I haven't been on her for a while, things have been very hectic here and I thought I would give a little update of everyone. It's been about a month since
Harold was laid off at the radio station, and we are doing ok, he has since gotten a night job at Dominos, delivering pizzas. He is doing great in school working towards a Geology degree to become an Earth Science teacher. Still making his bio-diesel and still searching for buried treasure/gold, and still the best husband and father I could ever ask for.
I am still going strong in school and have about a year left at CSI before I can transfer to the Business program at BSU. I am loving school and the sense of accomplishment I feel, even though I just feel old around all the youngens there. I am also still working out almost everyday and it has become so much of a passion I am going to get certified to become a personal trainer/group fitness leader. The kids keep me busy and I love the smiles and laughs they bring to the house.
Tiger is in the 9th grade and stays busy with school and scouts and has a website he has started with his friends http://teamrejection.webs.com/ they make their own videos and Tiger edits them, they are actually pretty funny and he is the most computer savy one in the house. He keeps us entertained with his "teenage version" on funny and we just try to stock up the house to keep up with his teenage appetite.
Woody is his own kind of character. He is in the 3rd grade at Bickel Elem. He is very sensitive and notices everything, I can't even buy clothes anymore becuase he always notices and then asks Harold "Hey Dad don't you like Mom's new shirt?" and Harold says "You told me that was old" Woody also has a huge imagination, and loves the computer also. He plays sports but doesn't have the drive in him to get in their and get dirty. What he wants to be changes each week from "A weather man, to a Rock Star" He loves to say "Oh, snap" when he knows he is right, funny funny kid.
Regan is in the 1st grade at Bickel Elem. and is our little princess. She has an aide with her everyday at school to help out the teacher and she goes to Developmental Therapy after school 3 days a week. She also has speech therapy once a week, and once a month she goes up to Boise to have a session with Dr. Whitney, her autism specialist. She is very into animals right now, frogs, dogs, horses, almost anything. She now has more good days than bad and will be playing t ball again this summer, I will make sure to post some of that. She likes to wear dresses and call herself a princess, she likes to boss her little brothers around, so all in all she is a pretty typical little 7 yr. old, except that she is REALLY tall.
Rocky is hysterical. He is 5 now and getting ready for kindergarten next fall. With the faces he makes we could call him Calvin (if you are familiar with the Calvin and Hobbes comicstrip you know what I mean) But Rocky is enough of a nickname already. He is into telling knock knock jokes, they are horrible and don't make any sense, but he loves telling them. He loves dinosaurs, growling like any animal, wrestling with ANYTHING that stands in front of him and just being a cute little stinker. He is my baby and the only one left who will still sit on my lap and let me love and hug him and read him stories, I don't know how long it will last but I take my chances when they come.
I told him maybe to smile, but I was informed apparently rock stars don't smile, and guess where he got the horns, thanks dad.
And because Woody was a Rock star, Rocky wanted the blue hair gel and wanted to be in on the fun, he was just having a problem with the horns, too cute.
So, not exactly a rock star, maybe a little more devil, which is so fitting for this one.
Regan put on a pair of glasses that another girl had who was dressing up like a teacher.
A rare moment when both Tiger and Regan are in good enough moods to take a picture together.
