January is always an interesting month because it’s right after Christmas.
Missy finished getting her shots up to date.
Our little man is becoming a big man as he turned 11 this month. [Birthday Pictures] Alot of people weren’t able to attend, so it was the just us. It didn’t matter though because he still enjoyed himself.
This week went by quick. The kids spent it playing with their new toys and breaking in their new clothes.
For New Year’s Eve we played pool until midnight then took all the kids outside for champagne bottle poppers and the poppers you throw. Then back inside for some new year cake.
Happy 2010 everyone!
December 21 – 27

The older two kids are now on their Christmas break from school. They are enjoying it alot. Spending days watching tv and playing with their toys.
We had our Richard Xmas Wednesday with our nephew Zach and it was a great success. All the kids seemed to like their presents. We lined them up at the pool table and let them race open the presents, lol.
Our Christmas went great too. Naturally James wanted to open presents at 4am! But I convinced him to wait for his sister to wake up so she wouldn’t be grouchy. Even the animals got presents.
December 14 – 20
Dec 20
This week started off with Missy going to the vet for her shots and she weighs a huge 2 lbs. Cosmo got weighed and he’s grown to 10 lbs! He’s a big fat kitty kat.
James is struggling a little bit with his schoolwork. He’s keeping his average good, but individual tests are giving him some trouble, like history and math. He’s been doing good and hasn’t gotten any more notes.
Aimee is having a blast in school and she’s not getting the rash from the wood chips on the playground anymore. They made a family tree with pictures, she was so proud of hers.
Nichelle made 2 month old. She’s fighting a bit with cradle cap so the dr gave us some medicated shampoo to use. She’s starting to be more alert and smile.
Stephanie’s been having major tooth pain again even though she finished her antibiotics for the abscess tooth. She goes to the dentist next week.
Jim has been working hard on getting the shop in order. We’re so proud of him.
December 7 – 13
Dec 13
This week has been a busy one for us. We’ve got the shop up and running and getting use to a work schedule again. The weather has been changing and getting all of us sick. James can’t wait for break. Stephanie got her Christmas gift early. She’s a 3 month old CKC Chihuahua that she named Missy.
The kids love her. She’s soo tiny, almost 2 lbs.
November 30 – December 6
Dec 7
The kids went back to school this week. Yeah!! This was also the week the Shop officially opened up. Computer Repair, LLC is now open for business.
James got into trouble again at school for “physically assaulting” another student. He’s working on his second week of no medicine and it’s hard to say what the outcome will be.
Aimee is having a blast in school because this month they are learning about musical instruments.
Nichelle had her check-up and she’s 9 lbs 10 ozs and healthy. yeah!
Jim is finally over his cold, but Stephanie is fighting with extreme tooth pain and an abscess tooth. The dr gave her antibiotics but they are the strongest you can get and they are making her sick, so she has to take more meds to counter the side effects of the antibiotics. *sigh*
