Quick Update Post

1) Jake was accepted into the GT program and will start the end of October,  He was getting bored with third grade math so in addition to doing 4th grade reading/spelling he is now doing 4th grade math.  We have decided that maybe baseball isn't his thing.  We only have to make it through October and then we can move on to tennis.

2) Victoria is doing the same after school program she did last year and loves it.  She is going to be monitored to determine if she needs to be tested for a learning delay.  Ballet and Jazz is going so well.  Victoria is becoming such an amazing dancer and it is helping so much with her confidence.

3) Andrew just this week decided to walk.  Still doesn't really like because he can crawl much faster then walking but he is getting there.  He is also "talking" quite a bit.  We have him signing a few words which helps.  There about 10 words that we understand. 

4) I am half way through this pregnancy and find out on Tuesday if we are having a boy or a girl  The blood tests came back and don't show any signs of delays which is good.

Random:
Lee's cousin was married today I am disappointed we didn't make it to Utah but we had other things going on here.  We aren't going to Washington next weekend and have decided to stay here and rent a hotel.  Kids can swim we will order pizza and have a great time.  Now to figure out how to cancel the ticket we bought for Lee.  Our anniversary is next weekend and we are looking for a babysitter but Lee is so picky about who we leave the kids with that I am not sure that it will happen.

Two people in two days told me it looked like I was losing weight.  A few others agreed who were present agree.

Feeling all the Feels

Right now I am feeling all the feels. We had such a great week with my nephew and Jake. The house is louder and has more enegy when all four kids are home. And our nephew is seriously one of favoriate people. He lets the boys hand on him and they just look up to him so muchd. So I am writting because I am not sure what else to do at this pount. I have been applying for a job(s) that I have been inspired to do for a long time. I have been really trying to to step upside of my comfort zone and apply for things that I know I can do although I have never done them before. I have been considering doing some writing and writing a book. I have no desire to be published I just want to be able to start being more creative . I have so many fears about so many things. Missy Kay turned 19 today and Andrew had his first tennis meet of the seaon. I am thankful for my people who show up to support and love us. There was this moment at the meet where one of the parents gave me haug aft...

Time to dust this off

L:ong story short I came across something that made we want to add back to this. Not sure why but hwere we go. Life is constantly chaning and I feel so mnuch surround bu death lately. Not diredctly although I fee like that is coming but more just heartbreak for so many around me. Yesterday Victoria quailfied for state. It was an answer to a prayer. I prayed she would qualify and felt strongly she would. As we left her away at the meet she was certain as were we that she hadn't qualified and then the clouds parted and she will be able to run. She told me she prayed that she would have a good last high school race. and her last race was not grea. There were tears. And rears when she called me to tell me she qualified. So rad trip to ther side of teh state next weekend Wednesday Jake is going through the temple. So many mixed feelings for so many reasons. I shouldn't expect people to show up but sometimes it is just so hard when my mom is the only "church...

It has been a week

Here is how the week went Monday: OUr 25th anniversary. I was sick. We went and tried a Cuban restrant not as good as the food we had in Miami but it was good. We love trying new local places. It ended in tears. I won't go into all the details but I am relaizing that this is not the marriage I want. I am open about what I need and we will go from there. Luke started wrestling. Tuesday: End of the year banquent for Luke and Andrew. Luke recevied the "Most Improved" Awared. Here is the thing about that. His coach talked about how during summer practice he wouldn't even run 100 yeards. He would just stop. At some point after the first meet it clicked and he just ran and did what he needed to do. He went up adn accepted the award with such confidence. Wednesday: Both boys had activities. Andrew had stayed home from school due to not felling wel. My guess is he just needed a rest. He was feeling up for going and making pizzas at the Bishop's hous...
