I'm back

It's hard to keep up with blogging, and other blogs. I seem to go in spurts. I need to just focus on a few blogs and that's it. I've gotten into myspace a little bit, mostly because my brother lives on the other side of the world for certain reasons serving our country and I wanted to have better connectionwith him. It's only helped a little. And I feel that my time is so limited when I get on the computer I just gave up on blogging altogether. But what do I do when I'm on?? Well since we live in the middle of no where we've done a lot of online shopping from the comforts of home sending gifts to family on the mainland. Strangest holiday season so far. Not really purchasing too many gifts from stores, but it's good to not deal with the crowds and feel overwhelmed by all the commercialism. And no matter what you still end up spending too much time just looking before you actually decide on something...anyways, it's late and I should be in bed since I've been up since 4:45 am but I'm running on adrenaline right now. I helped put together a bridal shower and we had the party tonight and there was so much involved in getting it together with the food prep and all of that other stuff. I'm tired, but it was good and I think the bride was very blessed by it all.
Elijah is now finally weaned at 16 months of age. It happened naturally, it was a good time, and maybe I'll write more about it, we'll see. It's so strange for me to not be pregnant or nursing and to just be me and have my boys. I feel so blessed to have this time, and Lord willing it will still be at least a while longer before we have another one. I really would love to have at least one child potty trained before we have a third. And I can't wait to enjoy a glass of wine:) Tomorrow night will be the special time:) Kendal Jackson Riesling. Good stuff:) Moses just learned how to say his name a few weeks back. Now he refers to himself in the 3rd person a lot of time. "Mo-es help, Mo-es sit" it's sooooooo cute!!

I'm so glad you're back! I check your blog every day hoping that I'll get a little update on your life. But, I understand the busy thing, completely. We're having a nice quiet Christmas over here and it sounds like are, too. Have a Merry Christmas!

I'm glad to hear that you guys are doing so well! God is faithful, isn't he? I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas! One of these days we will need to get our little guys together, you know :-) If we're ever in the Hawaii area we'll definitely look you up! We thought we were going to go this summer with Kyle's dad but it didn't work out because of youth summer stuff. Maybe some day!
