Sorry it's been so long

Oh I am not liking this predicament that I can't update my blog at work. I think best early in the morning and have time when I first get to my office. Oh well. I guess I'll have to just try harder to update at home.

Ryland - He has developed a big interest in writing his letters and numbers lately. He enjoys getting a piece of paper to write all the names of all the people we know. He's really taking off in understanding letters and how they form words. Even as I type, one of Leland's students is helping him type words on the computer. He's also just so much fun. He is constantly making us laugh and brightening our days.


Raylee - She is really taking off lately. She is SOOO close to walking. She will stand all by herself and has even taken a few steps chasing my hands. It won't be long before she realizes how much quicker walking is. She has also said a few words. Cat is the most noticable. She looked at Pumpkin the other morning and said "cat." Then yesterday I was walking with her in my office and she proclaimed "cat" while we passed the stuffed bobcat. (Yes, my office is full of dead animals. My boss is an avid hunter.) She is getting more opinionated lately, but we are attempted to keep that in check.

Lauren and I began working on our poodle skirts for the Fabulous Fifties luncheon at our church on the 14th. We are going to be so cute. Our singing group is sounding pretty good also. It's going to be lots of fun.

Leland got on a "our house is full of junk and we are going to clean it out" kick last weekend. We did successfully go through our kitchen last night. We found things we had forgetten we had. I don't know if she is glad about this or not, but Leland's sister gets first dibs on our stuff. There is lots of good stuff in the pile, we just don't use it enough to justify it taking up space.

You need to look at Lauren's blog to see pics of our kids at the homecoming parade and football game. We had a great time last Friday.

Well, we are just busing doing the usual Mallett things. I hope everyone is well and enjoying life.

I have more sewing pics but blogger won't let me post them. Maybe another day.
