Long Time No Blog

Well all, I don't really know what to say! I am so sorry for neglecting this blog - hopefully, someday, I will find the energy and time needed to be a successful blogger. And by successful I mean managing to keep up with it at least once a month! ha ha

So what's up in our lives? We are all doing pretty well. Ava is in heart of her first year of pre-school. She is learning so much! She is always impressing us and making us laugh. She told us a few weeks ago (after showing her a new shirt for summer I bought her with a whale on it) that her favorite whale was an Orca. What 4 year old knows what an Orca is?! She also recently was able to name the planets. She likes Mars the best, because its red and there are aliens on it - LOL!!! She's growing up so much now too and is about 42 inches tall and 43 pounds. She loves all things Tinkerbell and Princesses and just pink in general. She also loves Barbies and told me recently she wants her 5th birthday party to be Barbies...but she'll change her mind a hundred times between now and then so I am holding off on the Barbie napkins for now :)

Ella is just hysterical. Her speech has exploded in the past few weeks and she has a lot of knew phrases "I did it" "Tadaaaa!" and "Oh no, what happened?" are my favorites. She knows way more words than she can say now and will do a lot of things i ask her too (for the most part). She's about 27 pounds now and I am not sure how tall she is....guess I need to measure her! She's in 18-24 month clothes pretty solidly now...I can't believe she'll be in a 2T before too long. WHERE did my little baby go???

As for Phil & I - we are doing well. Just staying busy and working at being the best parents we can be. I took a job teaching night classes 3 days a week at West Virginia Business College. It's a pretty neat experience and makes me think i would have made a pretty decent teacher. I may even consider pursuing this as a career...who knows? The schedule would be much nicer, for sure! ha ha

I think that's about it. I need to get some pics up here of the kiddos soon :)
