Long, long, long over due update

Wow it's been a very long time since I have updated this. I am sorry to anyone who has actually checked on this regularly. I am going to try and keep this updated again. I guess it's time to play catch up.

Since May we have only had a few changes. Biggest of all is in September we moved from our first home together to a new town home. It was a much needed move, we were all very cramped in our old house. We still have the same number of bedrooms, but we have more bathrooms and a lot more room. It is a 2 story home where all the bedrooms are up stairs and the rest down. It has given us a much larger living room and a dining room which we did not have. Finally we can all sit down at a table together! Last of all it gave us a fireplace! We have enjoyed that very much this winter.
Other than the move everything has been pretty normal stuff. Lucas is now in 4th grade but he is in GT so he is doing 5th and 6th grade work. He loves it all and he has also joined a basketball team. He hasn't had a game yet just practices. Haylen is in 2nd grade and doing 4th and 5th grade reading. She has also joined a basketball team, she has had a game but she missed it due to being in Iowa visiting her mom. Keaton still isn't in school because he wasn't 4 by the cut off for Pre-K and we didn't get the paperwork filled out in time for him to go to Head Start. He will be going to school though next year and is very much looking forward to it! Chloe is right on mark and maybe a little over for her age. She is talking and working on potty training already. Marcus is still working at Sherwin Williams and working on his writing. I am still a stay at home mom, but I did take a math class at the college during the fall semester. I am taking the spring off though but will be back to taking classes next fall.
I wish I could say we have all managed to stay healthy but I can't. We all managed to be sick one right after the other with the Swine Flu back in late September and early October. Luckily we all got over it without having to go to the hospital. It just took about a 3 or 4 week chunk of time out of our lives. Thankfully none of us have gotten sick since except for the sniffles every now and then.

Well this is all I am going to post for the time. I will add more as I think of it or as it happens. Pictures will be added as they are taken, if you would like to see pictures from the past 7 months look me up on Facebook and you can see them all there. Love to all!
