Not too much is going on these days but I manage to feel like we are so busy. Hmm...maybe it's my two year old that keeps me insanely busy!
Noah- Is now a 2L!! 2nd year law student that is. He finished up his first year about two weeks ago. Finals were rough this second semester! I don't know what it was but it seemed to drag on forever! He is still waiting on his grades...crossing our fingers. I'm sure he did great. We were able to have a few days of him home which is so great! We worked on house projects, went to the beach, gym, and just played. So, if you know Noah, this next sentence may be a teeny tiny bit funny. Noah is turning into a gym rat! I know. But seriously, he has been every day except Sun. the past two weeks!! He says he is gonna be ripped by the time we hit the lake in July! If Noah's family is reading this, I'm sure they are rolling on the ground by now!...haha! Anyway, he started summer classes this past Monday. Mon.-Thur. nights 6-9...kill me now. I just keep telling myself, it's only for 6 weeks! He also is doing an externship for a non profit firm so he is right back to being busy busy.

1 yr. worth of Law books)
Me-I had a great Birthday thanks to the best husband ever, great friends, and our families. I went out with some friends to Uno's and it was such a fun night! My friend Amber made the most amazing strawberry cake from scratch...I'm still thinking about it! I don't know what I would do without my group of friends...it makes living here so worth it! I have also been trying to work on my fitness (as Fergie says it). My goal has been to get to the gym at least 5 days a week. I've been doing pretty good...some days it just doesn't happen. Mothers day was great. Noah and the kids made Cafe rio burritos for dinner...I would have paid $20 for mine! Noah had the kids make videos for me telling me what they loved most about me...it was sweet. A few weeks ago I threw my friend Tabbi a little baby shower. She just had her baby on Fri. and I was the chosen one to be on call...which I headed over to her house at 5a.m. so they could head to the hospital. It's the second time someone has asked me to be "on call" and it really makes me feel so special!
Brody- Is doing so great in Kindergarten. Every time they get progress reports back, his teacher right the most sweetest things about him and tells us how she loves having him in her class and he is a leader for the class. He is such a good kid! He is getting to excited about 1st grade and going all day. His class had a little Mothers day party for all the Moms. It was so cute to see how excited all the kids were to have their Moms there! Then they sang about 5 songs for us. Brody's allergies have been acting up quite a bit lately. But luckily his inhaler does the job pretty quick. This past weekend, the boys went up to Father and sons. Brody had been looking forward to this for weeks! He is such a camper and loved spending time with Noah and Ronan (and his best friend Kellen).
Sadie- Finished up her year of pre-school. She did so great and loves to learn! I taught the last class so we made Mothers day gifts and cards. She is sooooo excited for Kindergarten!! She talks about it non-stop. Mainly for riding the bus. She tells everyone "I'm going to AZ in July and when we get back, I'm going to Kindergarten!!!" She continues to be our little pistol but she has some tender sweet moments too...sometimes. She has so many friends and is usually out playing till dinner time.
Ronan-We are learning so many meanings behind the phrase "terrible 2's". Ronan is by far more active then my other two were at this age and gets into and destroys everything in sight! (I think I have mentioned it a time or two). We had to put up a baby gate to block of the kitchen because the TWO locks on the fridge were not cutting it. It's the first time I have ever needed a gate. He thinks he is soooo big. He is starting to ride bicycles and scooters and HAS to go everywhere the older two go. He loves to swing and would sit and be pushed for hours. He is talking much more lately and just starting to put two words together. He still HATES to go into nursery but now loves to go the gym...we take what we can get!
