Where Did January Go?

I cannot believe that today is the last day in January. Where has the time gone? February is just around the corner, which reminds me that I need to get out and get Charles a b-day present. If any of you readers has any suggestions, I'd LOVE to hear them! I have NO CLUE what to get him!

Myaela, your ring is so pretty! I really like it. One of these days we're going to have to have you and Jeremy over for dinner. I'm sorry I've been such a slacker in this department.

Cyd, congrats on your win over ML! That's exciting!

I don't have anything really exciting to add to our blog, but since no one ever posts anymore, I thought I'd just post this little picture of McKay's hiney. Evidently he does have something in common with the cat since Milo LOVES doing this too! McKay's been a bit sick the last little bit. Luckily, he hasn't been too cranky, just got a stuffy nose and gucky lungs. Hopefully he will get better soon. ~Mikaela

pictures!!

So, I told everyone I'd post pictures of my ring, so here they are! =D It's 1/4 a carat, white gold, with a little bit of yellow gold as an accent. =D We had to get it resized, so I won't actually be able to wear it until tomorrow afternoon when we go pick it up! =D But, I made sure I took pictures so I could post them! luv you guys!!

Congrat!!

Hey, Jeremy & Myaela! We are excited to hear the news! We are all anxious to meet Jeremy. Good thing that he proposed before he met the family!! I've got to make this fast. Kristopher looks good, I think that he has grown another inch, at least. I've got a RS Pres. mtg. in 45min and if we get to ML /Pasco game I've got to hurry. Cyd says they have it worked out tonight! Love, Grandma K.

I'm engaged!!

So, in case anyone hasn't heard the incredible news, I am officially engaged. His name is Jeremy Cress, he's 23 and from Spokane Valley. We're planning for the middle or end of June. Other than that, I don't know any details. I will be sure to update when I find anything out!! =D

OOPS! BAPTISM TIME !!

Sorry, but the time of Kade's baptism is 6pm. Guess I got it wrong. Love, Grandma K.

KADE'S BAPTISM

Marci wanted me to let you all know that Kade will be baptised on Jan 14 (Sunday) @ 4pm in Connell! Everyone is invited.

Kelli, Bella is adorable. Just preparing you for Motherhood! (Crying all night!!) I'm trying to teach Bandit that he can't chew!--on people; afraid that he will bite the Grandkids. He is learning pretty fast. (But, like babies, he keeps forgetting--so don't let him try to bite. Say "No". Thanks)

Cydney played an awesome game last night--not the best I've seen Pasco play, but good enough to beat Walla Walla. I heard that Katelyn played quite a lot too.

Mikaela and Charles: Great news! That will be a lot of fun to shop for a house. Be pretty fussy about what you want! We will be anxious to hear the adventure! Love, Mom

Bella

Here is our new dog Bella. She only weighs 2.4 pounds. Isn't she cute?

Love,

The Stapleton's

A Hunting We Will Go....

....House Hunting that is. Charles and I got pre-approved for a home loan. Tomorrow we meet with the Real Estate Agent that we're going to use. So I'm just excited we get to finally have our own place. Just wanted to share our good news with everyone. Hope you're all enjoying the new year!
