Been awhile

Had to work some kinks out of our computer apparently so we finally got it back....yeah!! Anyway things have just been moving ahead around here. Holidays were VERY hectic but of course the kids had a blast. In January we celebrated 2 birthdays. Adam turned 31 and Lucien was the big 1! You can see that everyone had a great time. He is so big and walking/running everywhere. You really can't hold him down for long. He has 3 teeth total and working on the fourth as we speak. Jenna is her usual 9 going on 13. She is obsessed with cheer leading and it has a positive impact in that she has to have certain grades to be on the team. Not that that has ever been a real problem but I think it has prompted her to look at math in a different way ;) Isabelle is getting to be a real lady. It's funny how you don't really think of the time going by and then you will see something that reminds you. This morning she put on some pants that I remember it seemed not so long ago she couldn't wear because they were just too big. Now they look like Capri's! She enjoys learning the cheers right along with her big sister.

Another piece of exciting news is that I will be traveling to Micronesia specifically Saipan in April for 10 days. It is for work and I will be doing a natural history study of the White-throated ground dove. This is a bird that I have been working with for about 3 years now. I am very nervous but very happy to have this unique opportunity. I just applied for my passport and am in the process of gathering up the supplies I will need to go on a trip like this. Will definitely have much to report and pictures to share after that trip.
