Levi is wearing undies and potty training. I hadn’t pushed the issue..one I didn’t want to clean up major messes and two he told me he likes his diapers all the time. On Wed, when he got out of the bath, he said I have to go potty and he went to the potty chair and went. He has been going ever since. We have had a few mishaps, like not getting undies down fast enough, but no major accidents. I am so happy! He is doing great. I knew once he decided he was ready he would just do it! It was definitely a tender mercy from the Lord. He knew I couldn’t handle much more on my plate!

Potato Gun
Rylee got to shoot the potato gun that Ryan and Casey built. I wish I could show you how far the potatoes actually go! You lose sight of them before they even start to drop. I tried to video it, but it doesn’t so it justice.
Visitors
You rarely see one bull moose..but three together is crazy..they even locked horns and fought a little bit!
Nature Boy
I took this picture of Macih to match the ones of the other kids that were done last fall. Not perfect…but not too shabby!
Super Helpers!
Miss Peggy gave Levi two Super Hero costumes for his belated birthday..only Levi calls himself a super helper! It is very cute!
Ranger Rides!
Ryan got a new toy…a ranger. It has been lots of fun! We go on rides as a family…we strap Macih in the front in his car seat. We all have a great time!
I picked the girls up from school on a sunny day

Fishing Fun!
I stole this pic from Casey. He took if while he was out fishing with Ryan and my dad. They had quite the adventure. They almost ran out of gas and had to go to Seldovia to get more. They got there after hours and had to call someone out to come open up and fill them up. Then on the way in, they lost a motor and went 9 miles an hour to get back to the harbor. They got home at 5 AM. Despite all the bad things, they laughed and laughed and had a good time!
Russian River Hike
Most of the family hiked the Russian River Trail. We didn’t go due to a new baby, but Rylee was invited to go with them. They got to see Salmon jumping up the falls. They had fun! I hope to go next time!
Twiners!
Our neighbor and Rylee’s buddy, McKenna. I am so thankful for older friends and cousins that my kids have that treat them with respect, love them, take good care of them, and are a good example...when they could be like other older kids and be too cool to care!
