She is doing quite well in school. Of course she is having trouble writing her name, well at least getting the letters in the correct order :) She has recently discovered that if she helps mom and dad that the day tends to go smoother. She has been a BIG help with Austin, now that he is mobile. She loves him so very much, it's quite sweet. Speaking of Austin, he is now almost 10 months old. He started crawling the day before Thanksgiving. The lil booger decided he wanted his sisters poptart that was on a paper plate on the floor clear across the living room. You see, we were running late for school and I forgot all about her breakfast being on the floor, I sat him down by his music table and was doing laundry, when I came back in, he was eating the poptart! He has 8 teeth now and is completely not interested in baby food. He is a growing boy and wants the good stuff.
As for Chris and I, we are doing great! We are managing to keep afloat these days. He is still laid off, 7 months now! Hopefully something comes along soon! I am doing great as well! As of yesterday I have lost a total of 62 lbs since the day I had Austin. 50 of which were gained while pregnant. Christmas was great! Elizabeth loved her 4 wheeler after she got use to the idea of it. The night before she wrote santa a letter telling him she didn't want a 4 wheeler anymore, so her first reaction was not a good one. Austin of course loved all the paper! Life is good for the moment.
