I'm Back!

Well.... I'm back to say that I'm dusting off the ole' blog after almost 6 YEARS!  I do not promise any frequent updates or overly exciting news though.  Just updates of the happenings in our crazy life!

When Nash (now 1) was born,  I realized I hadn't even bought a baby book for him yet... but then looked at the other 2 boys'  incomplete books and just decided I better save my money๐Ÿ˜‰  So it's a wonderful thing that Brysen has a photographic memory and can help remind me of all the milestones in our family and for Facebook timehop of course too!  I set some goals at the new year and blogging was one of them so what better time to start than now again!

An update on our family:  (lots of changes in 6 years)

Brysen is almost 7 and I'm 1st grade.  He loves school, sports and his social life.  He stays busy in REC activities, Clover Kids and church.  He still has the red hair that he was born with and remains the "firecracker"  of the family!

Jax is almost 5 and in Preschool this year.  He loves school, reading, coloring, animals and playing outside.  He loves to ride the bus 2 days a week and always is full of stories from school and daycare. He is definitely our quiet one but is getting more and more less timid as the days pass!

Nash just turned 1  and is definitely our hand full!  We've never needed cupboard locks, toilet locks, or stuff put up or away until he started moving!  He walks... ok, runs, everywhere and definitely keeps us all on our toes! The big boys adore him and he loves them just as much.  He has definitely been a blessing for our family this past year more than we could of ever imagined.  He gets drug along to all the other boys' activities and seems to tolerate it all pretty well.  He doesn't have much of a schedule and is my worst sleeper but guess that's what happens when it's boy #3.

I am still a nurse at Home Health in Sibley,  working 3 days a week. I have acquired some hobbies the past couple years that keep me both busy and sane!๐Ÿ˜‰  After the 3rd boy,  I believe more than ever that I need to have my cup full before I can fill anyone else's cup.   I have become a morning person... which if you knew me even a year ago, you would of thought that was never possible! And I will admit, it was life changing and I can't believe I missed out on that time of day for SO long!

Brian is still at the elevator in Rock Rapids and takes care of pigs.  The boys get talked into doing chores and appreciate the $3 pay per building.  Brian is definitely looking forward to the days that they can do the chores themselves ๐Ÿ˜‰

Nothing else to report tonight but will update with some current pictures and holding myself to keeping this updated at least twice a month!
