It has been quiet some time since I last posted. It's hard to believe we've been in ND for almost three years now. The snow is deep and it's not even January. Somehow I've become accustomed to the cold and snow. Preparing for the weather becomes second nature. Reagan wants to wear her hat and beanie even when we're not going anywhere, and when I get Charlee's coat off the hanger she holds her arms out ready to put it on. Kindergarten has taught Audrey the proper way to dress - she now accepts snow boots and snow pants. Jacob, on the other hand, is another story. He is a t-shirt and shorts kind of guy, and now that his dream is to be a wrestler he prefers to wear underwear only.
Audrey is five and in kindergarten. She enjoys the socializing most of all, and enjoys participating in gymnastics. Jacob is four and attends pre-school at Escuela, participates in martial arts, and plans to join the local wrestling team in February. Reagan is three and now that Audrey is in school she has become very attached to me. She is the sweetest, kindest little girl I have ever known. Reagan is polite and soft spoken (unless arguing with her siblings). Charlee turned one in August. She isn't bigger than a mite, but feisty.
Carl works for Key Energy in coil tubing and I continue to be a stay-at-home mom while attending NDSU part-time. He works lots and lots of hours (105 last week) so that allows me the extra time to do my school work.
