The Strasser's

I think the title is used a lot for posts. But for a little update for us. Alyssa is going to be 7 next Friday. I can't believe she is going to be that old, and than next year is her baptism. She is doing very well in school. She is excited for 2nd grade. Owen he starts school in the fall and is very excited. He is a handful at times and is very loving. Evan did a very exciting thing last week. He stood up in the middle of the floor all by himself, he did that twice. It was very exciting!!! He goes up and down the stairs all by his self. Hoping he is walking by his third birthday. He now gets very excited when Cory comes home. Emma is rolling over from her back to her tummy and than from her tummy to her back. She is a very happy girl. Cory he is loving teaching he has been working lots. I think next year is going to be better. For me.....well I have been trying to lose weight.I have a goal of when I want most of the weight off, I am hoping to reach that goal.  Haven...

We came back from our visit with family and doing some work for our business. And there a couple of really nice days, and we made it to the beach with our neighbors.     Evan playing the container we keep the sand toys in.  

My grandma's memory is not so great lately, Cory and I took the time along with Emma to go see her while that kids were playing with cousin's. She loved holding Emma.

  While visiting family on spring break we were able to make a trip to the zoo. The kids had lot's of fun. It was very packed!           Sefa checking out the monkey.     Alyssa and Emma on the hippo   Alyssa pretending to be an elephant Here's the new baby elephant at the zoo   baby and mom Owen's cousin and owen hanging out in the stroller.   Alyssa and her cousins in front of the giraffe's Pink Flamingos

Well it has started getting more crazy around. We have Physical therapy (PT), Occupational Therapy (OT), Speech, Head start  Teacher, I almost think there was someone else. But I guess I will remember when I see them. Evan is getting his eyes checked on April 15th. He will be having a physical therapist coming in every other week. And the rest will be coming in every so many hours each month. He will be starting to going to the middle school for an hour and half  for 4 days during the week, when he turns 3. He will be going some I believe during the summer, and he will have visit's at home. He is going down the stairs all by his self now. Hoping one of these days he will stand all by his self in the middle of the floor. He is standing up more and holding onto things. I think that's all for now about him.

  I forgot to post these pictures at the 5 month mark. Now she is almost 6 months.         

Well we have been busy around here. I am hoping that I will get back on track with more blogging. Evan's OT, PT, and Speech therapy are starting up more now.  I think that's where I left off last time. I have finally got him going down the stairs backwards. I was bribing him with a cookie. But it worked. He still is a little nervous. Here are some pictures that I haven't had a chance to post yet.
