What's up

So I haven't been blogging much lately- mostly because I haven't been taking many pictures. I think we just haven't been doing many exciting things. Maybe we will plan an adventure! Anyway- I thought I'd give an update on what the kids have been doing-
Isaac is learning to read! He's doing really well... sounding out letters and turning them into words. He loves his new skill and wants to spell out EVERYTHING. It's so exciting to to watch him soak all this up! We are also trying to work on potty training- it's not going so well. I'm pretty sure he will be reading chapter books before we get him out of diapers. Delia is finally talking- real words in English out loud. Mostly "hi" and "bye" and "ball." Every once and a while she graces us with "Mama" or "Bop-Pa!" (Poppa). Some times she screeches "IIII-EEEE!" while pointing at Isaac, so I'm assuming that is her name for her brother. I'm working on turning it into "Ike."Yeah! The snow is almost all gone here, and we have been playing outside in the backyard and our neighborhood park a ton. Isaac wants to ride his bike all the time. Delia is a total playground daredevil. She runs around completely fearless, flinging herself head-first down giant slides, climbing to the top of the highest jungle gyms in seconds. It is ... exhausting!

Beyond the kids... a couple weeks ago Matt gave the sermon at our church. Can you believe they let this guy up front?? He did an awesome job!
