Well.....I finally decided to come back to the blog. The weather is finally getting nicer and the kids would rather live outside right now. Madison just finished up with pre-school but still has one more year. That was really hard to explain to her since most of her friends will be attending kindergarten. But she is slowly grasping it I think :) She is growing up so fast I cant catch up. The things that she says and the stories that she tells you cant help but laugh and smile. Within three weeks she grew, gained 5 pounds and two shoe sizes. One day she was a 7-8 and the next she is a 10!
Jaxon is slowly starting to talk. He says up to be picked up and "ease" for please. He says the same thing for cheese when taking pictures. His doctor is having him evaluated to make sure there is nothing behind him not talking. He will be two next month and they say that he should be speaking at least 50 words. Jax understands commands and when he wants something he just points to it or he will bring you to show you what he wants. So we will see, but I am sure that he is just doing everything on his own terms. Jared is still loving his job with Target. He just started at his store in Springfield. I think that commute is kind of hard for him but he is suck a trooper he really doesn't complain. He has to be there around 4 so he has to be up at 2 in the morning and that way he can leave around 2:40ish. He gets off around 2 so the kids love that.
   We recently just took the kids to Hey Days in Heyworth where we live and the kids had a blast. Jax had a hard time waiting in between rides so he of course threw tantrums and made huge scenes but welcome to the terrible twos! Madison was in heaven and she literally will try anything at least once. If she is scared you can see it in her face and she will come off it saying she will not do that again!!!  Now that the weather is getting nicer we are able to enjoy it together. I look forward to the summer!
