Starting Anew!!

It has been so long since I have updated the blog that I feel like I am starting all over!! We have had such a busy year and pictures from throughout the year are in the slideshow to the right and I am going to post a slideshow of a year in pictures very soon!! So to update everyone, Kris and I have been busy hard working parents or 'rents' as Ben now refers to us, this year has been kinda rocky with all that has been going on but we are making it through it!!

Ben officially graduated from preschool and now is half way through kindergarten, he is so smart!! He has been reading, writing and counting. He loves school and homework and never wants to miss a thing!! This summer he also played baseball and took swim lessons and let me tell you he is quit the little fish. This fall he played soccer and the poor boy is the smallest kid on his team. But he does well, he told everyone that he only played soccer because his dad was on the board and he had to! lol!! Kids. Last week he lost one of his bottom teeth, and then did not put it under his pillow for 2 days cause he had to shoe everyone!! He finally got a dollar from the tooth fairy and now is singing all I want for Christmas is my one front tooth!!

Abby the little pistol that she is, is now getting ready to start her final semester of preschool and she tells me that she will then go to the big school with bubby!! She has been working really hard in speech and her speech is getting better. She loves Miss Karen. This summer she played softball and boy was that a site to see, she is always smiling but does not want to put a lot of effort into the whole running thing!! She also took swim lessons and did well, says she can't wait to go back next summer, so watch out Grammy here we come to Sullivan camping for the month! lol! Abby also played soccer and loved it!! I think it is only because her boyfriend was on the team though. She is so funny and has a great time!! But watch out don't make her mad!!

Now for the Nazi Twins!! Yes that is what we refer to them at in our house! Addisyn and Alyvia run the place like no body's business!! What one of them does not think of the other one does, and there is 2 of them to boot!! The are now in preschool and finally not getting in trouble there anymore. The first couple months were a little ruff!! They like to rough house way to much!! They both also took swim lessons and did well after they got over crying about it!! They were too young to play softball so they were the cheerleaders for bubby and sissy. They did however play soccer and boy what a site!! I was their coach but had to hide most of the time so that they would play so coach Cory did most of the work. The two of them are something else and will tell you exactly how it is and I have no idea where they got that from. HaHa!!

All the kids also take Kindermusik and are learning a lot about music, they all love to dance and sing. We have dance parties in the Kitchen quit often. My kids are awesome!! They are all so much fun and I hope they never change, but I think that is coming!!

Well hope this is a good update for you all!! Sorry that I have neglected the Blog for so long, but as you can tell our lives are very busy and hectic!!
