Comments are working.

Since I moved over to blogger I have been having issues with the comments. Basically there were none. So yesterday I finally figured it out. YEAH...they are finally up and working...I am probably the only one excited about it but hey why not.

Evan update.

Wow I can't leave him out. I just don't have any pictures.
Evan has been pretty busy with school. Tommy and I have been so pleased with the school that he is attending this year. I was pretty concerned since it was a school district that I didn't like. But I can honestly say he is thriving and I am so pleased with what he is learning every day. He amazes me with what he is learning.
The other day he came home and was telling us about the presidents. A 1st grader telling me what presidents are which one. CRAZY. He is counting to infinity. He is reading well above his other classmates. He is just thriving. He got his 1st interim report and did great. The only thing we need to work on is his handwriting. Other than that no complaints . His teacher said he is excelling. I am to thrilled with him.
Evan is no longer in his Karate class he didn't like it due to the fact he couldn't fight people. We tried to explain this to him before hand but he didn't get it. We are now considering putting him in some kind of music lessons. He asked for drum lessons yesterday I told him he had to be 15 for that one. I would love for him to play the violin but looks like guitar is what he wants. That is ok to. As long as he finds something that he loves.

Scarlett update

Scarlett has been a busy little girl.
She started dance a few weeks ago. We switched dance schools this year. We loved the one that we were at but this one is a tad bit closer and we can have her in 2 classes for about $7 more than the 1 class last year.
This year she is taking Tap and Ballet. She loves it. The first week of class she was a little resistant to do tap. We try very hard to keep her from stomping her feet. It was hard to get her to understand that this was alloud in Tap class. She understands now and is having a blast. They are doing the tap to the Disney Mania. So the music is right up her ally.
Scarlett has always loved ballet. She is just a natural at it. She walks on her tippies all the time so it just comes natural. They are teaching her the correct techniques to do and the correct words for it. She is just having a blast with dance. I am so glad that we have found her passion at least for now.

School on the other hand has been a bigger challenge. She wasn't doing well getting up that early and every day she went was a huge battle. Last Tuesday was the breaking point. She was throwing a fit when I put her in the car and then Tommy took her and she refused to get out of the car for him holding onto the door screaming. We decided at that poin when Tommy brought her back home that it wasn't worth it. So Scarlett is no longer in school and she will be getting her preschool from yours truely. She is doing really well. She has been having problems writing her name. But she finally has it down today. She kept forgeting the A in her name but now I have tons of papers that she has writen me today showing me that she knows how to correctly write her name and she is all to proud of her self as she should be.

Paisley update

Sorry it has been a little on the crazy side here. Paisley has been a tad bit fussy. Between cutting teeth, diarrhea, and tear duct surgery not much time for blogging here.
Paisley had her tear ducts opened on Friday. She had to have this done due to the fact that her tear ducts were completely closed. The Dr told me that this is hereditary. I had it. Evan had it (his opened on it's own) Scarlett had it (surgery for her) and now Paisley. She did very well. She was very fussy on Friday from it and her eyes were bleeding all day long. Yesterday it was a little better and today a little better than yesterday. Hopefully all the issues will be gone soon and she will be a happy little camper again.
The good news is that since it is hereditary and the chances of the next one having it as soon as I notice it I can call the eye dr and get it done ASAP. That way we don't have to wait the 6 months of dealing with her gross eyes.
Here are her before (the reason for the surgery) and then today. As you can tell it isn't all cleared up but much better.

And the sex of the baby is...

A BOY!!!!!
We are so excited. We will have the perfect family. Not that it wouldn't have been perfect with another girl. But 2 girls and 2 boys. What more could we have asked for. We have been blessed with so much.

1st day of school

Scarlett had her 1st day of pre-school today. She was so excited. Last night she went and picked out her clothes and got her back pack all ready for school today. She had some issues waking up early this morning but thank goodness we didn't have to worry about getting Evan ready at the same time due to him being on a Fog delay.
Evan, Paisley and I all took her in for her 1st day. She was so excited. She had no problems leaving me. She actually wanted me to leave so she could go play with her new friends.
She came home all excited to have spent the morning making friends and playing. This week in school she is just getting used to everything going on. Next week they will start learning about apples. We have been working at home on her letters and her name. She is having some problems with her letters but it will come. I think she actually knows them she just likes to play like she doesn't.



Scarlett by the door where Evan takes his school picture every year

Paisley 6 months.

Can you believe it. Paisley is 6 months old. She is 1/2 a year...HOW DID THAT HAPPEN...Time has just really flown by. She is such a great little baby. I really couldn't have asked for a better one. She is smiling and laughing. Rolling over and attempting to scoot. Hopefully soon she will be crawling. She is still having problems sitting up on her own but with a head like hers I am sure it tends to topple you over LOL..
Since we have been such awful parents and haven't had time to take her to get pictures done we did some here at the house on our own. Hope you enjoy...

Evan's 1st day of the rest of his life.

My little boy started 1st grade today. I can't believe how time really does fly. It really seams like yesterday he was born. But 6 1/2 years later he left me to spend more time with somebody else. He was thrilled to go to school today. So much that he woke up at 5am. He is going to learn so much in the next 12 years of his life and this is just the beginning.
He is such big boy. He started a new school and to wanted to ride the bus on his very 1st day. His sister hasn't known what to do with herself today, other than follow me around asking when Evan is going to be home. It will be so exciting to see the paths that he chooses as he continues on with his education. Oh the places we shall go.

Busy Busy or just Lazy?

I didn't realize that it had been so long since I last did a blog. I swear I am much better at this...I have been pretty busy at least I think or I have been pretty lazy others may think. OH well.
We just returned from Tommy's sisters house. We went up there to celebrate my niece Sophia's 1st birthday. It was great to get away and share this special day with family. Christie did a part traditional Korean 1st birthday. With the tol table and Sophia wore her Tol-bok ( I always thought that it was called something different.) The party went well. The kids had a blast with their cousins playing. It was so nice to get away. I am sure Paisley didn't think so. She is just a child that doesn't likes to travel. She didn't sleep well the entire time we were gone. Needless to say I don't think we will be traveling with her for some time.
Paisley is growing like a weed. She is 5 months now. She is developing such a personality. She smiles and giggles all the time. She talks a lot. She is trying her best to move around it just isn't really happening to well. She is sleeping thru the night (when we are home and not traveling) She also got her ears pierced a few weeks ago.
We got some not so great news on Evan's school last week. We didn't get in. We were in open enrollment last year and were hoping we would be able to return to that school this year. But no such luck. We were declined due to the 1st grade class being to large. BOOOOOO...Right now I am not sure where we are going to go. I am not happy with any of the choices out there but I guess I have to choose soon.
Scarlett is ever so excited to be getting ready to start preschool. She has been talking about her new school friends (which she hasn't even been yet) She will be going 2 days a week. She can't wait. She is also getting ready to start a new year of dance. We are switching dance schools this year. She will be taking 2 dance classes. Ballet and tap. She loves dancing.
Everything else is going well. Please continue to pray from my family as decisions need to be made regarding my grandmother. Life has been difficult and it is wearing on all of my family.
Oh I forgot. I had an ultra sound 2 weeks ago. The baby is doing great. So we are still on trac for February.
Sorry there is no pictures. Somehow I managed to forget my camera this weekend. So I have to get some from my in-laws.
