Catching up......

I know that I am WAY behind on my blogging! Sorry! School has been keeping us busy! And due to major back pain I have been unable to blog. I have a bad back and every once in awhile it flares up and makes it very hard to get thru the day. Still not feeling the best but I am going to try and put a few pics on here.

Caleb has discovered VEGGIE TALES! ;o) He LOVES them and begs to watch a Veggie tale movie. He says 'Bob' now and tries to say 'Veggie tales' as well! He is so CLOSE to walking! Should be anyday now.... He does his share of climbing and testing to see if Mommy has changed her mind! "Buddy" and "Ba-ba" are still his heroes! He also loves going outside and feels left out when the older kids go out and leave him behind! He is at such a fun stage right now!

Abby is doing well in Kindergarten and learning her letters. She loves to do 'Art' and wants a new project everyday ;o) She is a 'Big Helper' with her little brother and loves on him so much that it drives him crazy! LOL!

Ben is doing very well and already made lots of A+ on his tests for school! He is really getting reading and how fun it can be and his Math skills are improving everyday. You can usually find him out playing baseball or sitting at his desk drawing trucks and cartoons.

Becca is plowing through the 5th grade and getting good grades as well. She has been bitten by the cooking bug and has made several pretty and yummy dishes lately. I LOVE being able to ask her to make dessert for our supper and she does a great job!

Danny is enjoying his full-time job and is in the middle of doing some landscaping for their company . He hopes to be busy with Fall Clean-up just around the corner for his business. He will also be taking on-line classes again soon toward his degree.

I am so busy somedays that it makes my head spin! LOL! I am getting back into my Pampered Chef business as well as helping with various church activities.

The FOR SALE sign remains in our yard, yet we do not have any immediate plans to move at this time. We have began to un-pack banana boxes and we are settling in for the Winter ahead of us.....it is suppossed to be a bitterly cold one! :o( Despite not being able to move, God has given us a peace and a contentment as we wait on Him.

We are enjoying this beautiful Fall season as God's paintbrush paints the leaves glorious colors!

He was very proud of himself for learning how to

stack blocks!


Checking out G-pa Hirschy's motorcycle.

My beautiful flowers that Danny surprised
me with after his trip out running errands!

Here she is with her pretty Fall cake
that she baked, designed and decorated!
It was delicious!

He was thrilled!
