Oh my, I can't believe it has been almost a year with out any updates, only videos! Anyway, here's a quick update: E learned to ride a two-wheel bike, started kindergarten, swimming lessons, and reading. She is currently starting to read chapter books. I can't believe how she has grown!
L started preschool at our neighborhood school last spring, and continued there this fall, through December, but we decided to send her to a different preschool because . . . in August she received a cochlear implant, and the new school has a huge focus on learning to listen and talk. She misses her old class and friends and interpreter, but loves going to her new school. She's saying many new things, and even E is excited because 'she'll be easier to play with when she talks!' She still depends on ASL for most of her communication, but her listening skills are coming right along.
T is growing up too, he is now 17 months old, and is so funny! He doesn't say many words, but signs like crazy - that's normal for kids who are surrounded by sign language, so no worries. He wants to be as big as his sisters but just doesn't know how to get there yet.
Matthew is in his last semester at BYU for his masters degree. He submitted two papers to different symposiums and has been accepted to present at both, and has been taking care of his family and other responsibilities.
I am just here, taking care of my family and living one day at a time. Surprise! We are expecting our fourth child the end of March! Don't know if it is a boy or girl, but all the kids are excited to meet the new baby.
That's about all for now!
