Near Tradgedy

Yesterday, James and I switched iphones.  I thought I had backed up my pictures....but soon realized that only half had transferred.  Insert extremely sad face here.  So as I went about re-setting up my apps I checked my photos again....there were 4 in there.  What? where are they coming from?  The CLOUD! I've never really used the cloud and I'm still really not sure how it works, but I could not be happier that it was sending me all my pictures and videos back.  All 587 pictures/videos are now back on my phone.  I am now a cloud believer!  And decided I should be updating my blog more often in case something like this happens and the cloud fails me.

 Caitlyn's still not to sure about this snuggling thing.

 I had the girls pictures made with Misty Morris again.  They turned out SO good.  We just got the rest of them back yesterday.  I just have to figure out how to get them on here :-/

 James and Dad cut down a tree.  It looked very dangerous from inside the house.  Here he looked like one of those monkey's at the zoo though with the ropes and all.

 "Oh, that's what these are for??"  Caitlyn's hands have been working much better for her and are even helping her grab her feet!  It's amazing how much she is changing.

And here's my newest project.  I had been wanting to do this for a while, so I just went ahead and did.  I made a binder with a section each for each month.  And printed a little lesson plan that a daycare uses.  It's Christian based so it incorporates a lot of the Bible stories that I just don't remember and they based it off a book of bible stories that was $17 on amazon, so I went ahead and ordered that too.  I also have a section for sight words.  Emily has been picking them up like nobody's business.  The pre-primer list has 40 words.  So I divided them into 7 groups.  She knows the first group already, I just want to make sure she knows them well before we move on.  No need to hurry.  

So that brings on the next story.  This week when James got home from work one day, we were going to show him how many words she knew.  While I was getting the cards ready, the word "fish" was showing on the back of one of the cards and she said "fish!"  That was CRAZY!  We had never gone over that word.  The only thing we can think of is that she picked it up from "one fish two fish red fish blue fish book"  Or she's a genius :) I can't decide!
