The 'do

Finally, I can post pictures of Cori's new look. Her cousin Chad gave her a new hairdo. He even colored it all over. We were nervous before we saw the end result because we had only let her have some highlights before. But he made her a "sandy" blonde and we love it. I like how brave she is and the fact that she is the ONLY girl in her school to have her hair short. She likes to do her own thing which is great. We just got back from watching one of her basketball games, she scored 1/3 of the points; she really played well. We applied her to a new high school this week and we eagerly await results. We are all looking forward to many new adventures in a few months.

Bryson still enjoys watching his sister play basketball. If anyone claps, he claps and cheers too for either team. Cori says she can hear him from the court. His favorite thing is to run on the court after the game and go straight to his sister and hug her legs. He practices dribbling his basketball on the kitchen floor, he's getting good. Bryson is getting so big and soaking up information like crazy. He can point to many things that you ask for specifically and he also makes many animal sounds. Sometimes he wakes up from his nap and I hear him roaring because he sees one of the stuffed tigers in his room; sometimes it's a monkey. We recently taught him to say and sign "Please". Now he knows to say it whenever he wants something and he is really hard to turn down, especially because he says please like Roger Rabbit, it's so cute!
