Wow... Where Have We Been?

Let's just say life has been b-u-s-y!!! But it's been great, full of adventures, and lots of fun! So I know these posts are going to be backwards, but I will be putting up a couple different posts of recent activities in the Barnoski family. As for a quick run-down (from youngest to oldest):
Garett:
-bottom right front tooth coming in (causing a bit of discomfort for the drooling little man)
-rolling over
-sitting up
-starting to rock on his knees -- is crawling around the corner??
-sleeping so well at night, mommy is so grateful
-loves his big brother, stares at him often with a big cheeseburger, toothless smile
-giggles a TON!
-6 month stats: 28 1/2 inches long (a little over an inch longer than Wyatt at this time), 18.6 lbs (a tad bigger than Wyatt again).
-eating fruits and veggies like a stud (well, most of the time -- he will spit some of them out just to get daddy upset)
Wyatt:
-reminds us at every meal to pray together!! Maybe he'll grow up to be a pastor!
-sings more tunes than just Twinkle, Twinkle and Frere Jacques
-counts pretty well to ten (sometimes skips a number but pretty close)
-has an amazing imagination
-loves to play outside after dinner with mommy and daddy (usually Garett is taking his evening cat nap)
-loves to play instruments and musical chairs at school
-still goes to time out quite often at school!! :)
-has a best friend at school named Wyatt A. (who is easily a head shorter than him)
-is growing like a weed -- can't keep up with the pant length
-loves his sweets -- mommy will take full responsibility for that one
-is a great cuddler and a wonderful little man
Anna:
-working at the third grade level now for a few more weeks
-is being challenged daily with students' behaviors and attitudes
-challenged daily with adults who create crutches for these students and motivate these students extrinsically, hoping to get them to perform at the level they SHOULD work at, not pushing them to meet higher expectations (I don't get it!!!!!!!)
-loves evening times with the family
-is enjoying meeting new friends at school and through the military
-made it on a 12-mile ruck march with Jake last weekend (felt like a geezer afterwards but I made it!) Did I mention we did it in UNDER three hours?!? Rock on!
-will have my masters in a few months
-is about to cut the hair off!
Jake:
-excelling at his position in the Army
-making a difference with his soldiers (especially by setting an example through healthy eating and strong PT performances)
-treats his wife like a queen especially after she has a rough day
-is working hard at convincing MWR on post to bring Roger Clyne for a concert at Fort Benning
-is the Tickle King of our family!!!
