WOW..this year is going by way too fast.

In January we celebrated Caitlin's 1st Birthday with a "Bear in the Big Blue House" party. She had such a good time. Caitlin is now 15 months old and a handful! She loves to play, run, and scream. Two of her favoite things to do are "tickle-tickle" and call for "DAD-Deeee." She has just learned how to blow kisses, and is a big climber; she can get into her highchair all by herself. She does a good job helping around the house...wiping down cabinets, sweeping the kitchen floor, and putting Daddy's dirty dishes in the sink as she empties his lunchbox when he comes home from work.

As for Brian...he has joined a group that dresses up as characters from the Star Wars movies. They dress up (Brian is a storm trooper and Caity is an Ewok) and go around to different events. Some of the various events we will be going to are the Dragon Com, which is in Atlanta Georgia, and a Wizard convention in Chicago. Brian really enjoys his new hobby and has met a great many people. The organization also does special event for kids, like wrapping presents for less forturate children, visiting hospitals, etc.

In February, Brian played in an all day concert called "Winterfest." It was soooo exciting to see him up on stage playing the guitar, and to top it off, he was on the news that night!!

As for me, I have been busy with school, Mary Kay, and Tupperware. I will finish up my class at ISU in a few months and have 6 credits toward my masters degree, and plan on taking more classes this summer.
