undecided...

story of my life right now...  but, especially on what to do about the blog...  if anyone has suggestions, feel free to shoot them my way.  i put pictures on shutterfly.  if you want the link, shoot me an email!

but, here is our life.

nora can read.  she can really read!  i am so proud of her.  she also reads just like me.  she skims.  and thinks she knows what it's going to say.  only for the bigger words right now.  but it's what i do when i read!  however, i am so AMAZINGLY proud of her!  (mommy moment to brag...  she is reading at a first grade reading level..  the way they do it, it's 6 months in to 1st grade!!!)  she has rough moments at school, and i am trying to figure out the emotions of a kindergartner.  and so sad to realize that girls are girls, even at 5 years old.  but it seems to be better now.  and i am spending a lot of time praying!!!!

this week, she did a puppet show about Jesus and the first Christmas.  and then about Jesus and the first Kwanza.  and then Jesus and the first Hanukah.  and Jesus' ladle.  it was sweet!!!

james.  he is 3 and a half.  and all of it!  he's also a middle child.  he's so fun.  and so sweet.  and so rambunctious!!!  i love him.  and i try to give him the attention he needs.  today, i went to his Christmas party at school.  they did this "jingle walk" up the street, singing.  it was so sweet....  he wanted to hold my hand the whole time and lit up that i was there!!!  and then, he kissed me.  and kissed my cheeks.  and my nose.  and my forehead.  he is getting really good at swimming.

christopher.  he LOVES to eat.  i mean, LOVES to eat.  it's so sweet!!!  he LOVES to eat.  and move. and he wants to be a big kid.  SO. BAD!!  he still army crawls everywhere.  and fast.  he crawled up the stairs to the landing the other day.  by himself.  so, it's about time to get the gates out!!!  and he pulls up.  on everything.  he's so big!!!  he's chatty, and smily, and so sweet.  such a good baby.  he has the prettiest blue eyes and blondest hair!!!  and i love when he laughs!!!

we are staying busy... enjoying having david home and being a family.  we went up to the north shore the other day to do waimea falls.  and the falls were closed.  but, they were filming "hunger games" there.  super cool!!!  the falls were closed because it hasn't been rainy and there was no water!  so, we went to the beach and had a blast!  there were no toys for the kids.  and they had the most fun!!!

david and the kids are in the Christmas play at church this weekend.  it's so fun to watch them.

so, until i decide...

Loving the blog, Michelle! Bummed about the photo thing, and unfortunately I don't have any good recommendations on what to do besides deleting old photos (and maybe videos since those take up lots of space?)... Miss you guys and fondly remembering our trip out to see you this time last year!
