FIRST DAY OF DANCE!
CUTIE PIE KADEN
LAZY SUNDAY! BAKING ZUCCHINI BREAD! CUTEST APRONS EVER!
ICE FISHING WITH DAD UP STRAWBERRY!
Obviously, we are way over due for an update! I am so glad to say that 2008 is over! The holiday months were SO NOT FUN for me and my little peeps! If it wasn't me having ridiculous earaches, then it was either Kaden or Josie having a cold or something! I am back, and I have so much updating to do... so I will start with me!
What have I been up to:
- lost 50 pounds since November- THANK GOODNESS!
- Running kids around to all of their activities, and I love it!
- I am the activity days leader for the 10-11 year olds, they are darling!
- still loving Saratoga Springs! I finally feel "home". Yes, after 16 moves, it is time!
- trying to improve and balance being a wife, mom, friend, and neighbor.
- not blogging!
- helping in kids school classes, subbing in Primary, and just being mom...
- will have fabulous news to post on Monday, (pinch me!)
- works way too much!
- still fitting basketball in around all of his side jobs...
- and the ward ball team are going to REGIONALS! lol!!!
- constantly taking time to help me with every small thing I need ( and that is a large task!)
- is the BEST AND I LOVE HIM! (GUSH!)
- is staying busy with school, took the 4 hour test and hopefully makes it in to the A.L.L. program at school! We'd hate for him to be bored another year!
- is rockin' it on the basketball court. He loves it!
- still reads like a maniac. He is currently reading the "Leven Thumps" series. What to do when he is done?
- can't wait for the snow to melt, so they can play "real football on the grass"...
- is earning money to buy his own DS, and saving money for the beach!!!
- still busy as always. He continues to draw, color, and do anything artsy-fartsy. I love it!
- is playing Indoor Soccer, and is enjoying it. A little different than regular soccer, but still fun and scores almost every game!
- loves Legos, and is obsessed with Star Wars (still!)
- is amazing! He finally quit biting his fingernails and cuticles. He had a 30 day challenge to stop, and we didn't think he could do it. That is a lot to ask of a 5 year old. He did it, and Mom bought him the Darth Maul galactic hero (not an easy find!)
- is very protective of Josie. He is realizing that he shouldn't be so mean to her! He is constantly helping her out with everything!
- is almost done with his phonics program at school. He works so hard, and is reading so well. He loves to do his homework, practice his writing, and his speech has improved amazingly!
- is still cute as ever!
- started dance this year, and LOVES it so much! She now constantly twirls, kicks, does splits, and sings EVERYWHERE! Her personality has blossomed! I can see why my Dad got so sick of me twirling and practicing in the front room!
- is a complete slob. She changes her outfits at least 8 times a day. It drives me nuts, she never matches, and she drops everything on her floor. I am trying to teach her to put things up when she changes... wish me luck!
- is doing really well in preschool. She can write her name, recognize a ton of letters, and is starting on her phonics. She loves her teacher!
- got a haircut! And looks adorable. She is getting so grown up! The hair was cut in a cute "bob" and it makes her a little Sassy! I told her she looked like "Fancy Nancy" after she got it cut and had gotten all dressed up. She told me, "No, Mom, I look like Sassy Fifi"...
- is a little too much like me, but I love it!
I'm out!
