Picture of mom

Well Hi Dad,
I figure this picture will look much more familiar! I sent this out to to everyone a few weeks back via email. Let's see, news from my household. I just started up a PT job with UPS, need some solid benifits. That kicks me out of bed at 2:30 am! Scott is beginning his next level of communication. (This is huge for a little guy with autism) He is taking who he needs help from by the hand and leading them to what he wants. He is finally learning how to ask for juice when it is not in sight. We are excited.
Katie's been writing cursive for a while, and it is becoming much more refined. She is one of the fastest runners in her class. She and two boys are sprinting it out and one of the three alternate winning. (remember Bridge to Terabithia?) She is also excelling in art.
Oh, LeDawn and I finally got to go out on a date this last Saturday. (That may be the second one this year) Included was Prince Caspian. I was surprised to find an extra battle that wasn't in the book. By the way, do any of you recognize the link between Bridge to Terabithia and 1)Prince Caspian and 2)Voyage of the Dawn Treader? (Huge hint, check out the Terebinth Tree)
Things continue to pull together and we establish our roots here in AZ. Let's keep up the communications, and who knows, maybe Dad will have something transcribed!

Our family picture comes in two for now!! Unfortunatly the one of us is the most recent one I could find from our Oakland Temple trip in March. The ultrasound was just last week when we found out 'it' is a boy!!! My new due date is January 31 which means we are just over half way there!! Very scary but so exciting. I wish we had something else in our lives to update everyone on but it looks like all you'll be hearing about for a while is baby baby baby news!
