has an incredible reach and already wants whatever Kylee has. She has accomplished the scoot and we tried to catch it on video quickly since we know she will be crawling soon.

She is doing great and we are amazed at how quickly she is filling in the gap. She is 10 months old but to us only 7.

Innocence of childhood

Kylee's tummy has been bothering her off and on the last two days and today when she told me her tummy was hurting again I replied, "You must have a little stomach bug." She looked at me like I was nuts and said, "What's a stomach bug?" As I began to explain our pun on words she quickly said, "Like when we have butterflies in our tummy" It is just amazing how fast kids pick up on stuff. We explained this phrase to her after some of the rides at Hershey Park and after I said it a few weeks ago on our way to church when I was about to start my new calling ("Mom, you can't have butterflies in your tummy...that's silly). She now understands it...I think, and has begun using the phrase herself. I just love this girl to death and have so much fun chatting with her every day.
