Well, it seems like years since we've been on here so where do I begin? We left England on April 1st, 2010. Arrived in Spokane in May of 2010 and enjoyed a warm summer - not at all the heat we expected, but great times none the less. Our winter began in Nov with heavy snowfall and the purchase of a full size SUV! :)
Jailee is 4yrs old now, and in preschool 3 days a week; half days. She loves it and is meeting new friends all the time. She still misses her friends from England and talks about them all the time. Hopefully some day we will all be able to reunite. She's growing like a weed! Enjoyed soccer this fall and is now starting a dance and movement class that she's very excited about because she gets to wear tap shoes! tee hee, aaaahhhhh the little things that make them happy!
Jailsyn will be 2 soon, Feb 11th! She's so different from her sister, quiet with strangers and doesn't talk nearly as much as sister did at this age. However, she's has a personality and a will that beats none! She's no fear when it comes to climbing or pushing the limits with mom! She's as cute as a bug with those big blue eyes and will get away with murder with that smile! She's going to join a beginning gymnastics class soon which we're hoping will curb some of that energy! ha ha :)
Jemma is 9 now and getting a bit gray like the rest of us! ;) She's developed allergies since moving to Spokane and is on medication for that. Since it's mostly outside allergies the snow has been somewhat beneficial for her - hiding all the icky grasses! She's on a special diet now as well, but doesn't seem to mind much at all. Not as frisky as she once was she's still ready to play for a while, but does enjoy her naps! (like mommy)
Jackie is staying home with the girls, at least until #2 (Jaislyn) goes to school. It's a very busy job and somewhat draining some days but I wouldn't change a thing. My babies are gifts from heaven and I can't imaging life without them.
Jim is still in the USAF as a MSgt and chugging away! 3 more yrs and he'll most likely retire and then we'll move west. He's liking his job okay, just not many folks around at this time. He'll most likely have this position for another year or so and then possibly move on to something else.
Well, for now that's the update. I'll try to get some pics on here more often. Not as exciting a world these days now that we're not world travelers, but maybe something interesting will come up!
