Well, I am back....

Hi everyone, I am so sorry that I have neglected to keep our blog site up to date. I have been reading every ones Blogs though and they all look great. The last two and half months have been so crazy with the kids, dance class, Command Ombudsman duties, Pottery Barn and yes as if all that was not enough I started baby sitting three other children on Tuesdays and Thursdays. My to do list seems to never shorten these days. We also had Tim's sister here visiting in January, that was a fun time with Aunt Mary. For the last four weeks we were dealing with one of us each week was sick. So I have missed Church for 4 weeks due to that. I can not wait to return tomorrow! During the last few months we were also waiting to find out what Job Tim would get for his next set of orders. This was a relief and an answer to prayer when he found out that he is going to the "New York". It is an Amphibious Ship that was named after the city because of "911". It is being built in New Orleans and will be Commissioned at a special Commissioning Ceremony in New York City in the spring of 2009. This is all very exciting for Tim and he is looking forward to it. It was also an answer to our prayers because he will NOT have to go to Iraq for a 14 month tour. Though this is an answer to our prayers it will still be hard to be apart from him for 12 to 15 months. The girls and I are going back to Michigan while Tim is in New Orleans. Paiyton starts Kindergarten in the fall and we don't want to be moving around during the school year. I am not going to talk about Kindergarten right now because that makes me cry, my first baby is getting so big. The girls are doing great. Paiyton is loving the schooling we do here at home this year and Emmah well, she is TWO now, need I say more. I think the terrible two's have begun. I will be doing my best to keep our site up to date, talk with you all soon!

Glad to see you are up and running again HA!! It was good seeing you yesterday even if it was just a quick hi:)

I get sad too thinking of my baby being big enough for kindergarden.

I know what you mean about the "to do list" just when you think it slows down something else kicks into gear doesn't it.

I'm so glad the orders Time got were answers to prayer for you all.
