Wow has it really been that long?

I hadn’t realized it had been that long since I had posted on here. Time really does fly by doesn’t it? We have been pretty busy with the kids, school, dr apts, being sick, the holidays and just living.

Evan had his school concert last week he was to cute. I took some video but we were back in nose bleed section and well you can’t even see him. He is doing great in school. He still isn’t being challenged enough but that will come I am sure. He has learned the art of how to get out of school. He got sick at school a couple weeks ago and quickly realized that if he complains of a tummy ache he can come home and doesn’t have to go to school. Tommy and I quickly caught onto this. Other than that he is anxiously waiting for Christmas. He so excited. He made the cutest wreathe at school yesterday and couldn’t wait for me to open it. I asked him if we could wait till Christmas and he told me NO and started opening it. It really is cute.

Scarlett is Scarlett. All drama. She has learned the art of snapping with attitude. I can’t seam to capture it on video. She will tell you something like. “I want to wear my red shoes” she will be moving her head, waving her arm and snapping at the same time. Think ghetto girl at the age of 4. She is pretty funny. She doesn’t always use it right but it is funny none the less. She is still doing tap and ballet. She LOVES it. She is really good at it. I keep wondering what style of dance she will really thrive at. I can’t wait to see what kind of dancer she turns out to be. She is still refusing to read. My mom even tried to bribe her with a doll house and Scarlett’s reply was why do I need that one I have it here and I have one at my house. Yup to smart. She is very excited about Christmas and her birthday. We are thinking it is a build a bear kind of year but we will see. You can ask her what she wants for either one and she replies. “I just want everything” this is while she is snapping her fingers. Scarlett also went to her 1st theater performance. My mom took her to see OZ. She loved it. The wicked witch scared her a little but he would have me to. He had blue hair. YES I said HE. She dressed up as Dorothy, took her basket and all. She had a blast. Now she calls Wookie, Toto.

Paisley is changing every day. She is so darn cute. She is of course feeding herself. She is sleeping thru the night mostly. She likes to wake up for about an hour around 10 and play and just spend time with Tommy and I. Paisley finally mastered the art of sitting up from laying down on her own last week. Then just today she started crawling forward. She has been going backwards for some time. The kids and the dogs have had it. She is starting to pull herself up. She has already taken a head dive to the floor the 1st of many I am sure. She has also mastered the love of Vera Bradley. She loves my purse. She has to carry one around the house with her. Or should I say drag it around the house. I guess I am going to have to get her one since I don’t want mine ruined. She is just so cute.

We had pictures of the kids taken over the weekend. I should have them sometime this week. When I get them I will post the for all to see.

Tommy and I have been the same. The baby is growing a lot and moving a lot. My dr says that he should be here mid January. He and the peds are keeping a close eye on the babies size since I tend to have big babies. We haven’t started on the nursery or on Paisley’s new room. Tommy is off all next week so we are going to start on it then. We are also still trying to finish up Christmas shopping. This year has been a slow year to get it done. The items that the kids are wanting are really hard to find, and really we just haven’t been in the mood for it but I guess this weekend we will finish up. Other than that nothing is new. I will really try to be better at updating more often I really just didn’t realize how much time had gone by.
