Gym Meet and Swimming






Not much new around here. We are trying to enjoy the nice weather we have been having. Paige had her first Gymnastics meet this month. She did really well. She makes us proud. She has also had 3 swimming birthday parties. Apparently its the thing to do these days. She can now swim all by herself with no floats. Jocelyn is not far behind. She can jump in and go under. We have two little fish. Here are some pics of the meet and Swimming.

Our new nephew



We are happy to welcome a new little member to the family. My brother Todd and his wife Dara had another little boy born March 2nd. They named him Michael Alfred LaPlante. He weighed in at a healthy 8lbs 6oz and was 21 inches long. He is as cute as can be. His big brother Jeffrey adores him.
On not such a happy note, Brian's company announced a 5% company wide pay cut. Although this really sucks, we are just thankful to both have jobs at this point.
We have been keeping busy with the girls activities. We have been going swimming lately, getting ready for the nice weather, if it ever comes. We hope everyone is keeping healthy, which can be challenging this time of year. Both of the girls had pneumonia this winter along with about 100 other little illnesses. Did I mention I can't wait for spring!
