Update. Update.

I just got the kids to bed and was on the way back upstairs to do a little bit of clean up and some working out when I realized how much I've missed my blog. So, I'm going to squeeze in a little somethin' here so you can all know that we are all still alive and well.

What we've been up to (again)...

Steve
  • Hardest worker in the universe.
  • Still working full time and going to school nearly full time and taking on a part time job on top of all of that.
  • Has been forcing me to watch Star Trek: The Next Generation during the times when he is home.
  • Is the sweetest, most thoughtful, extremely patient man imaginable - I'm so lucky to have him - we'll be celebrating 7 years next week!
  • Surprised me with a copy of Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking.
Julie
  • Has been conditioned to fall asleep during Star Trek, no matter what time of day it's on.
  • Day Care is up and running - I have 4 kids in my care - all under the age of two.
  • Will go gray within the next two years, I'm sure.
  • Is exhausted.
  • Has tinkered with the above mentioned cookbook a bit and LOVES it!
  • Pinched her dang sciatic again a couple of weeks ago and recovery has been frustrating, to say the least.
  • Is juggling everything remarkably - I'm not sure how, but everything's getting done.
  • Really looking forward to our upcoming anniversary - need that date night!

Drew
  • Busy being a4th grader and super cute.
Gandalf
  • Absolute lazy bum.
  • Is making the dog's life a little more endurable.
  • But, still enjoys cornering him and listening to him whine until one of us comes to the rescue.
Joe
  • Biggest sweetheart in the universe!
  • Just found out he got into The Ogden Preparatory Academy for next year and will be there with a bunch of his little friends.
  • Wrote and illustrated a book today. Very cute and pretty creative.
  • Runs laps inside the house everyday - I think he's as ready for spring as I am.
Kathrynn
  • Growing more and more beautiful each day.
  • Is still a professional two year old - she's living it to the fullest.
  • Has officially entered the 'best friend' phase.
  • Says words like "actually," "extremely," and "absolutely."
Chu Chu
  • Is being a good dog, finally.
  • We love him.
  • Looks good in dog sweaters.
  • Quite often doubles as a vacuum cleaner.
