I have been thinking for several days that I need to post something because it has been almost a month since I have posted but nothing new is really happening - and I HATE my camera so I avoid taking any pictures with it and I usually like to post with some pictures. But I just can't hold out anymore - so here is a little update, as of January 23, 2009.
Olivia is doing amazing! She is growing like a weed and is as cute as can be! She has the most hilarious personality. She understands the concept of making people laugh and she loves to do it. She loves her right thumb and the corner of the purple blanket my aunt Cori made for her. She has absolutely NO FEAR - which makes me nervous and Dan proud.
Ethan is so great! He is loving 1st grade and his girlfriend (of 1 1/2 years) Piper. They hold hands and he saves her a spot next to him on the rug in class. His teacher claims that it is the cutest thing she has ever seen. He is a fantastic student - he's at the top of his class academically. He is getting ready to start Little League here in about 2 months and can't wait.
Spencer is fantastic! He has such a happiness and joy for life. He has this amazing gift for words too. He has always been that way, I can remember when he had just turned 2 - we were watching some BMX trick show on TV and the kid on the bike did this crazy twirly loopy spin in mid air and little Spencer said " That was incredible!" I just started laughing - what 2 year old says that?! Anyways, to this day he continues to amuse me with his use of words. He is also excited for Little League to start - as are we all....
Ryleigh is wonderful! She is such a ray of sunshine in our dreary Oregon life. She is so happy and bubbly and just great all the time. She is totally into fashion and looking pretty. She is also really into WiiFit Yoga, aerobics and strength training. She is great in school too - she is always at the top of her class and this year is no exception. She loves Livy to pieces and spoils her rotten.
Dan is doing good. He is going to school full time right now - which takes up a good portion of his time everyday. We are hoping that he will be able to get into Nursing school in the fall, which will eventually lead into more school and becoming a physicians assistant!
I am doing good too - I just work a lot! I am also still the Vice President of Softball for the Little League here in Albany although since I have been working so much I have really been slacking on my duties.
Life is good for us here, for now. We reserved our moving truck for June 20th to move back to Arizona so keep us in your prayers that we will be able to get the money together to actually move this time. My parents are trying to move back with us, my mom keeps threatening to move before June which would be HORRIBLE! Don't leave me here.......

Wish I could be excited about moving. And quit bashing Oregon you sun lover!
You can hear the love in your voice. What lucky little kids--to have parents who love them so much!
I have highlighted June 20th on my calendar. Can't wait...
I miss you guys so much! They are getting too big-- so definitely make it here to AZ for the summer! Maddox sends kisses and hugs!
I am feeling your pain with posting plus facebook has sucked me in. We can't wait to have you around more. Good luck and you are in our prayers!
