Hey all! Well, I'm sorry I haven't updated in awhile. Things have been crazy, but good!
Let's see... our summer ended with a vacation to Rockford and Cincinnatti. It was really fun. We saw lots of friends, some museums, baseball game, and more. Greyson preached at Mt. Olive, and did an incredible job! He has truly found his calling.
We had birthday parties... it's hard to believe that Gideon is 5, Mia is 3 and Nathanael is 1!!!! Time sure flies when you're having fun!
Gideon started preschool at Mt. Calvary in Brentwood. He is loving it! He loves his teacher and the friends at school. He goes 3 days a week in the afternoon. The hardest part about him going to school is that Mia wants to go too.... her time will come!
I have started attending MOPS (Mothers of Pre-Schoolers) and they havea program for the kids, not unlike Sunday School, and Mia thinks that is her school. So, when people ask Gideon about school, she pipes in... "I go to MOPS!" It's quite exciting for her.
Nathanael started walking rightat 13 months, then we all were sick, he had a fever for 4 days, and so he gave up walking. After he felt better he started crawling everywhere. We decided to help him along. He loves grapes, so we would hold grapes and he would have to walk to get them... he remembered how to walk in no time and now he is almost exclusively walking.
Classes are going well for Greyson. It's going to be a tough year class wise. But, he has always been good at academics, so I'm sure he'll pull through just fine. This quarter he is taking Passion Narratives, Homeletics II (preaching), Pastor as Counselor, & Systematics. We're getting into a routine finally that really allows him time to study.
Let's see... my nephew Jaxon was born September 5. He will be baptized this weekend! WOOHOO! He's adorable. The kids are so excited to have a cousin!
We're taking Mia to the ENT Dr. tomorrow to talk about tubes... she's had 7 ear infections in 12 months. and we're getting to the bad time of year for her... so we'll see what they say.
We just found out that Gideon is not getting any better in regards to his milk allergy, the egg allergy is very low, but he's also allergic to dust mites, mold, grass, and so on. I am slowly learning to be a better housekeeper, dusting twice a week instead of once every 6 months or so... the only thing is is that both he and Greyson need to be out of the house when I dust because it stirs up enough to bother their allergies/asthma.
Anyway, we're getting it all under control.
This past weekend was the Seminary Women's retreat, it was a great time with a great speaker on Women's leadership. I was on the planning committee and it turned out really well. we had 42 women come. I hope we're close enough that I can attend next year!
I guess that's all for now. I'll find time to post some pictures soon! :)
God's blessings! ~Mendy
