Welcome to 2009.

I can not believe January is almost over.

We are busy as usual. Here we are at the Stock Show on Monday. Alex was out for the day(MLK) and so we decided to check it out. We had a great time. As far as an update.....We are still praying to be closer to family in Spring/Summer 2009 so keep praying with us. The kids are all getting big and James and I are constantly reminding ourselves of the song.....your gonna miss this...especially when we find them playing in the toilet, like getting in the toilet trying to flush lotion down the toilet or maybe Tyler's sock or blanket. This happened minutes after we all laughed at a kid sitting in the toilet on Americas Funniest Home videos. Jack has learned how to write his name and is so super proud that he has decorated the entire house with his John Hancock (blinds,walls,curtains,floors and places you could never imagine) I found a big J on Tyler's belly when I was dressing her and she told me that was for Jack and I asked Jack if he wrote a J on Tyler and he said yes because she is MY Tyler. Jack wants to live in the country and some days he wants to be a firefighter and others the Hulk or Ironman.

Tyler is getting super big yet still so tiny. Kind of girly, but mean and bossy. Her favorite color is pink and she loves Dora the Explorer. Wants to do things herself and loves to be pampered. Sissy paints her nails and toes(pink of course) and she like to get her back rubbed. Trying to keep up with Jack, but looking cute doing it.

Alex was off for quite some time and has returned to 6th grade. Soccer will start next month. She is doing great in school and we are super proud. She is turning in to quite the young lady. James and I are thankful for our blessings and hope that 2009 will be a great year..........for us and everyone else.
