I realize that I have been horrible at blogging for the past six months. Well, even before that I was horrible. I had a goal of taking a picture everyday of our kids and possibly blogging them during the summer, but...I haven't done so well. I would like to blog about a few things today though to possibly let everyone know what we have been doing.
We finished school for the year at the beginning of May. I was super ready for it to be over. I felt like I was being run ragged. I am now officially working on my Bachelor's for Elementary Education. I started on it in the spring semester of this year, but now I am actually taking all my classes from Valley City State University in North Dakota. I have about 1 1/2 to 2 years to finish. I am hoping more on the 1 1/2 years. But, we'll see if everything goes as planned. During this year I taught piano lessons to four students and we had our recital on May 4th. It was good. I have now officially taught a whole year of piano lessons and I know somethings I can do differently to be more effective.
Another thing that has been going on, is that, for those who didn't know, I am pregnant and due August 4th. We are having another boy. We are excited, boys are fun and even though they are a handful, we have realized that boys are easier. :) Sorry to all those who think that girls are easier.
Kai's going to school for his Business Adminstration degree. He went in March to Minneapolis with the college SIFE group for their competition. I guess they didn't do as well as hoped, but it was a good experience anyway. He has also been busy taking scrap metal up to Billings which is tough and frustrating work, and right now is kind of slow at the moment. But he has been asked by a few people to do some welding projects for them, which he enjoys quite a bit.
Matthew went to preschool during the spring semester and absolutely loved it. He is ready for Kindergarten next year and all we know is he is going to Westside. I am a little nervous, yet excited for him. I hope to be able to go and volunteer as much as possible, but with as much stuff as I have going on next year, I don't know how much it will happen. He also just had two cavities filled and did super well. We have to go next week again to get two more filled and then he will be done. I don't know if the "laughing gas" helped or hindered the situation, but either way, he still did super well.
Mason, is ready for preschool. He struggled a little bit with Matthew being gone for three hours to preschool. Other than that, he really is growing up and has quite the personality. Sometimes, frustrating, but still as cute as can be.
Kaydee is growing up too fast, but is still our little baby girl. She definitely is becoming independent and she talks a ton! Maybe not to everyone, but when she is home, she talks almost nonstop. She loves to sing "I am a Child of God" and "Popcorn Popping". She absolutely loves her big brothers and wants to play with them all the time. She was so cute before when she couldn't say their names, she would just call them Boys, but now she can say their names and is even cuter!
It has been hard trying to do much fun this summer as the weather doesn't really permit lately. It seems like everytime we want to do something it gets cold and rainy. Sometime I suppose.
I have been doing a little bit more crocheting since school has been out and I found this super cute pattern for a sun hat and I finally finished it yesterday. I think that it is super cute and that the girl wearing is also super cute. So I don't know if I am showing the hat or the girl off more...either way.
