It's Been Awhile

So, I guess it's time to fill us all in again on what we've been up to. There is so much I don't know how to choose what to tell, but here we go.

Kassidy had her first dance recital a couple weeks ago and she was so excited, and did very well. You can't expect a whole lot from 3-4 year olds, but it was good. It is also crazy to watch an hour and a half of other kids dancing to finally get to your kid, who only dance for about 2 minutes. We are also learning a ton of words and sounds of letters with Kassi. She's really excited about that as well, so, so far it's been an easy task for her to keep motivated. She LOVES to show "daddy" when he comes home, all that she's learned that day.

Kevin, well, Kevin is a handful these days. I have decided to give up going to the store with both kids, unless absolutely necessary, not strictly because they are bad, but Kevin insist on walking if Kassi is. Riding in the big part of the basket if Kassi is. And most of the time he can't make up his mind which one he'd rather do so it stresses me out and therefore, no store with kids. Kevin is starting to learn shapes by name. He has been matching them for a little while now, but he hasn't known their names. He's loving Thomas Tank and Monkeys...and still Scooby Doo. I think he's going to be one jealous kid when the new baby comes. YIKES!

Steve has been so busy it's insane. He doesn't leave too early in the morning, but he has been getting home around 7 p.m. at night. This means that he's missed dinner and the kids are either in bed or bathing before bed. The kids and I miss him so much! However, SOC is doing some restructuring, and so the longer hours and busyness is supposed to change for him.

I am just trying to keep up at the moment. I have so many things I want to accomplish and I can't seem to get the time for each that is required. I want to sew more Flurr blankets for new babies. I want to play with my Cricut software. I'd really rather not clean our shower, however, I think I may have to at some point. I really want to go running, but that's really going to have to wait. (6 mo. Pregnant here!) I want to do my scrapbooking group again, but I barely see Steve as it is, so I just can't justify it. I want to find more books I'd like to read. So, there you have it. That's us. Our successess, our wants...what else is there?

We are blessed though! Steve and I have seen it sewn deep into our lives, especially this past year. We have a wonderful neighborhood, and excellent family, friends who love us and not to mention Steve new job. We are grateful for each other and I'm glad our family is that way.
