Ok, it has already been a month since I had an update. It seems only like a couple of weeks. A lot has happened in the last month. Here goes...
Elizabeth received her first report card with amazing grades, academically and citizenshiply (Is citizenshiply a word? LOL). She started basketball and has had two games. Her team kicked heiny both games. I should add that she made two baskets the first game. Yeah! She is now officially a teenager. The big 13! I can't believe it!
Alesea received all 100% in a round of kindergarten testing. She also has two loose teeth. The fun part is her first two permanent teeth are halfway grown in right behind the two loose baby teeth. Yikes! She was sick for two days the last week and a half, just the two days were a week apart. She is doing well now. She has been having fun with a new friend that I babysit after school for an hour.
James is still throwing fits and tantrums, but has his adorable moments too. He still can't get enough of trucks and cars. He is learning so many new words and new things, he amazes me every day. His new argument is any time we ask him to do something his response is..."YOU!" As in you do it. He is getting big, but still has no desire to start potty training. Any tips or hints from any of you out there?
Mike is still working for BD. He went "surfing" with a couple of his buddies at the new Solamon Center in Ogden about a week ago and enjoyed that, even though he took a beating. The Solamon Center has fun games and activities including rock climbing, surfing and swimming, indoor skydiving, video games and I think bowling, among other activities. We both would like to try the indoor skydiving sometime, as well. (I'd prefer that over the real thing any day.)
I quit my job at the Target Portraits Studio because the hours were too crazy. I was working 5-6 nights a week just to get 17 hours of work. I am now working in the Macey's Grocery Store Deli. It has been a good job so far. I especially enjoy the times when we are required to sample meats, cheeses, and salads so we can tell the inquiring customer whether they are good or not, or what the flavor differences are, or what we recommend. I really like the people I work with, and the time goes by fast. Plus, I work more hours than at Target in 3-4 days. That gives me more time with family. I have been busy taking portraits of several families for their holiday cards and gifts, as well.
As a family we finally went up to the Uinta Mountains and cut down our Christmas tree yesterday. We took our snowmobile and a couple of sleds and made a day of it and played around. It was freezing, but we had a great time.
We hope everybody enjoys the Holidays. Merry Christmas and just in case it is another month for an update, Happy New Year.
