Nie is back!

Nie Nie is back after 5 months since her plane crash. I got choked up with tears when I saw her first post for the year. She is amazing. Spend some time checking it out and click on one of my Nie buttons on the side bar. You won't be sorry.

Photo Collage! :)

I haven't had much time to blog lately so I put together a photo collage of all the photos that I have been wanting to blog about! There are the cinnamon rolls that the kids and I made from scratch one day while we were home and had a sweet tooth! The other is a cake on one of those sweet tooth days (we get those all the time around here!) The others are just randoms of the kids painting and coloring, oh and my stylish diva Adalai in her stylin shades ;) And saying that she is a robot w/ her block "boots" on... Hilarious!
Anyhow, busy weekend coming up... Have a good one!!!! :)

Bored of being home, but should find out the sex of Em's baby today!

Nothing much new is with us. We have been inside since the insanely cold weather has hit! I took the kids out for a bit yesterday morning and Adi was already crying because her fingers were cold by the time we got out to the Jeep! It was a miserable half our it took for us to run to the Pig! ;) So, after naptime, we go down into the basement (while I get some laundry done) and the kids play with their outside toys while I fold. Today we were going to visit my Gram, but she wasn't feeling well, and Ben asked that I not take the kids anywhere in case the Jeep decided to feel the cold too, and decide not to start or something. Good call. So instead here we sit and watch the Jungle Book while I blog and then we are going to play Play-Doh while I clean :) Sounds fine to me! I am excited to today because Emily should find out if we are going to expect to be Aunt and Uncle to a niece or a nephew! I prayed before bed last night that the little one would cooperate so they can in fact see the... well you know... or lack there of of the, you know... So, we'll see!!
I am thankful to be in today, it is just too cold. I think that I am going to need to run to the grocery store yet again for some food. Anyhow, I need to get to work with Wyatt on his work book that we do. He learns a lot while we work on it, just gets impatient or finds it fun after a little bit of studying, that it would be better to scribble all over the page! No biggie! We just need to work on some shapes and colors. Do you even know how had it is to work with a toddler though that would rather just say "I dunno..." Oh well though if I am patient and persistant with him, he does very well. Guess he must not love structured study (gee I wonder where on earth he gets that from?), but we are going to work on it!
I started the Perspectives on World Missions class this past week, which was wonderful! I have reading and homework to catch up on, so I am going to be starting that today as well!
Anyhoo just a small update. Nothing too exciting going on!

End of Flu... FINALLY!

Well it looks like our baby has finally recovered from her almost 6 days of having a stomach virus. Poor girl. We stayed home from church this morning because of it though, we didn't want to infect anyone!

We have been home A LOT lately... which is kind of a bummer :( Hoping to get out an actually have something to talk about next week sometime!

Next week is kind of a big week though...My sis starts her new job Monday! Congrats Kir!
~ Nie is back next Friday! After 5 months of recovering at the hospital from a private plane crash, she is returning to her blog to tell her story... I am SO excited about that
