Drew continues to make us proud in everything he does. He is smart like his mom (hey, its my blog so I get to say what I want), has developed a sense of humor like his dad and uncles (this is good and bad), is very patient with his siblings (definitely did not get patience from me) and most important, he is kind. He is just a nice kid and I couldn't be more proud of anything about him than that. And I almost forgot - the kid loves sports! I love watching him play - baseball, football and basketball are the sports he plays competitively, but after snowboarding in our backyard this winter, we may have a Red Gerard or Shaun White on our hands!

Happy Birthday, Drew!!
Drew turned 11 in January. I say this every year and I'll say it again, it seems like just yesterday I was holding my little baby Drew in my arms! The days can be long, but the years are so short!

Christmas 2017
We hosted my parents and Matt and Janelle for Christmas this year. Our house was full with 6 adults, 3 kids, and 4 dogs! Other than my parents getting the flu, we had a great time!
After everyone left our house, we loaded up the van and headed to Omaha to see Andy's side of the family. Omaha was fun as always and we enjoyed bringing Sanders to his new home with Mitch and Kate. I have always considered myself to not really be a dog person (or into any animals really), but I grew pretty attached to Sanders when he was here so it was kind of hard to leave him. The kids had fun playing with their cousins and especially enjoyed karaoke night!

Fitz
Meet the newest member of our family, Fitz!
Fitz is an F1B Goldendoodle, which means one of his parents is a Goldendoodle and one is a Poodle so he is 75% poodle. Fitz's brother, Sanders, went to Andy's brother Mitch so we got to have both puppies for 10 days before Christmas. The kids were in heaven. Sox was not as impressed, but she tolerated the puppies well!
