Our present life

We are currently living in Manteca, California away from the cold winters of Chicago. We moved to California almost 4 years ago and started this blog in an attempt to keep in touch with our family and friends in Chicago or elsewhere. We miss everyone from the midwest but we love those who have become part of our life in California. Kevin is a teacher at Ripon Christian High. He also coaches girls volleyball and soccer and stays busy playing the sports he loves as well. Janey is a nurse 2 days a week and a mom the rest. She works at DMC on the pediatrics floor. Mason (5) and Talen (2) are growing daily and loving life! Enjoy our blog and follow us if you like!

Talen..no, no!

These words are heard very frequently at our house these days. Talen is 1 and loving it! He is my very busy boy. Climbing, exploring, making messes, and running faster (away from mommy:) every day! He definitely keeps me busy. Most nights, after the boys are in bed, I wonder - why am i so exhausted?! And the answer is that little peanut. He is starting to understand more everyday, though not getting many words out yet. I know he is just itching to get them out. Some of his favorite activities include, moving around furniture so he can climb, swinging a baseball bat (look-out big brother!), and reading books. He's saying a few words - momma, dadda, ball, papa. We can't wait to see what new tricks you will learn next, Talen.

Other than the tuft of blonde hair sticking out from the hat, that first picture totally looked like a younger version of Mason. Never really seen much similarity between the two of them before. :-)

Can't wait to see and hear--in person--all of these new things! A lot has changed since June.... :-)
