WOW!!! Soooo much going on in our lives and I haven't shared any of it on here! A New Year's resolution is to try and blog more.
Football season went extra long this year, but that is a good thing because the CLC Raiders are the 2009 State Champions!!!!!! We beat Rochester in the championship game in overtime. It was a nail biting, edge-of-your-seat game! We were also invited to play in a bowl game, so the weekend before Thanksgiving found us traveling down to Iowa for a bowl game. It was an experience for the team. The score was NOT in our favor, but at least the boys can say they did it!
Megan is still truly enjoying school. She amazes me everyday with what she is learning. She enjoys watching the history channel and is reading chapter books.
Madi is really starting to grow with the whole school thing. She isn't quite as emotional as she used to be, which makes it easier on everybody.
Mia is still fiesty! She is set in her ways and does not want anybody to tell her any different. Megan is her best bud!
Elijah is growing like a weed!! I can't believe he is 11 months old already. He has not started walking yet, but it could happen any day now!
All of the girls are still very protective of their little 'buddy boy'. I couldn't ask for better 'mothers' for him.
As for me, well, same old stuff for me. Trying to keep up on laundry, house cleaning, office work, etc. I thank the Lord everyday that I have these things to try to keep up with though.
Christmas was wonderful again this year. My whole family came up the weekend before. We had a wonderful time just being together and enjoying each others company. Christmas Eve and part of Christmas Day found us at home just being us. Then it was down to New London for Christmas with the in-laws! Never a dull moment for us!
Praying for healthy and happiness to each and everyone of you during 2010! I will be getting some pictures on here soon.

He loves his jumper!Oops!
Okay, so I have not been that good at keeping up on this. I am hoping to get birthday pics on here from the last two soon!!! Free time is something I lack.
Everything is going great!!! Megan is enjoying 1st grade more than she did kindergarten I think. She was soooo excited to have her own desk this year. Madi is in School Readiness two mornings a week and she is enjoying it very much, I think. She doesn't really say too much about it, but doesn't complain when it is a day for her to go. Mia is getting sooo close to being potty trained, finally! Thank you Nana and Papa for helping us with this one as well! Elijah is a busy little boy! He is now scooching across the floor and getting to where he wants to be. He has two teeth and I am sure there will be more soon! We finally got him to eat baby food, he fought it for a long time. He does prefer the puffs and some table foods over it though.
Hope this finds everybody else well and that you are all preparing for winter! It is right around the corner. We just finally got the fall and Halloween decorations up yesterday. That is how far behind I really am!!!!!
