No Pictures..but at least an update

I can't believe that we are already celebrating Easter and getting ready for Spring! The first quarter of the year has been as good one so far for the Wismers. February started with John and Nettie going to a new school/daycare. With baby Goldberg (beautiful little Lily) coming soon, Leslie was ready to move a couple kids out and Nettie was READY for a new challenge. Both kids seem to be enjoying their new environment. Nettie surprises her teachers everyday with all that she knows. We can thank a lot of time with Diana, Leslie and Mom and Dad drilling her on letters, numbers and spelling for all this! She likes going to a school that has a big park she can play on every day, more kids than she can remember names and a teacher that she loves. John is getting used to being around that maybe babies and is finally adjusting to taking naps in a room with other kids, something he never has done (spoiled little stinker!). Of course, with beginning a new day care, the last 2 months have also been full of colds, ear infections, and plenty of yucky bodily functions that all parents love to deal with. We are hoping with Spring all this subsides and we get back to normal.
February ended with the celebration of John's first birthday. It was a fun party with lots of family and friends. We were super excited that Aunt Jean, Abbie and Mia made the trip from Durango for the weekend. Geema and Geepa left the following day for a 5 week trip and Nettie has been counting the days down until they get back since. February was full of family birthdays and baby showers. We are excited that Lily Goldberg joined the craziness in March, Nettie needs an ally, since it was 3 boys to 1 girl! We are looking forward to Grandpa Jack coming for a visit in April, Baby Burford making his/her appearance and warmer weather this spring.
I will try to post pictures from the last couple of months. Have a Happy Easter!
