Much Needed Update

Well again it has been awhile since I have updated our blog. Life is just as crazy as ever. Dax was promoted a while back at work and usually works about 95 hours every 2 weeks. He is also pretty busy with school. We don't get to see him too much so we can't wait for the day when he is home more.

Ryan just turned 3 last week! I can't believe he is already 3! He didn't have a great birthday, so good thing he isn't really to an age where he cares yet. He threw up on his birthday and then had diarrhea for like a week. Not fun (for either of us). On a lighter note, he is becoming such a big kid! He rides his bike like crazy now and can work a computer better than a lot of people older than him. He is just like his dad. He loves video games and anything electronic, and doesn't like to listen to me when he is busy with them :) He loves to make his sister giggle. A while back I had put Chloe to sleep and then I couldn't find Ryan anywhere. Then in the baby monitor I heard giggling. Apparently he had sneaked into Chloe's room and got in her crib with her. I was mad he woke her up but I couldn't help but laugh at them.

Chloe is now 10 months old! My kids are just growing too fast. She has been crawling for a while and now likes to walk around the furniture. I don't think it will be much longer until she starts walking. Ryan walked at a little over 10 months and I am hoping she doesn't do that. She cruises up the stairs super fast and has been doing that since she was 8 months. What is with my kids who feel like they have to do these scary things so early? She is a little attached to her mom. Ok, a lot. I love it but it makes it hard to do anything. It probably didn't help that she slept in our room until she was 9 months old :) Whenever I have someone watch her she is fine until I walk in the room, then she cries like crazy. I think she likes to make me fell guilty for leaving her :)

As for me, I am pretty boring. I don't really have much going on besides having my hands full with the kiddos. They sure keep me on my toes. I have decided that sewing and crafting are totally my stress relief. I have starting making hair bows like crazy. I am going to try to sell them and see if I can help a little and bring some money in. Since Dax doesn't usually get home until midnight or later, once the kids are asleep I start crafting like crazy. There are a lot of other things I should be doing but they just don't seem as fun.

A while back my side of the family went and had family pictures taken and I think they turned out pretty good. I would show them off but blogger doesn't like them apparently. So all you get is a bunch of boring black and white words. I will stick some pictures on if I can figure it out later. (And I will post the cute Halloween ones soon.)
