A little update

Happy New Year!!! Well things here are moving along at a fast pace, isn't that what happens in life?  I have looked at pictures recently and I am so shocked over how much my kids are growing.  Especially my oldest who is definately a teenager.  He is now as tall as me (shhhhh.... I am telling him I am a half inch taller, I know I can't pull that off much longer.... LOL), he has a deep voice like a young man and is starting to test his boundaries instead of being so easy going.  I still can't complain often, he is a good kid. This month we will be looking at a few high schools, yes I said it HIGH SCHOOLS for Ryan to choose from. Ethan well I love him to pieces but he is just a different child, he is much more hmmmh how do you say.... laid back? (trying to avoid the word that I would like to use) Just praying we can guide him to being the young man I know he can be.  Then again its the first year of middle school for him and we all know how that transition is.  He is busy with Scouts, Soccer and Band (Ry is doing all but soccer since he fell out of a tree in August) Anyhow, Miss Megan aka my Diva.... she is blossoming and going through all the lovely hormonal things that girls go through.  She can be such a delight when she wants to :) I love them all dearly.  My poor hubby is still traveling down to our old stomping grounds in PSL.  We miss our buddies down there tremendously, but we are trying very hard to make new roots up here.  Business has not been good but I am going to try very hard to grow our business this way.  We really need Daddy home more often, but for now we are thankful and blessed to have the work down south.  Me I am just trying to keep up with these kids and the house.  Not to much to report, have applied for a few jobs with no success.  Times are so hard and with Rob traveling I still have a certain schedule I can do to get the kids to and from school.  We have also increased our fur, feather and fin population.  We now have 11 hens and 6 roosters.  We have been getting eggs, which is pretty cool! We also have 3 pigs of which 2 are the boys FFA Pigs that they are showing next month  (Houdini and Mack Truck) and 1 was actually given to us (her name is Babe).  We have 4 dogs Roxy (14 months) & Moxy (8 months) are sisters and are German Shepards.  We also have Sadie (3 yrs) a jack russell and one of her puppies Abby (4 months) who is a jack russell/ Cairn Terrier Mix.  We still have our Sushi kitty and have added Scooter (9 months).  I know we are crazy but we really enjoy our babies! Well that is about all for now, my eyelids to shut so I can sleep which has been difficult lately.  Hope to come in and make more updates.  Thanks for reading and pls leave me a comment if you stopped by, even if its just HI!!
