Let's try this again...

So, it has been a whole year since I last posted and I kinda missed it!  I mean, I am not a writer by any means, but I missed documenting the kids lives.

What's new?  Alot...well not alot but since it has been a year, alot.

Hagen:

• 6 1/2 years old
• loves video games and iPads
• getting pretty good at baseball
• starting to really talk back
• loves Hazel but knows how to push her buttons pretty bad
• still quite sensitive
• still naps on the weekends for 2 hours...not sure if he is sleeping the whole time
• VERY picky eater
• Sprite is given once a week and he loves it
• Really into his money and always wants to go shop with it
• Loves man weekends hunting and fishing.  He is a GREAT fisherman!
• Cropdusting is a favorite...farting out loud really...gets OLD
• Still hanging at 39 pounds...can't break the 40 pound mark!!
• Still fully believes in Santa and Hazel looks to him for information so she is excited too!
• 1st grade is going good...his penmanship is not great...in fact it is pretty bad so we are working on that.  It is fine when he takes his time.  Doctor maybe?
• Really good at Math and reading...reading?  Really?  Must be from my Mom...

Hazel:

• 3 years old
• Sassy pants
• Loves to talk about toots, poop, anything potty related...so it is confirmed she is mine
• LOVES to put "makeup" on...very girly

• Drawing is a favorite
• Likes to be a mama...she has lots of babies.  Cory is our new addition and she loves that baby.
• Picky eater...only wants cheese!  LOVES cheese...and milk
• Trying to stop biting her nails.  I paint them when they are long enough to look like she hasn't bitten them...blue is the current color
• Got a tricycle from Santa and loves it
• Takes long naps on the weekend with me...2-3 hours! 
• loves to go shopping...even if it is to Kroger.  She can last a good 3-4 hours at the mall no problem as long as she is in a stroller...
• She likes to sing...
• She is in a twin bed!  No more cribs in this casa!!

Dapper:

• he is 11 years and 4 months old and is starting to show his age
• Having knee surgery in a week due to torn ligament
• loves eating grass and then immediately barfing it up...most of the time in the middle of whatever room he is in. 
• Hazel has been loving on him recently.  Hagen wasn't as close to him, but Hazel is...it's cute
• FINALLY likes a dog bed...never been a fan until he hit 11.

Ryan:

• Last year he drank the cross fit juice and is hooked...
• Because of above, his behind has hit an all time "HOT" factor...seriously
• Because of above he eats palio...which makes meals even more random (my food, kids food, his food)
• Work is going well and he still loves what he does

Carrie:

• Still love my job
• worked out alot this year but took the last 3 months off...WHY did I do that.  Now I am struggling with getting back into it and it is hard.  :(
• My eating habits have fallen to a BAD place...new year!
• I cut a bad habit this year that I am SO proud of...been since June.
• I'm really hoping my car dies this year...not wanting the expense but I'm so over my old Pilot!

This past year we had to have the front yard re landscaped...it was a big job so we outsourced it and it looks GREAT!!!

Hopefully I will be better about this blog this year.  I hate that I skipped a year.

Cheers!
