It's been much too long since my last post, but it just seems like time is slipping away so quickly these days, so I thought I'd do a quick update of the past 6ish months or so...
Brevin finished up his first season of rocket football this fall. It was so adorable (and slightly nerve-wracking) to watch those little guys run around in football gear. It seems football is just genetically engraved those little wee-wads because they sure seemed to know what they were doing. Since Daddy was the head coach, he was able to get some extra practice in on the side which was nice for him. He ended the season with quite a few yards rushing, a few receptions, 4 touch downs, and a 2 point conversion (oh, and I shouldn't forget the tackles too). I was a proud mama to say the least. School is going very well and he is learning SO much this year! He is a manager for the Varsity Boys Basketball team this winter and has spent a lot of time on the road with the team, but it has been a great learning experience for him, and I've watched him grow up and mature so much.
Laneybug is growing like a weed! I can't keep pants that are long enough on her little legs! During Brevin's football season, Laney had her second season in soccer. She is much more interested in playing than hugging this year, but the hugging is still pretty prominent! She just loves the socialization of soccer, and her aggressiveness on the field is still "developing." She has been such a fun companion for me this past year. She loves the color pink, shopping with mommy (and grandma) and adores princesses. She started the AR reading program in school and is progressing in her reading skills at an astounding rate! Again, I have to play the proud mommy card!
Jamee and I have managed to stay on top of our busy schedules and still spend time with family and friends. I was able to pick up a flex schedule at work so I only have to spend 4 days at work, which has been great for us. I'll be starting my master's classes this spring but it will be at a much more relaxed pace than before and I'm really looking forward to beginning (and ending). Jamee is still driving many miles to work for the furniture company, but we're are just very appreciative that he has work at all. He is staying extremely busy as an assistant coach for the boy's Varsity Basketball team, but it has been very rewarding for him, and I'm very proud of the work he is doing. It has also brought many new people into our lives that I truly believe will be good friends for many years...
