Welcome back!

That title was mostly to greet myself as I start blogging again. It has been just over a year and a half since my last post about Steve & Nikki. They are doing amazingly well and I love to hear about their progress.

As for our family a LOT has happened since the last post. We added a new little nugget to our family. Ella Teresa was born on April 20th and will be turning ONE next month. I'm in a small bit of denial but coping. lol I love the amount of girliness she has brought out in me. I find myself making bows for her headbands, playing dress up with a little human doll and figuring out that hair product isn't just for the big girls. It's so much fun to see part of me in her. I look at my baby pictures and it's slightly startling to see such a resemblance. LOVE IT!

We bought our first home after James' promotion out in Wolf Point, MT. It's a ity bity town of 3500 people. I know, I know, everyone who really knows me is wondering "WHAT THE...?" Well life has it's twists and turns and here we are in this curve ball...hahahaha.. bad analogy but still you get the point. I am happy to have a home for our family and to have the ability and means to work from home doing graphic design and still get time with my kiddos. I like that I don't miss out on any of their accomplishments and we have a great time together.

Jayden will be turning 4 in June and well the denial continues... lol He is LOVING all the room in the new house and definitely utilizing the backyard. He has a great ambition to learn about anything and everything including his Dad's job. He already wants to learn to "push all those buttons for the trucks" and is constantly asking me when we can go visit Dad at work. He's beginning to read small words and sounding out more and more letters. His time at Little Miracles definitely gave him a great jump on his education.

There is a lot of unpacking yet to be done as well as painting and rearranging. But we are enjoying opening each box like a christmas present. Who knows what's in it. lol
