One Year Later....

It's been FOREVER since I've updated my blog. The kids are getting older and cuter, and my husband and my lives are getting busier. Natlatlie is in Kindergarten and also involved in gymnastics. She loves BOTH! She is learning to read and can spell the names of everyone in our family. She has mastered forward and backward somersaults and is working diligently on mastering her kartwheel. Nolan likes TAG this year (thank goodness). His mind works so much like mine....adding birthdays to get someone else's birthday, using phone numbers to make words.....I can see the math coming out in him already!

Nathan is as rotten as ever. He has had a few mishaps at school, as far as goofiness is involved. He is improving his behavior, however, and is very proud when he gets a good report from preschool. I didn't really expect anything other than this, as he is the clown of the family....always looking for a laugh :) And who can fault him for his comedic behavior?

Nick is getting bigger and smarter each day. As the fourth child, his vocabulary is quite remarkable and he catches on easily with all things the older kids expose him to. He's becoming sneaky like Nathan, independent like Natalie, and brainy like Nolan. He's a complete combination of his siblings.

I am winding down in my college education and can FINALLY see the light at the end of the tunnel! I am so thankful for a husband who supports me and helps me and for kids that are excited for me to become a teacher. Though not every single day is perfect, I LOVE every part of being a wife and mother.

Here's a more recent picture of the fam!
