Another Update

Well, I suppose it is time for another update. Sorry I am so bad at this. Part of the problem is I feel like I should post pictures, but we only have a video camera. It takes stills also, but it's just not as convenient as a point and shoot. Anyway, there will be no pictures, but I will tell you what's been goin' on around here. :)

Ryan is still plugging away at school. His next semester will be mostly animation classes, so it will be a heavy load. But he is excited. He also has been hired on as the animation lab technician at the school, so he will get paid to sit in the animation lab and do his homework. He's pretty psyched about that.

I am working full time as a secretary for Preventive Pest Control (any Albuquerqueans in need of pest spray, give me a call). My sister, Emily, works there, too, so it is really nice to see her so much. The kids have really adjusted to it well. Ryan's schedule has allowed him to be home with them most of the time and my family watches them when he can't. It is nice to have some regular money again, even if it isn't much.

Lizzie just started preschool at Shining Stars. They are the only public preschool in the area and we were very lucky to get in. She LOVES it! I can't believe she is in school. It is just crazy, but she loves every minute of it. She keeps growing out of everything she's got and has enough personality and spunk for two or three kids. I hope her teachers can handle it. :)

Aislin turned two at the beginning of this month. She learns 10 new words a day, it seems and we love hearing her try to pronounce things. She is ultra-adorable and she knows it. She and Lizzie are able to play together more than they used to, and we often hear them giggling up a storm.

I guess that is about it. We're just doin' our thing day after day. The kids keep growing and we keep plugging along at jobs and school. Everybody is healthy and happy and we're doing pretty darn well overall. :)
