Winter Time..

Another month has gone and i still feel like it was the first of December. Where has the time gone. Breanna is 5 months in a couple of days and she is still so small (everyone keeps telling me). She weighs between 12-13 pound by now at the beginning of January she was 11 pounds. We have tried starting her on rice cereal and she is not ready. Every time I try she shut her mouth tight and won't let the spoon in or she just blows raspberries at me. She is still a very good baby and sleep most nights all the way through. She is fighting a cold right now so it has been a little rough. She is also a talker. Daycare tells that she just talks and giggles all day. She is full of smiles when I drop her off so I know she is ok and like the girls that are watching her.
The twins were glad to go back to school now if we can get them from getting cards pulled at school so they can participate in Green day parties day we are set. Megan is struggling with ready as she does blend the sounds together as she sounds out the words. Nik is going to be reading book in no time as he can blend the sounds together. We are in trouble.
Austin is now in Boy Scouts and enjoying that he is doing well in school.
Robert and I may look into adding on to house this year or fixing things to place the house for sale. Who knows it is still early and we are going to look into our option at this point. I am torn about moving as we are in a good location for commute time to both our jobs and dad is close by. Decisions are tough.

Christmas 2009

It is always good when you can get the kids to cooperate to take pictures in front the tree.

WOW!!

It doesn't seem possible that it has been 3 months since Breanna was born. I return to work tomorrow and as much as I am excited to return to work and have more adult conversations throughout the day. I am also sad. It has been fun watching Breanna grow each day and develop her personality. She is such a happy baby. Sleeping through the night since middle of October and she is alot like Austin in that she likes to stand rather than sit, she gets really excited and smiles at everything.

The past 3 month have been good the kids are adjusting well and I think it was good to be home to try to get a routine in place, it may all change now that i won't be home after school but we will see. The twins are excited each day after school to come home and do their homework all on Mondays so they can play. Right now they are working on a map learning project and the class is trying to find the Gingerbread boy that escaped from the Oven on Tuesday, today he was in Arizona (Megan says it as Arizonwa, it is cute). The first semester is over and all the kids did really well. Austin got A's and B's so we are excited for the great start to the year and on the 6th of this month he will be turning 11. Wow! The twins are good Nik is doing really well, he can count to 100, recognizes all 52 letters (upper and lower-case) and is doing well with sight words and letter sounds. Megan is also doing well, she is struggling a little more than Nik but is still achieving the goals that were set. She just need to learn to keep her hands to herself and not bother Nik in class.

Now as we are getting ready for the holidays and the end of the year. I want to take some time to thank all of my family and friends that have supported this year for their love. We love them all and miss those that are not close enough to visit. We wish you all a great holiday season and hope that all your dreams and wish come true with the coming year.

Finally FINISHED!!!

It took me 2 years to get this finished but I finally did it. Now to begin Megan's and try to get it finished by next year and maybe getting Breanna's finshed also.

Fall is Here!

November already! WOW!!

Austin is doing well in school. He is currently getting A's and B's. He just finish his first project in 5th grade. He had to do a report and then participate in a wax museum. He was Babe Ruth!

Then we had Halloween. 3 kids in school and a baby at home. The kids parade at school was on Thursday and then they had no school on Friday. Since Halloween was on Saturday it was nice so that we could carve pumpkins on Friday since Robert was actually home the final weekend of the month. Gotta love the Hunting Season. And then trick or treating on Saturday.

And here are the Costumes! Austin was a mummy, Megan a Witch, Nikolai Superman and Breanna was a little Ghost.

Breanna is now 2 months old. She weighed in at 9lbs and 22 inches today. She is smiling, Trying to grab onto things and Growing. When we go out everyone still thinks she is so small, but she is growing.

I have recovered well from the C-section and have another 4 weeks off before I have to return to work on December 3rd. I am going to try to get christmas shopping done and re-arranging the bedrooms for the kids so that Megan and Breanna can have a room together.
