Fall in Retrospect




Here's a quick sum up of our Fall 2008 Adventures:

  • Jacob has been busy working on his doctorate. He also has done a ton of work for the apartment complex we manage (making screens, plumbing work, garbage cleanup, etc.) The new face lift looks good on the place.

  • Abi has been busy taking care of two wild/angel children. She is also directing her church ward choir (never saw that one coming). She also has been busy collecting rent and doing some major weeding for the complex. Other than that, she's been a home-body trying to get some much needed rest.

  • Ben had to have foot surgery on two crooked toes. We do toe exercises each night so they will heal right. He also has to wear these hard plastic inserts in his shoes to help correct his extreme ankle roll. Poor guy, he's been a real trooper.

  • Lizzie has developed a strong sense of fashion. She is opinionated about what we put on her. She particularly dislikes Ben's hand-me-downs. She's also really into dancing and Signing Time. We love our girlie girl.

We didn't know about those foot difficulties. That takes a lot of effort to keep up with therapy. Bless you and keep it up.

Are the hair styles suposed to explain the wild/angel children? J/k The pictures are adorable. I think Lizzy's opinion on clothes is hilarious. If I ever have a child that is so strong willed I'm going to keep a tab on how much extra money I spent on them and tell them they can pay me back when they are older.

Your blog looks great, Abi! I love those two kiddos. They're darling. Give them hugs and kisses from me. Love you! Hope you're feeling better soon.

EJ totally loves signing time and is also very opinionated about her clothes (especially for a 17 month old).

Your kids are so cute! You should come visit us more often. Kyle will be leaving soon so I need all the company I can get over here!

Abbi,
I love you my dear! Your kids are growing so quickly. They are beautiful. I hope all the therapy goes well for your hubby.
