Hi all!
Sorry that it has been so long since you have heard from us! Life has been a little crazy here in our world! Where to begin?
I guess that I will start with the kids. Sydney is going to be 5 on Thursday, November 12. This is so unbelievable. I feel like she was just born! She is currently attending preschool three days a week (Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays) she absolutely loves it and she is learning so much! She has also made a lot of new friends. She is doing really well with her writing and is getting very close to reading, she sure loves books! She is also a budding artist, she loves to do art with any type of medium. I think she would make her Grandpa Will very proud?! :-) I just had her first parent teacher conference this past Friday and her teacher recommended that I register her for kindergarten in January! She is so excited about her birthday this year, especially her party which we are holding on November 21, at Davanni's! She has been talking about it all year!! We will have a Disney Princess Theme this year, and I will be making a Princess Belle cake..I will try to post photos at some point!
Christopher is 2 1/2 now! For the longest time he was not really saying anything, so we decided to have him assessed for speech. He has started to talk more to us in the recent weeks, but still not as clearly as we would like. He will be starting speech therapy one day a week beginning on November 19. A small class with a few other kids, so he will be starting school! I am sure that he will love it. He too loves art projects. Anything I pull out from paint to crayons to markers he will stay at the table for hours! He is also very into the Wiggles and loves to sing any of his favorite songs. He is too cute! :-)
Noah is 5 1/2 months old. His first tooth has just popped through. He loves to jump in his jumperoo. He loves it when his sister talks to him, and he loves watching his siblings play. He is totally mommy's boy and usually follows her every move. He is eating all sorts of foods and loving it. He sleeps all night, though with the time change it threw his schedule all out of whack so he has been going to bed between 6:30-7:00 p.m. and waking up between 5am and 6am. Which is a long time, but not when you can't go to bed because of homework or work! He hates taking baths. He loves music. When he is happy he is happy and when he isn't watch out!
Brad is hunting at the moment. He returns home tomorrow and I can hardly wait. He has had a crazy fall. He and his sister had to put their mother into an assisted living facility as she suffers from dementia. They also have to bring her to any and all Doctor appointments that she has, which seem to be a lot. They are also in the process of selling her condo and car. Hunting was well deserved break for him and I am glad that he got the chance, though I wish we could have gotten away together for a break...maybe someday!
I am still plugging away. This quarter I decided to add another class to my schedule making that four classes! A little stressful and I am thinking that I will return to 3 classes next quarter. I feel a little strung out. I am still working, though this week I have been home with the kids. Graduation will arrive this summer and hopefully with that a new job!
I will try to post new photos as well. Take care!
