Welcome to our blog...

After a busy few months of a surprise arrival, countless hospital and doctor visits, working on yearbook, birthday parties, and weddings, I finally have some downtime to create a blog! So to start, here's an update on our family...

Kenzi - she is already 3 1/2 months old....where has the time gone?!? She is still tiny -- about 23.5" and just over 9 pounds. We go to the doctor on the 23rd for her 4 month well-check so I'll have the exact stats then. Kenzi is such a happy baby....she hardly ever cries and is so easy-going. She absolutely loves her big sister....any time she sees Kylar or you say her name, Kenzi's blue eyes light up! And of course she loves Acey too!

Kylar - she turned 3 back on April 5th and she is something else! She is so smart, energetic, and sweet (but can have quite an attitude too)....she's our little firecracker! She just finished the school year in the Montessori I class last week but she'll continue to go 2-3 days a week throughout the summer because she loves school so much. Kylar is still taking gymnastics at Spirals and also swim lessons there this summer. We are planning to start her in soccer in September. Kylar was a flowergirl for Ryan (Adam's brother) & Kristen's wedding in May. She was so beautiful in her dress and even walked down the aisle much to our surprise. Seeing her walk down the aisle brought tears to my eyes (and Adam's too)!

Acey - he will be turning 8 this summer but he still plays like he's a puppy. His favorite things are playing fetch, tennis, and swimming. He's a great big brother!

Adam - he's busy with work which is a good thing. He still works at home as a software engineer and is working with JPL (part of NASA) on Deep Space Network. I think he finally accepted the fact that his only boy will be Acey...he is happy that he has two beautiful little girls and he loves them so much!

Ashley - after six years at Kennedale, I am leaving for a great opportunity in Mansfield ISD. I just got a position as an Instructional Technology Specialist...basically I'll be working with teachers to integrate technology into the curriculum. I am so excited and cannot wait to start in August! I have not returned to soccer after my ACL surgery last year. I still have a lot of rehab to do to get my knee back into soccer shape. Plus I admit I am pretty scared to get out on the field again. I'll be sure to keep away from 200+ lb men when I finally do play.
