Welcome Home Nathan!

Wow, we have been very busy lately. Seth's brother Nathan came home on October 13th. He served a 2 year mission for our church in Buenos Aires Argentina. We are so proud of him and very happy to have him home. My how things have changed since he left. Kimmie was only around 2 months old when he left and he returned to a 4 month old nephew. Crazy! Kimmie loves him so much, in fact as I am typing this she is upstairs with him singing "I Am a Child of God". Two years went by so fast.
Now that Nathan is home things should start to settle down for us. Kimmie is growing more independen each day, along with that comes temper tantrums. Sunday she threw a fit because she didn't want to leave nursery at church. She loves playing with other kids and singing songs. She can count to 15 and sometimes to 20. She can also count backwards from 10-1 (and she says BLASTOFF after). She loves to snuggle with David and play with him. He really lights up when he sees her, she can always make him smile. He loves her so much, but fears her too:) David is growing like a champ. He is 4 months old and weighs 16lbs, is 25 3/4 inches long and his head is 41.8cm. He is still in the 75-90th percentile for everything. He smiles all the time and laughs a lot too. He loves tummy time, the doctor said he is as strong as a 6 month old. He sits up really well and is almost ready to sit by himself. He rolls over all the time if you put him on his tummy. They are both growing so fast and are such a blessing to have in our lives. Here are some pictures to catch everyone up.
