Dear Blog, January was busy

Dear Blog,

I know it was a long time ago, but I'd like to catch you up on the past year. I mean, I've left you in the dark for so long, and so much has happened. Here are the highlights of January, 2017:

Me, on January 1st, 2017


Kat the cat (who joined us in August 2016) was usually found
keeping my neck warm. This is her favorite place to lay.

My extended family celebrates Christmas in January.
This year we were only missing two of our boys! Rob and Aaron
weren't able to join us. We missed them! It was great to have nine
of our kids together at one time! 

Audrey finally learned to smile for the camera! 
(sadly, this skill was short-lived.) 

Angela got her dress for the
upcoming Tim Tebow Night To Shine prom.

And Axel picked his first Tuxedo! 

Angela and Axel spent a lot of time with friends,
attending dances and other great events.

Axel took a cooking class where he learned
10 different ways to cook eggs! He really enjoyed the class. 

Axel was really busy this month, and played 
adaptive floor hockey too!

I made another attempt to get our 
medication distribution system under control. This one 
finally worked. 

Angela enjoyed another season with her
adaptive cheer team. 

These boys...So handsome!

These two waiting for the bus. Audrey is not 
a fan of being bundled up.
