It's Time

After spending a year in the black hole of facebook, I've decided to stop neglecting my blog :)  Here's our some of the happenings over the last year.

JULY 2012
Macy had Chicken Pox.... for nearly the WHOLE summer...  Now that we know she has pretty bad eczema, I think what we thought was leftover chicken pox (waiting to scab over so she was "safe") was really just eczema caused by the chicken pox.  Poor girl spent almost all summer indoors and out of the pool.  So sad.



AUGUST 2012
My first story was published in Jack and Jill magazine, Mike turned 35 and Macy lost her first tooth!






SEPTEMBER 2012
Macy learned to ride a bike.  Jane started preschool!






OCTOBER 2012
Mutti and Papa visit and Halloween - of course!!!

Botanical Garden trip with Mutti, Papa and cousins




NOVEMBER 2012
Cole turned 11 and built marble tracks for almost a month straight :)


My 2nd story was published in The Friend, "Jumping Rope with Emma"



DECEMBER 2012
I turned 35.  Jane turned 4 and Christmas :)






JANUARY 2013
My Mom came to visit (the highlight of the month for me) :) My little girls saw a Barbie car (this was an important life event for them) :) And Cole's science project went on to district. Yay, Cole!



FEBRUARY 2013
Another Haircut, Macy's 7th Birthday and Mike and I's 14th Wedding Anniversary.



MARCH 2013
Family trip to San Antonio. Jane's first haircut





APRIL 2013
This month has been really low-key (I love low-key) .  The only highlight is that Mike is job hunting to leave the teaching profession after 7 years (still has a job, just very burnt out).  Not sure exactly where he'll end up, but we'll let you know when it happens! :)

Love you all!!!

  1. I love it when you update your blog. Love the pics and videos. And Anna asked me who these kids were...guess that means we need more pictures and interaction with your family. :) Love you guys! Good luck on the "hunt". I have truly found no enjoyment in our hunt the last few months. So...yeah...have fun. :D

    1. Ya... we're not the best communicators, but yes, hopefully he'll be hired in the next few months :)
