What's new?

I feel like I should be blogging since it has been a while, but I don't really feel like there is a whole lot to talk about. Let's see...

We had my sisters kids staying with us all of last week while they celebrated their 10th anniversary in Hawaii. That was, um, well, eventful! Their kids are very well behaved and did well away from their parents, but having 5 kids for over a week was pretty crazy! From making lunches, to bathing 5, to taking them to and from school, getting back in time for naps, listening to my name said more than I have ever heard it before, etc. Juliana was a huge help though with my little girls! It was all worth it though for a couple of reasons. 1) They brought us back 100% Kona coffee (yum!) 2) They will be watching our girls in return when we go on a "kid-less" vacation in February (destination is still unknown) and 3) it was a good confirmation that we are content with 2 kids! :-)

Zoe has been in Obedience classes for a couple of weeks and has actually really started catching on! We work with her every day for 20 minutes or so at a time and she is doing well with the sit, stay, leave it, and the check commands. Also, Sam has taken her on a walk EVERY night for about 40 minutes for the last couple of weeks. Sam says he likes it for the exercise, but I think he secretly likes the bonding he does with Zoe!

I am going to attach some pictures real soon of all of my girls so stay tuned!
