2009

Wow, a year has gone since my last post! Devan graciously reminded me of that. A year has gone by, and many changes have occurred. Jacob is finishing up the 5th grade and is going on to middle school. Jacob has been promoted to Boy Scouts and has been playing on a basketball team. Musically, he enjoys his violin lessons, yet is not ready to perform in front of others!

Ryan, as of now, he has received a perfect 100% on ALL weekly spelling tests. He loves school, math is his favorite subject (after recess!) and is excelling. Ryan recently was promoted in his Cub Scouts, from Tiger to Bear. He was so proud! He started playing baseball, "The Cubs," and broke his finger at the batting cage! He had to wear a cast for several weeks and now is enjoying playing baseball with his team. He takes violin lessons as well, but tends to have little patience lately! Both boys, given the choice, would play video games all day!

Caden, naturally, has changed the most this year! From an infant to a walking, toddling, babbling, and happy toddler. Caden loves playing with a ball, any kind of a ball! He enjoys being with his brothers and is happy playing alongside them. His first sign was diaper, then milk! His first word, Dada, and he calls me "Muum."


We are currently working on the finishing touches of our addition, or new family room. Paint, flooring and electrical is basically all that is left. Devan and I are doing great, just trying to keep up with the boys, household stuff and enjoying our lives.
