The things my kids love to do...

Well Peyton is taking on a new role of wearing everyone else's things. She loves to wear Steve's motorcycle gear, Destinee's clothes, my shoes and of course princess dresses. She loves to sing primary songs (which is so so cute). There is nothing better than to see your 2-year-old tell you shapes, sing the alphabet, play and sing primary songs. Destinee is growing and growing. She has become a wonderful mini mom. She always wants to hold Oakley any chance she gets. She is always trying to get her to do things she is not quite ready for, but nonetheless she helps a ton. Destinee and I have been doing a large amount of reading and school work together and she is quite the reader. I am impressed to see how well she can read a book. I'm a proud mom! She loves her new primary teachers and has a true love for the gospel already. There is no doubt that she will be ready to be baptized when she is 8. She talks all the time of growing up and getting married in the temple with a wonderful man just like her daddy. awww... I just keep telling her to keep that goal in sight!

No longer bored...

Well if I was bored in any way, I no longer am. I recently started doing a Medical Transcription course online and my hands are full. I am trying to put in anywhere from 6 to 8 hours a day of study time. Now I did work a full time job but for some reason this seems much harder with my three little ones. With Steve's schedules changing and having to do more for him has made it a bit tougher. I am thrilled though to have my brain up and running again (at least I think so)... I have great kids who can help and play well!! My congrats goes out to my sister-in-law who found out that she is having a baby girl. After having two boys I think any woman would love to have a little girl. So Kira I couldn't be happier for you! I also have excepted a call back into the primary as a teacher. I knew it was only a matter of time before I had heard, "Will you meet me after church Mrs. Chadwick?" It will be hard at times not having Steve there with me but I am thrilled to be back into serving in the church. I really enjoy our ward. They seem to be wonderful people, among the rest of the crazies out here.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Alright I was having a hard time writing 2010 on anything... anyone else having a hard time? It doesn't seem real to me. The year has started off well for us. Steve had a couple weeks off and that was enjoyable. As you can tell we did a lot of laying around because Steve was so tired, but the girls loved snuggling up to dad any chance they got. We were able to go and visit family and say goodbye to Steve's sister Brittanie. She will be leaving on her mission on Jan 27th making this my third missionary out. I have my brother in Peru, Steve's brother Kyle in Canada and Britt will be in Texas. Bring on the blessings!!!! My sweet little Destinee turned 6, yes you heard correctly 6 years old, and she thinks she is 16. Destinee woke up on her birthday and asked me why she wasn't big yet. I told her it takes years for us to grow. She didn't seem all that thrilled about my answers. She was expecting to be 4 feet taller and starting middle school. I told her not to worry because she will be there before we know it. I'm happy for the chance to set new goals for the year and I plan on working at them. (keep my fingers crossed)...

The move out

Well our move out to Roosevelt was kind of last minute and a huge suprise. Everything went great and we are now in our new happy home! We moved right before Christmas which was kind of crazy but Steve got to be with his family on Christmas which was the most important. Christmas was great and was loaded with every kind of barbie, baby, bike and coloring toy you could imagine. The kids couldn't have been happier (at least that's what I was told)! After Brian (Steve's brother) and Steve slept all Christmas day we got together with Brian's little family and had a wonderful Christmas dinner and then sent the guys back to work that night.

The beginning

Alright everyone I am new to this whole bloggin' thing but I thought this was my only way of keeing in contact with the human race, being out in Roosevelt and all. This is the coldest place on earth it seems. Watch for more to come!
