January in Review

January has proved to be a fun and busy month.  It's a little hard to get back in the swing of things after Christmas and New Years.  We started off January with a new sport!  Izzy decided to try her hand at basketball!  Wes & Stephanie Gallagher were coaching...so along with Cassie, Shayla was also playing.  I think that sealed the deal.  I am so proud of her for trying something new.  She is doing GREAT.  I'm not biased or anything, but I think their team is awesome.

1st Game

GO #5 - Lady Bees

We've had some nice days in January...the boys take advantage of it by digging up any landscaping we have left.  Yes, our yard looks a little redneck, but look how much fun they are having!!

The Lintz family was not spared by sickness this January.  I had the flu along with Gerren and Josh.  Gerren and I were stuck together for about 3 days.  Wherever I was, he followed.  Kind of sweet...too bad we were sick.  The flu turned into an upper respiratory infection with Gerren.  Breathing treatments were his relief.  

Even when he's sick, he's still cute!

 

We've been working on doing chores and earning money.  We went back to the drawing board with our GIVE/SAVE/SPEND jars.  They are much cuter now.  Cute = Kids will use...right??  They love the idea of earning money, but they aren't always excited about the chore part!

Gerren was running around in socks with a small hole...the hole got bigger and bigger.  Any other time, his socks would have been long gone...but he was wearing these...

 

Gerren also decided to try his hand at photography.  When the battery in my camera died, he chased Josh around begging to use his camera.  He couldn't understand why Josh wouldn't share!  He's not too bad for a 3 year old :)
