Update



I think its been a while since I posted un update on our crazy busy family. Its been wild but a lot of fun lately.
Dman is a full blown " tweener". He spends all his time texting, listening to his mp3, acting way more mature than he really is and goofing off to much. The kid is always having fun. Sometime we have to remind him that we are his parents- not on of his " homies". He also has become the " babysitter". He is doing a great job at it. Drew and I have gone on 3 dates to the movie theater ( which is 4 mins from the house ) and he has done a great job. Dad has talked to him about being a good babysitter and not being mean to his siblings like he was when he had to babysit. So far so good. Of course I text him every 10 minutes to check in and he is always sweet and reassures me then says " go enjoy your quiet time with daddy we love you". I have saved that text and read it often....

Amber is taking a hip hop class and the dance studio by our house and she LOVES it. We can be anywhere and she will bust a move. We get some weird looks from the " snooty's" out here in blackhawk when she start to pop and lock it down the ailse at safeway. I just smile my proud momma smile. She got a new phone for her birthday so she has also become a texting queen. Thank goodness for verizon and our ulimited text plan !!

Tyson is tyson. He just finished a rocking soccer season. He hasnt decided if he likes to be called " beckham" or " ramses- the greatest luchadore of all time". His team did great and he will be joining them for indoor this season. He thinks he is a spy and sneaks up on us all the time. I caught him out of the corner of my eye while in the shower- do a james bond roll from one side of the hallway to the other- leave me a note that he wrote me- then roll right back and outta the room.

Ava is just stinking hilarious. We try so hard not to laugh especially when we should be disciplining her, but sometimes you just cant help it. Her prayers are so long and latley she has been asking to get help winning the games she plays with her siblings, especially bonoboly. yes, its monopoly but not in her language. At church a while back, of course loudly during sacrament meeting, she said " daddy look- you match that guy right there- you are both wearing white shirts with cupholders !!!

As for us old folks- we are having a blast hanging out with these creatures. Just taking it one day at a time and enjoying every one of them
