Yates Family: to remember

Ever, 3 years 10 months
her emotions change minute to minute, I know this is normal, but some days it makes it hard
she is growing up so much, 4 is almost here and I can't stand it
She amazes me every day, she is spelling out words, she can write the alphabet and is recognizing some words.
She is LOVING sunbeams, she doesn't tell me much of what she learns when I ask but I hear it all the time when she is playing and singing. She is doing so well.
She is still the best sissy. West adores her still and numerous times a day they are gut laughing at eachother.
they are both sleeping in our bed last night, well every night really, and West had his arm around her. They are so sweet!
She still loves movies and shows, we really should cut back a bit, but its so hard when we are inside all day.
she made cards today for grandma connie and said she wants to send them to her in the mail to make her feel better.
she also made one from grandpa mont, I really need to send them, she is so sweet.
She is so creative, and artistic, I love it.
She is so snuggly, its so nice.
She is excited for her birthday even though I am not
She still likes dance and is getting a little better about listening their, she just wants to run around and that is not aloud, but when it comes to memorizing the dances she has that!
I don't know what we would do with out her, she has such a good heart and sweet spirit, she compliments people, and has great manners. I love this little girl more than I can say

Westbrook, 13 months
this age has been a little challenging.
he is a moody little man and likes his way
if he doesnt get it watch out
he is hitting a little and it is so hard to teach him not to to that
he goes to the garbage and bathroom every chance he gets because he knows he shouldn't
he is sick again, poor kid can't catch a break
still hates his teeth brushed
weighs 25 or more lbs, size 6 shoe, size 4 diapers and is so big!
He only sleeps alone for a couple hours at night than wants to sleep by me and kick me ALL night.
His hair is so thick and straight, and getting LONG. I don't want to fight him for a cute though.
He is trying to say so many words, my favorite are nanana(banana), No, Hi, santa, ball, uh oh, and a few animal sounds. He knows what a dog, cat, cow and tiger say.
he now turns his hand up and says go? and he says "dad do?" the way he puts his hand up is the best.
He throws everything down the stairs
he is so active, I took him to the library and he was running around pulling as many books as he could off all the shelves. He is a fart!
Church is a nightmare like it is with most one year olds. But I wouldn't change a thing about this man. He understands so much and really is a smart little cookie.
He gives the best kisses, he especially loves to kiss Kort, he is pretty good with him really never does anything bad to him, he actually brings him toys. So cute!
We all love this little crazy man!
