OK everyone! I stink at blogging! Evie is now 5 months and is helping me type this message. She rolls everywhere and one of these days I need to have her weighed. She is growing out of her 9 month clothes already! Didi now knows all of her letters and the sounds most of them make. If I make the phonetic sound, she can spell out simple words! She never ceases to amaze us all! Matt just finished his regular school year and will head back for summer session on June 2nd. He completed several of his goals and will start on new ones this fall in Kindergarten! He too can spell out familiar words and surprised his teachers when he spelled out "teamwork" on 2 separate occasions on Wednesday! Meanwhile, John is in Chicago! We are heading home to the burbs of Chicago where John is going to start a practice. He should have his licence around June 5th and hopes to have all the equipment ready to go in the office location at that time. We are actually heading to Braidwood, IL which is where John graduated from High School and spent time there before his mission. He is already working on our website (www.bigjohngentlehands.com) and will open Gentle Hands Chiropractic sometime after his licence clears. I will let everyone know when the website is up an running. We will also have pics of the office and Big John hard at work! I am just maintaining the home and prepping it for sale sometime this summer. John will remain in Braidwood for the next few months and once everything is prepared, we will move the rest of the family up there! We are looking forward to being close by friends and my sister who will be downtown Chicago this fall for Law School. All our love! Mandi
ps-I will try to get some new pics up once John comes back with my camera!
