Long Lost Us......

Yes, we are well!!  I keep promising to post more often and it just does not happen.  So....I am done apologizing for not posting more often.....I will just do the best that I can. 

We have been doing great!  Both Gregory and Maggee are amazing!  They are doing great.  Gregory's favorite things right now are Legos, Calliou (On Demand TV), his BB gun that he gets to shoot with daddy, and just getting some time to play outside.  Maggee loves carrying her little purse around, singing all of the time, Barney, and pushing her babies in her stroller. 

This past weekend, we went to the Chipmunks movie and Gregory loved it.  He had so much fun at the movie while Maggee had fun playing at Aunties house.  On Sunday, Jon and I took the kids to the Sportsman Show.  Gregory loved seeing all of the animals there and especially loved catching two fish there.  He was so proud of his fish, he had to hold them in his lap on the way home (in the bag of course).  Maggee just kept pointing at all of the animals and saying, "deer". 

Both of our kids amaze us on a daily basis.  Gregory is so smart.  We can not believe the things that he remembers.  He is always making us laugh.  Maggee is talking more and more every day.  She is also at a point where she knows what we are talking about when we talk to her.  They are so very much fun...

And then we have the not so fun moments.....Gregory is getting better about his language (shutup and stupid, I mean).  He is learning that saying those words when he is angry do not have fun consequences.  We are enjoying that he is making better word choices lately.  Maggee is quite the tantrum thrower.  When she is angry, she will throw quite the fit on the floor or she starts swinging.  We are working on it....Yikes!

Jon and I are doing great.  We are both busy with work.  Jon started at his work with a new crew and the site and new machine that they are working with have presented him with some challenges to say the least.  He has had a rough couple of days, but still tries to come home with a good attitude.  Hopefully, things will get better soon.  I have been busy at work with lots on my plate.  In addition to teaching, I am on two different committees as well as trying to aquire lots of clock hours in order to bump up on the pay scale next year.  I have also started selling Scentsy.  I enjoy that, it takes little time, and brings in a little extra money, which is nice . http://www.kimschmitz.scentsy.us/ 

We are looking forward to having my mom stay with us for the next few weeks while she recovers from surgery.  We love to have her. 

For now, I must get......clothes to fold and put away.
