A long while...

Yes, it has been a long while since my last post, but you know how it goes...busy,busy, busy. Well a lot has happened since last time. To start Sarah is now in Kindergarten and is loving every minute of it. She is already reading level one books. I am so proud of her. She has made a ton of new friends. She has grown a few inches and now is about a head taller than her peers. Hannah is in her second year of preschool. She loves it, but has a hard time opening up to friends. Hannah is getting ready to go into kindergarten in the fall, and says she is excited to be a "big" girl like her sister. Hannah is talking a lot more at home and has been engaging in conversation with her brother and sister. For those that do not know Hannah goes to preschool for speech, and we have been working on it at home too. I definitely see an improvement. Aiden is still my little brute. He is so big for only being 3 years old. He is now heavier than Hannah only by a few pounds but still. He is wearing a size 4 in pants and 5 in shirts. Everyday he looks more and more like William, so handsome. He is a very active boy and still loves to wrestle with his sisters and dad. Alexandra is still as cute as ever. She is now 10 months old, and weighs in at 15 lbs. She has just started to crawl, and is quite happy to be able to move on her own. Her smile could quite literally light up a room.
Now for the big change.... We bought a HOUSE!!! I am so happy and I love our new home. We moved from West Chester to Batavia. We live in a Ryan Home. We bought what is known as the Ravenna. It has a finished basement with a full bath. The main floor has an open concept, which is why I fell in love with it. The morning room is perfect for the kids to eat breakfast. William has an office now so when he need to work at home he can go into his office. Upstairs we have 5 bedrooms, two full baths, and the laundry room. I love that the laundry is upstairs where the bedrooms are makes it easy to put clothes away. One of the bedrooms is my craft room, which I was quite happy to have. I did want a place for just that reason. It makes me very happy to finally have this home. I just love being able to come home to my own garage and not worry about parking spaces anymore. This is a dream come true for me. So because we moved into a new home we moved back to the eastgate area, and I am in the Eastgate ward. I love my new ward, they are all so friendly. There is a lot of people that I knew in Cherry Grove ward too, so that makes it nice. I am happy to be back here.
