Family Update

Hello friends and family! Here's a little bit about us and what we've been up to:

Brent, works at RR Donnelley, a printing press company. He has been there for about 6 yrs. He runs the machines there. He doesn't absolutely love it, but it pays the bills :) He is busy working 12 hr. shifts, graveyard, but will be switching to 8 hr. shifts next year. He will still be on a graveyard shift, but hopefully he will get more sleep! He also watches the kids in the morning while I go to work. He is a very supportive husband and father, and I love him so much!
He loves to play basketball, and is looking forward to church ball when he can play more.

Kara, works part-time at Spring Creek, as a special ed. aide. This is my 5th yr. here, and I absolutely love it! I enjoy seeing the student's progress over the school year, and it is so fun to get to know them :) I also am very busy with two little boys, and try to keep up with church callings, blogging, scrapbooking and the daily chores and errands. I am on the Enrichment committee, and in charge of Activity Days with the 8-12 yr. old girls in my ward. I also love to read, and wish I had more time to do so.

Brayden, is turning 3 in less than a week! He learned to be potty trained this year, and is now sleeping without a pull-up! He kept waking up dry for 3 weeks straight, so we decided to go for it, and he is doing really well. Only one accident, in the past two weeks. He knows all his letters and is still learning colors and shapes. He loves the t.v shows: Super Why, Word World, Clifford and Curious George, and now he can't get enough of Thomas the Train. He loves playing computer games on PBS Kids, and would all day if I let him.

Tyson, is just over a yr. old and is walking around! He says a few words: momma, dadda, no, uh oh, please and thank you. He loves to mimic sounds and loves music. If he hears any on the t.v. or radio he will start swaying back and forth. He will even dance to the commercials :) He loves his brother and wants to be wherever he is. He is such a sweet little boy and is growing so fast!

We hope you all have a wonderful holiday season. Merry Christmas and have a very happy new year!
