Catch-up and Must've

K, so big apology about not posting for a while, but I'll tell you what: the old adage "No news is good news" is certainly applicable to us. Things have just been incredibly busy, in a very good way! :) Jared is now the Director of Assisted Living at a facility in Phoenix (boo on the drive, but it's worth it!), I am forever chasing around two little monkeys, but also enjoying my down time of reading, writing (set aside book 1 for some editing, working on book 2 now), and improving my housewife skills.

Anna is truly delightful and frequently makes me laugh like a little girl. She is growing fast and learning even faster. Emily has now mastered stairs, can get up and down off the couch, and tries to climb anything she can. She is using so many more consonants than last month and you can hear her language abilities changing almost daily. She even says "Daddy's home!" with the same intonation that Anna uses; it just usually sounds like, "Dah-huh!"

Anyway, all is well with us. I will try to be more consistent about posts, but sorry, no promises! I'm just lovin' life a little too much!





Two very tired Trick-or-Treators. Anna was a ladybug and Emily was a bee. I know that I now like Halloween quite well - best child labor opportunity EVER!
