I did it!

I have been asked a few times if I had a blog. I have been thinking about it for some time. I set up my account weeks ago, and today decided it was time to just get to it. So here we are, online, with pictures and stories for all our friends and family to see.

JJ is now seven and one half months old. He decided yesterday that crawling was something for him, and hasn't stopped yet. He is crawling all over the house now and Samantha has even gotten him to chase her. JJ thinks that Samantha is so funny. We have 2 stairs in the house that JJ as attempted twice, but it results in a fall to mom's arms.

Andrea is three years old. She is my thinker. She would love to spend all day doing puzzles, 56 piece puzzles. Or string beads, or even cut a piece of paper into very small pieces. But she also loves to play outside with Samantha.

Samantha is five years old and about to complete kindergarten. She has loved every moment of school this year. She is excited for the school year to end, but I am sure that after only a couple weeks of summer vacation she will be asking when school starts again.

Jamie is keeping busy at the fire department. He has recently been transfered to fire prevention. He is now doing an 8-hour a day job instead of 24-hour shifts. We are both enjoying it a lot more then we thought we would. Although, there are a a few times that having every-other day off would be nice.

I am keeping busy also. I take Samantha to school and pick her up every day. I also spend my days trying to get our house in order as we just moved not to long ago. I am also expecting our fourth child in August, a little boy.

Well, that should be enough to get every one caught up. I will try to write more as life happens. We shall see how this goes.
