Just a quick family update

It's been a while since I've been on here, so I decided to do a quick family update.


CHET: Still working full time reading meters, still does school work every night for 3 hours, and being a hubby and daddy in between. Very, very busy!!! He is also looking else were for a job, he only has a year left with his current one. There is possibility that we will be moving, he has placed some job applications already (Boise, Colorado, and Oregon)

JAMIE: I say very irritable lately, but I'll let Chet get back on this one when he is done with the kiddoes, maybe I'm not as bad as I think I am!

Jamie thinks she is irritable, but I don't think so. She still struggles with her recent miscarriage, which is expected and normal. It doesn't help that there is a great possibility that she will not be able to have anymore children of her own, a hard hit blow to both of us. Regardless, Jamie is still able to watch the kids and work around the house in amazing ability and show us all her love and support for us. She always puts others before herself and She still makes me smile everyday and thank God that I got so luckily blessed with the best wife in the universe.

We just got a new keyboard and she is going to learn to play the piano with the promise I made her in mind that I will get her a real acoustic piano when she has mastered it. She has a need to develop a hobbie and take some time to herself. It is not easy for her to be stuck at home all the time, and still, hard for me to give her time alone because I want to be with her when I am at home. But I am going to try and be better about giving her the time she needs.

She has been thinking a lot about the possibility of moving, and considering the idea of homeschooling. She likes the idea, but is worried about her ability to perform as a teacher. I think she already is a great teacher and would be able to provide the best education our kids would find anywhere.

I am amazed at her overwhelming support to me and our children. She is always there for us and I do not know what our lives would be like without her! We are so blessed and I pray that she will feel that appreciation and love from us always. We LOVE YOU JAMIE!!!

EZZY: Still loves going to school. Tomorrow she gets to celebrate her birthday (she has to do a mid one since she turns 6 just as school starts next year, she is the youngest in her class). So I let her decide how she wanted to decorate her cupcakes and she wanted kittens on them. They turned out so cute!!! I'll have to take pictures of them and put them on here. She is still growing like a weed, she is now to past my elbows. She isn't such a little girl anymore, I sure wish she would stop growing so fast! It is driving me crazy!

CIAN: He has just discovered Star Trek Voyager and loves it!!!! (Thanks to mom and dad) We are so proud of him!!! lol We are learning to get along so much better now. He has also decided that Daddy isn't so bad anymore. If you knew him, you would know that he is the biggest mom ma's boy ever!!! When Ezzy and I started violin lessons, he had to go do things with daddy. This made them get closer to each other and now they have a very good relationship, he is now asking for Daddy to do things with him. This is HUGE!!! I am so happy for this change, it has made a huge difference here! :)

IOLLY: He is growing up so fast, not my little baby boy anymore!!! His independence is driving me nuts, he wants to do everything himself, EVERYTHING!!! He drew a picture on our white board the other day and I was very sad to not have my camera in the house, it was in the van. He drew an actual ladybug!!! Seriously, it had a big circle with dots for the body, some lines coming out of the circle for the legs, a smaller circle scribbled in and attached to the body for the head. I almost got to capture it on my phone, but he whipped it away before I could! I am hoping to get him to do it again on paper, I was so impressed!!! He loves to draw and asks to do it every day, he watched Ezzy draw them just before it was his turn. But he was all by himself when he was drawing, Ezzy was in another room and I had cleaned the board when she got off, so I know that it was him. He could be my little artist!!! He has developed some really dry skin lately, so bad that he scratched sores on his face. I have been trying everything to get rid of it, but nothing seems to help. Hopefully the doctors appointment will have some answers tomorrow. He has also decided to potty train again, woohoo!!! He goes poo in the toilet all the time now, but he still has accidents with peeing sometimes. But that's ok, I 'd rather clean the pee then the poo anytime, don't you agree??? Oh ya, he also loves Star Trek and loves the airplanes (spaceships) on the shows, he is always flying one now and makes all the sounds to go with it (zoooooom, pshew pshew pshew!)

Well this is the update of our family, thanks for reading!!! :)
