We made it

Well we figured out our schedule and are having our first week of success. No kids missed or were left at perspective schools. Shane made it to every meeting and class on his schedule and I found projects to keep me busy other than farmville.

We had a couple really nice days of weather so I was able to walk with kids to and from school and when I wasn't picking kids up I would walk with Dakota and Seth. THe weather is trying to turn to rain, we've had some rain Friday and then again on Sunday. We had a dozen of Shanes classmates from Seminary over Friday night for games and socializing. We are blessed with some very nice friends down here. We also at the first of the year started going to First Presbitarian Church of Portland. You'll have to check out the website for pictures of the church. Besides being beautifully designed they have a wonderful Preaching staff. We are trying to on request from Wells Fargo re-list our house in Lake Stevens for sale at least for a while.

We all have sinus colds thanks to Kelli I love it when they share. Oh well, like we haven't had are share and will continue to do so. Seth really is trying to walk he took two independent steps Thursday night and during the next few days. Dakota turns three next Sat. we are having some neighbors over with kids her age for informal party. All those in Washington whom read this are welcome if the want to journey down here. Not nessasary though.

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.
