Life Is So Busy. ..

Ok so I am feeling rather guilty that I don't do enough to preserve my little families history. I need to catch up the the baby books, take more photos of my kids with my nice camera, and document on here.
So here I am. . .
Here is a weekly 10 update:
1) We just retook some family photos I wasn't in love with ours from November so, I made everyone do it again. Rod, Camille, and Taryn helped us out.
2) Trent and I have both been shedding some pounds and it feels great. We are eating less processed foods and more fruits and veggies....so much more energy. It feels good like we are on a team together.
3) We are still working on house plans but home to be done soon. We have started over three times. But, we want to make sure its right. We have also sized way down!! Feels great!! And the barn is knocked down and getting hauled away as we speak....wahoo!! I have waited 5 years for that!! We hope to break ground on our house the next year. Can't wait. This 1400 square feet feels pretty cramped sometimes. And the one bathroom is killing us....but we will have to make it work until we move.
4) Hudson turns one this month and I can hardly bare it.....so sad but yet so exciting. He keeps me on my toes, I don't know what I would do without him in my life. He completes me and our cute family so well. He cut his first tooth this week and is starting to walk. He also still loves to nurse.
5) Lyla has come out of her shy shell this year and I sure am proud of her for that. She even punched a kid in the face that had her pinned down....or so she says...every day she gives stuff in my house away to others. What a sweetheart.
She can also be very hardheaded and not go potty for hours.
6) Evelyn is thriving in school and loves every minute of it. She is in love with reading and math. She can read 135 words a minute and the average for second graders is 80. At least that is what her report card said. She has lost 2 teeth and is my big helper. She makes her lunch by herself every day and is very responsible. Her and Lyla get along...and then they don't !!
7) I am staying busy with these 3 kids, and wife duty. I love it but sometimes get so overwhelmed with life and the tasks that it requires me to do. I started teaching my Pilates class back in Jan. at our church building and it is pretty stinking sweet. So relaxed there and I love that class can be free. Pilates completes me and makes me so happy. It is very fun having something to do for just me again. I have also been busy with photos here and there. I truly love it, but making time for it all is tricky!!
8) We got a new sectional the other day that we love!! I mean really love. Trent sleeps about 3 hours on it every night.
9) Trent and his Mustang are one big happy family together!! It is pretty slick looking and he is one proud owner. He is just finishing up with the stereo and seat belts right now.
10) We have finally been saving for our house and it feels great. Saving makes you feel in control and is so powering. I am convinced I have the best hubby in the world and he is so hardworking for our family!! The kids adore him so...
