Summary for the last , almost year lol. I'll treat this as the Christmas Letter I never wrote this year either lol
What have we been up to? Well, I think it would be safer to say what havent we been up to.
We are expecting! That's right, we are going to have a 3rd child, Yes we think we are crazy too. We will find out in a little under a week what we are having.
We just bought a van, no seriously, we bought it Monday. We need a vehicle that can fit 3 kids soon, and well, my car is way to compact. We have been saving for our van and once our taxes come in ( we filed them a while ago) we will have it fully paid off. It feels nice to know that we worked hard to save for our van and we will never have to make a monthly payment on it.
Dustin: Dustin works, ALL THE TIME!!! Its a bit frustrating actually, but he's an over achiever and it pays the bills. Dustin has been taking one class a term and is ecstatic to announce that he has completed his calculus series. He got the opportunity to go to Japan. He actually just got back. He was gone for 2 weeks and yes, I hated every minute of him being gone. He had a great time in Japan though. In fact he had such a great time he thinks we should all move there....
Jenifer: I graduated school! HALLELUJAH!! I kinda miss some aspects of school, But I enjoy being done. I graduated with honors, on Phase 2, completed my Dean's List, Attended Beacon, and Caper (2 times) I can happily say I completed every goal I set out for myself when it came to my education. I started in a salon, but I didnt quite feel the vibe or like my schedule so I just recently switched to a Paul Mitchell Focus Salon. Love it. Much more inviting, come as you are atmosphere. I only work 2 nights a week to be home with my kids, my main job.I would tell you more about that job, but I don't think you care about cleaning up after kids and poopy diapers ect. :)
Kirsten: Kirsten switched ENTs to one that we actually like. We went her other doctor because she was a pediatric one. But we feel that our new ENT cares a lot more and knows a lot more. Kirsten had holes in her eardrums and our new ENT covered them up and Kirsten is as good as new! She has been dramatically improving in her speech, language, understanding and listening, balance, basically everything! She still has a long way to go but its nice to know she is getting better. Kirsten got a dog. We got her a golden retriever. Her name is Daisy. She is great with our girls. We planned on training her to be a therapy dog so that she could come to the hospital with Kirsten for her surgeries, however, We dont see Kirsten needing anymore surgeries!!!! Cross your fingers!
Mikelle: Mikelle is borderline potty trained. Its really close. She is still wrecking havoc around our home. I have never seen a child that could tear through a room so fast while having the cutest smile on her face. Mikelle just had her birthday. She loves horses so of course she wanted a cowgirl party. She made a really cute cowgirl. Mikelle knows her ABC's, can count to seven (sometimes more) but she hasnt quite figured out her colors yet, But that girl retains information like a sponge.
We have been doing great. There are lots more things that I left out, but I am trying to keep my eyes open as I type. Hope everyone else has been doing well also :)
