Reentering the blogging world...

Much has changed since my last post.
We moved from Idaho back to ND, to a new house in ND, to my in-laws in Idaho and BACK to ND.  We added Landon and Londyn to our family. The kids grew. We survived a year of financial hardships the likes of which we have never known. And the list goes on.

Updates on everyone individually:
Landon and Londyn:
Landon and Londyn came to our family in August 2014.  When I found out I was pregnant, Addy was just 10 months old. Just after her year birthday, we found out it was twins!  The pregnancy was rather uneventful, other than I got HUGE...They were born at 37 weeks 6 days weighing in at 6 lbs 10.5 oz and 6 lbs 11 oz.   They spent some time in the NICU for pneumonia and pneumothorax, but came home very healthy and have been relatively healthy since.
They are crazy busy and A LOT of work, but they seem to complete our family well.

Adalyn:
This girl is a PRINCESS through and through.  She is a little Momma to the twins and loves to help with them.  She is sassy and smart.  She has her oldest sister completely wrapped around her little finger.  I can't believe she is already almost 4!

Konnor:
What a sweet, funny boy Konnor is.  He has a most contagious laugh!  He loves doing karate and collecting Pokemon cards.  He and Blayke are best friends. They do everything together.  He is in 1st grade, but since we homeschool, he is doing second grade math.  He is so good about grabbing his Scriptures and sitting down and reading them.

Blayke:
Blayke has grown up SO much the past few years.  He is still a little wild, but has calmed down soo much.  He also loves karate and Pokemon cards.  He has a soft heart and is always up for a hug.  He is still my biggest Momma's boy!

Cierra:
WHAT A YOUNG WOMAN THIS GIRL HAS BECOME!  I can NOT believe she is almost 13!  She is smart, funny and beautiful.  She is courageous in a way a lot of 13 year-olds struggle with. She is not scared to be herself and to set others straight if they are being unkind.  She has been doing MMA and is SO strong, physically!  She is my best friend.  I love this girl, and am so proud of her.

Woody and I:
We are just doing our thing. Woody still drives truck, and I still stay home with the kiddos.  Our marriage has flourished through our trials.  I don't believe we have ever been stronger. Not perfect...But pretty dang good!!

My goal for the upcoming year is to be better at keeping up here.  I have another post planned, and will hopefully get it posted tonight!
