Holidaze

Time has surely flown since the last post. Shane & I made it through finals month, our anniversary that we celebrated with trip to Powells books and Olive Garden. We even made it down to Idaho to celebrate Christmas with my parents, cousin Tad his daughter Dalli, and Aunt Wilda. It was quite a fun time of relaxed play, sleeping in, shopping, and simply spending time with my folks. We came home with hitting snow the 20 miles of the trip all the way into Portland which made it and hour getting from outside of Portland before Multnomah falls to our house. It had started snowing that afternoon around three and had finally stopped about 10 p.m. The next day including today it has rained. Snow completely gone by before noon on Wednesday.




We have had a quiet New Year, Shane & I have been reading our books we purchased at Powells and I've been doing my Psychology homework. The kids have been enjoying all the presents they received at Christmas time from all their Aunts, Uncles, Cousins and Grandparents. Thankyou to all who made a memorable Christmas for us.

Now we enter another year of uncertainty. Our live have defiantly been a change since leaving Seattle to pursue going back to school full time. Leaving family, a church, and numerous friends. The Lord has tested us and blessed us. We continually pray we are on the path he wants us to be on. May he continue to bless you and guide and protect you and yours throughout 2010.

Whew! Break for update

Long awaited update, we have made it through 7 weeks of school both for the kids and ourselves. It's been a productive semester, God has been guiding our steps and we're continually thankful for that! He has also been growing us and peeling off bandages of hurts I haven't dealt with. Through it all He remains faithful and I am most grateful for that. We've had a slew of birthdays roll through our house these past months. Dakota had hers on the 30th of January! She got some really pretty outfits from Grammie & Grandpa Aunt Nelma,Uncle Paul, and Cousin Steve. She also got a coloring book and sunglasses, another little doll, crown from cousins and neighbor kids, sorry if I forgot anything. We had a little party for her with homemade pizza! My little girl is now 5 years old, scary when she was once so little. My little boy Seth turned 3, February 15th. We had a family party on the day of his birthday. He got some great outfits, and cool cars from Grammie ...

West bound....

            Well another month has passed and we are getting ready to move into March.  It is always hard to write when life is so crazy, however, it is important to let people know what is going on in the Lambing household which is split at the moment.  At the beginning of the year when Shane left for Seattle I thought the kids and I would be able to survive and continue to thrive here in Idaho.  However as the weeks passed and Shane was able to come home everyother weekend, it was becoming clear the kids were no longer thriving especially Daniel.  Daniel I've come to decide is the most emotional based kid I've dealt with.  He is very tender and reactionary to the environment he is in.  This being said, because I'm stressed at being an only parent 90% if the time & I wanted to make it work, Daniel is being stressed and it is becoming more apparent everyday he misses his dad like crazy and is not reacting well to being part...

Month in review

Image
As always it's remained busy for us this last month. We enjoyed a few days away from Portland at the end of March with Dawna, Kurt, and Girls; and Neva, Jason, Thomas, and Katherine. They are all getting so big, it was a treasure getting to spend time with all the nieces and nephew. Unfortunately, Kelli brought headlice home from school. Ugh! We are still battling this with the kids. I'm remaining vigilant. We had a great Easter with sunny weather, and school friends coming over for dinner. The kids dyed some Easter eggs Saturday afternoon which was fun to do. They all looked great in their new outfits. School is gearing towards the end of the semester so we are staying busy. It's been a good year thus far and we are looking forward to the journey of continuing.
