Well yes I have been slacking with this blog, we are not dead, and we still love Grandma and Grandpa very much. Here is a little update from us...
We are loving being in our new house. We are pretty much settled in for sure now. We are loving the neighborhood and we like our ward a lot. I've been trying to meet the neighbors slowly taking cookie over to each one around the street to get to know them. It seems like it should be the other way around but I decided to be more out going and not wait around for people to be my friend. Its been working out well doing it this way too, so I'm glad for my attitude change! Preston has already spoken in church and is now the ward chorister. I don't know how I've flown under the radar in the ward but I have. It has been a bit of a challenge sitting by myself through the first part of the meeting, because Preston's on the stand. Sacrament is more of a challenge with the two kids and being "in tune" but we will get better at that. Kya, as usual, loves nursery and is excited every week to go, it's just trying to get her to sit through Sacrament Meeting. When the Sacrament is finished and the Decans are going back to sit with their family Kya always says in a loud voice, "Yay, Nursery!" Every week we have to explain that there are still speakers, songs, and one more prayer left. I am glad that we do have some good kids, they really do pretty good.
I have been being pretty crafty lately. I think it's got a little to do with trying to find a place for all of our stuff in our new found space, which is just a bit smaller than the last place. I have to get creative in storing things and I actually have been enjoying doing so. I've been trying to be a bit more organized with the space I do have which is nice. I'm slowly getting my walls decorated now, it is fun to have picture on the walls again. I didn't hang a thing in our big house knowing we wouldn't be staying and all.
Kya is truly a little girl, she is so smart and comprehends everything! She still loves her nails painted and has to have a bracelet on all the time. She has an imagination, she can make things up and play for a long time. They both love to be outside with our chicken and turtle.
Baden is a super happy, fast little guy! He get where ever he wants really fast. You can tell that he can't wait to be running around with his big sister. He is always happy and so super sweet. He is determined and gets frustrated if he can't do what he has set out to do. He's got 7 teeth now and more on the way.
Preston is still working really hard. Now I know why he says he wishes that he lived back in the day that you lived on a farm and you got payed base on how hard you work. Because it doesn't always work that way now. We have faith that we are in the Lords hands and he will do with us what is best. We are doing what is right and trying our best.
So there is something... I know there was quite a few of you that got together for something special last Thursday but no one posted about that, hint hint Kent!
