Update....

*Max is busy w/ school, and has a new teacher named Miss Margie
*Mia can fold her arms for the prayer
*Max had his 4 yr. appt and weighs 40 lbs and is 42 inches tall.....he also had to get 5 shots!
*I am still unpacking....3 more boxes
*We are sooooo excited for CHRISTMAS
*Jay has been busy with work, but was able to go hunting with my dad and brothers and got a buck....i have this small feeling that I will never have a "hunting free fall again"
*Clint and Kellie moved to Cortez CO, and they only live 1 hour away.....smile
*I am almost done with CHRISTMAS shopping
*My kids drive me crazy some days....I had to hide from Mia the other day, you know crouched down behind my bed
*Max is pretty sure that we have to leave Santa "Christmas balloons." So I guess "Christmas balloons" are going to be our new tradition.
*Today I watched Max and Mia throw dirt clods at each other and then LAUGH really hard
*Mia is a maniac walker....I can hear her little feat pitter patter on the floor all day....and when I hear it, that is my que to HIDE!
*Jay is convinced that we are turning all of his deer meat into jerky, today when I broke the news that it was "his responsibility" he looked at me in silence
*We love our new ward.............and are counting down the days until Mia is 18 months(144 days to be exact)
*I'm pretty sure I have sent more emails today than I ever have in my life
*We are happy, and enjoying this holiday season.....and oh ya, we can't wait for CHRISTMAS

It sounds like you are all doing so good. I can't believe that Mia is walking, she can't be that old already.
