2007 a look back

2007 was a super fun year filled with new additions, vacations, and happy memories. Faith was born on March 6th, the summer was fun with barbeques and a fun vacation to Virginia. Throughout the year I took pictures here and there with my many throw away cameras that have yet to be developed! But thanks to a merry Christmas and a loving family we were given the gift of digitalness - a digital camera! Yay! So now we will be sharing our fun times with all our family and friends. Walter and Betty were nice to give us a cd filled with pictures and I will start our blog by sharing some of those, Thanks you all that pitched in, it was a wonderful gift!

SAUL

Welcome to the United States! Yes Saul is officially a Resident of the US of A. As of March 26th! Yay! He still enjoys his job at Cantwell Bros. Lumber. They are wonderful to him there. He goes and works out with his buddies from work every morning before work. The man has lost over fourty pounds!! Go Saul!! He is a busy dad as takes care of the kids when I'm off to work some evenings!! The kids are really close to him. He has become one with the kitchen and his new friend is the George Foreman grill where he woops up a mean grilled chicken, yum!!

ZURI

School is Cool! Zuri, me, has returned to work and school this fall. It's busy and crazy, but it's working out. Since May I have been working at a residencial treatment center for girls. It is fun and challenging - I like it. In August, I returned to USU and am applying for the Masters of Family and Human Development program in January. I started out with a different educational goal (2nd Bachelor's), so I took a sewing class this semester - I can now sew! I'll need some practice, however, because its never straight!! I am adjusting to leaving my babies, it's been hard. I certainly treasure every minute with them!! They are sooo much fun!

ELIAS

NO more pull-ups!! Elias has officially conquered the potty!! We are super proud of him and we have a celebration after each and every time. Elias is going to school now a couple of times a week. He goes to a preschool that helps him with his speech. He has improved so much!! We love his teacher. If I was to pick one thing that Elias is really into - I couldn't. He loves all the characters on t.v. He likes books and love to play cars. Elias loves his baby sister Faith, he will even share his things and treats with her, sometimes. Elias is already a good rolemodel for Faith. He has great manners, he does well saying please, thank you, and I'm sorry!

FAITH

Little Faith, she is a doll. Her hair is growing longer and longer curls, especially the spot that Elias cut off! She is a spicy one, though. Don't get on her bad side, she'll let you know all about it!! Elias knows first hand - on the side of his eye is a scar to prove it! She'll even get mad at me and not want anything to do with me! She is also sweet. She loves to sing Twinkle Little Star and is learning the ABCs and 123s with Elias. Faith loves being a mommy to her babies. She pretends to cook for them and change their diapers. She is still under 20 pounds! Yes she is 21 months old. She is starting to gain weight little by little.
