Just so everyone knows we have started a new webpage that we can easily share all of our fun pictures. The address is daichfamilypictures.shutterfly.com. It requires a log-in and password so if you would like it just e-mail us and let us know.

The last couple of months have blown by so fast! We have had such a great time even though nothing too big and important has happened. The boys are getting so big. Braxton has been learning to ride his big boy bike. It is his favorite activity, and one that Curt and I have loved to watch him learn. Cayden is doing well also. He is finally starting to talk a little more, and it is fun to see him learn so much. It has been a long road so far, but we are encouraged by his recent interest in learning.

Curt and I were able to get away in March and went down to Zions for a weekend. It was the first time I was able to go down there, and I loved the beauty of it. We are looking forward to starting soccer again this week, and have that outlet from our normal life. We are all looking forward to a fun summer, with a couple trips planned. We hope everyone is doing well!

The holidays are over!!! We had a great Christmas in Seattle. It was a much needed break for everyone. The boys loved spending time with their grandma and grandpa as well as their cousins! Curt enjoyed not having school or work, and I enjoyed being able to pawn my kids off whenever I wanted! Curt and I even made it out on a few dates! We also learned that with the right show Cayden isn't a complete nightmare on the airplane. Braxton was super excited when Santa remembered to visit him at grandma and grandpa's. He even remembered to bring the firetruck that he asked for.

Of course we have started back in the swing of things. Curt is half way through his classes for this block and we look forward to the end. This is the last block that he will have to take two classes at once which will be nice. We feel like we are finally able to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Cayden is getting pretty big. He is even in the 30% for his weight, go Cayden! We are still waiting for him to start walking. He loves to walk around on his knees, but anything else is like pulling teeth. I never knew a one year old could be so stubborn! If anyone has a suggestion for feeding a picky eater please let me know!

Braxton is now three!!! I can hardly believe it! He is so smart and so strong headed. He knows all his letters, he knows how to spell his name, he knows mom, dad, cat, dog, and a couple other words, about 3 weeks ago he even asked me to teach him how to read. So now I have to try to figure out how to teach a three year old to read. Lucky me! We had a friends party for Braxton that he loved! We gave him a superhero themed party. We got him a new bed with superhero bedding, which he thinks is the coolest thing ever. The first night he slept in the bed we asked if he wanted his "holey blanky" but he wanted nothing to do with it. It is so much fun to see how much he is learning and growing.

We hope that everyone is doing well, and that you have a great new year!
