Update

So...I am officially living with my parents. It has been interesting, but we are adjusting. We are closing on our house on Monday, and our new house should be ready in a couple of months. We had some good news...Kyle's health issues aren't as bad as we anticipated, and after a biopsy on Monday, we can wait a year or two to begin the treatment. On the side of more bad news, I am having to have a hysterectomy on the 20th of April, so pray for that. My co-workers are wonderful, and are giving me plenty of sick days so that I don't have to lose my paycheck. Kendall had a round with strep throat during moving weekend, which yielded 2 trips to the Urgent Care after the first round of medicine made her vomit profusely. I am headed off to a night with friends this weekend, which I desperately need, and hopefully things will only get better.

If anyone still reads this...

So much has happened it is probably easier just to make a list...and I can't even promise that it is in order...
1. We have had the NEVER ending stomach virus. Why can't everyone just have it at the same time? Kendall started it on Valentines Day. A week or so passed and I thought the rest of us were safe...wrong...Addie started last week, then my mom, and then me. Kyle is pulling up the rear for us. I missed 4 days of work which isn't easy as a teacher, and now with snow in the forecast it looks like I won't be going tomorrow. At this rate I think I will just take off until next year:)

2. We sold our house, and are building a house is Tucker Chase in Midland. We will be moving in with Mom and Dad this month until it is ready. Pray for good weather!

3. We started going to church...or back to church...and it feels good. We had every intention of starting back after Kendall was born, and 3 1/2 years later here we are. The girls love their Sunday School classes, so it looks like it's going to be a good experience.

4. Kyle and I are both having some health issues, so keep us in your prayers for that. It looks like this year we just may have enough medical bills to write off on our taxes...talk about a silver lining!

5. I completed my portfolio for my National Board Certification and submitted it. Now I have to wait until November to see if I passed. It is crazy the amount of work a teacher has to do just to get a raise!

I am sure I missed something, and will try to post some pics soon. The girls are so big now it is riduculous! And they both came with attitudes just like their mommy, so that has been fun. I am sure the teens years will be an absolute joy:)
