Bi-ped Motion in the Lee House

John is starting to take steps! So fun to catch some of the first ones on video!

Now We're Six

We had a great day for Daniel last weekend when he turned six. Hard to believe that he is six! The pictures tell it all. We all slept well that day.

The Passion - By Daniel

Sometimes I think Daniel is a priest in the making. Happy Holy Week!

Sisters Celebrate!

A few weeks ago John and I headed to Houston for a bachelorette party and bridal shower for my sister Katie who is getting married in a month. We had a great trip and it was wonderful to spend time with family. Karaoke was a big part of the bachelorette party and we are all really fantastic singers. Well, fantastically enthusiastic as you can see in our video.

Katie and James are the perfect match! We can't wait to celebrate with them in just a few weeks!

Starring John!

Looking back at some of my older posts, I realized how under represented John is in videos here. Hope you enjoy this one from back in February. Since then he has started saying many more 'words' and is busy as ever. His favorite things are getting in trash cans, emptying cabinets, attacking appliances like the dishwasher and refrigerator, and his brothers. He is a speed crawler and can stand on his own. No steps yet, but I'm sure they are coming. John has two teeth and loves to eat everything!

We have visited the doctor a lot in 2014. Between ear infections, strange appearances of hives, routine check ups, and allergies, we have been there numerous times. I believe that John has an egg allergy and is allergic to penicillin and sulfa drugs. We are getting that checked out next week. Since eliminating egg from his diet, he seems much better. No more vomiting after meals, breaking out in rashes, and the eczema is starting to disappear.

John is really quick to learn new tricks. He is starting to play with shape sorters and to make the toys light up or play music. He seems to like the way things sound. He usually picks up two toys and bangs them together a few times to see how they sound. Oh yes I almost forgot, John has a thing for paper. He devours books and snatches any piece of paper he can find and promptly eats it! I can see the wheels in his little head turning...is that paper hanging off the edge of the table, yes it is, I'm going to get that paper no matter what it takes... yummy paper! Smile!

He is really a fun and pretty easy going baby to have around!
