Yearly post :)

Hello!!!  It has been waaayyyy too long since I have gotten on here and have sooooo much catching up to do.  Probably won't happen today, but here are a few things that we have been up to!

• school, lots and lots of school.  Justin is taking his full load as usual, then comes home for me to go to school.  It has been really crazy, but I am glad I am getting classes out of the way.  Justin is almost done, only has about two semesters left.  I never thought this day would come!  Well, we are by no means done with school, but at least the first part:)  We finally figured out what it is we want to "be when we grow up" and decided on dental school.  He applied a few months ago and now are just waiting to hear back from different schools.  So anxious and excited for this new chapter in our lives.  
• Elle started 2nd grade and is growing up way too fast.  My little girl isn't so little anymore and getting so mature!  She already has boys calling her, and she is only 7!  We are in big trouble.  She has been playing soccer, doing gymnastics and staying busy with her little brothers.
• Talan started kindergarten!  I cannot believe that I have 2 kids in elementary school now, it makes me feel old!  He LOVES it so much and feels like such a big kid.  He has been waiting for the day to be able to go to school with his big sis, and gets so excited to go to school everyday.  Love that kid:)  He is learning to read and doing so good at it.  I am such a proud mama!
• Hudson has grown in to his own little personality.  He is 20 months old and quite the little stubborn, persistant, sassy boy.  I couldn't ask for a more perfect baby.  It's crazy to me how much he has grown up in the last few months.  He runs everywhere, is starting to talk and loves to play with his bro and sis.  He really thinks he is as big as them and when he can't do everything they do, he gets mad!  He is such a mommie's boy and I love it(most the time.)  I couldn't imagine our lives without his fun little personality and blonde curls bouncing around the house constantly!
• Oh....and we are having another boy!!!  I am due in about 7 weeks (if I go full term).  This pregnancy has gone by so fast, I feel like i was just yesterday I got pregnant!  We are so excited to be having another one, even though 4 seems like SO many kids.  I am excited to meet him and to see the little man he will grow up to be.  All of our kids have been so different and it really is so fun to see what each little individual grows into!

Here's a couple recent family pics...( and don't worry I was 30 weeks pregnant there, not just fat, ha!)  I haven't taken any pregnancy pictures yet this time around, so this is what you get!  

So it's been crazy but good over here, and hopefully won't be another year before I'm back on!
