Just know, we are doing great! Kanzis is such a miracle in our lives. It's amazing to me to watch her. She is crawling all over the place now. If we hold her hands she will take steps and walk everywhere and absolutely loves it. She can pull herself up to things and she can clap, which is the cutest thing ever! I am just absolutely mesmerized by these milestones she is reaching. I cry every time she figures out something new. They aren't just "something babies do" to me. They are so much more. They are achievements that I feel so blessed to be a part of.
Kaizen didn't get to crawl, clap, play with toys, or sit up. Those were not achievements God blessed him with. It was hard sometimes seeing other babies his age doing so much more than his little body would allow. But we knew it didn't matter to him, he didn't no any different. We let him be him and his smile and laugh showed us he loved his life.
So when Kanzis is doing these things, I can't help but cry tears of joy. I am so happy that she is healthy and able to be so active. I also think about how Kaizen is able to do all of those things now. Right along with his sister, and that brings more joy to my heart than I could ever describe.
I don't know if you have noticed but most all of these monthly pictures include Kaizen. Some didn't because of the move :( The ones of me has the picture of him and with Kanzis in the last few have had Kaizen's build a bear and his feet casts in them. :) I love to include him. I will never be ready to just let go.
I sure love my sisters

Visiting Kaizen's headstone on Easter
This is the view I saw when Josh proposed to me on Easter 2007. Seven
years ago I said yes to a question that would change my whole life.
On Easter we took a four wheeler drive up there. Such a wonderful memory.
We went to Cabela's, Kanzis loved the animals. so many to look at.
And unlike the zoo. There weren't a lot of people to distract her.
She was so interested.
First time she went fishing. She loved it...after she had a little nap in.
Biggest fish I have ever caught.
I was pretty excited. I am so excited to go more this year!
