It's been a while

It has been a while since we have updated our blog and so now that we are in our new house finally and have the internet working I will update everyone.

Chaz - loves going to his new kindergarten class and has made many friends. He had to switch teachers on his first day of school and we didn't know how he would do with that, but he just rolled with the punches and had no problems with it. He has started playing soccer and I am his coach...fun, fun, fun. He is glad that he finally has his own room and doesn't have to share with Gavin anymore. He trully thinks he is a big kid.

Aedan - She is now going to 5 day a week preschool and loves it. They have been doing lots of activities lately around the cowboy theme...she is having a blast. She too is playing soccer and will have fun. She is back in her pink room and has been enjoying reconnecting with her things after being away from them for a month.

Gavin - He is 98% potty trained...2% = diaper at night only...he has been trying to talk us into not wearing one, but he loves to have water before bed, however, he hasn't mastered the art of getting up in the middle of the night and going potty. He has been a big helper around the house, but has also a big attitude. We just keep reminding ourselves that he will grow out of it. He is still making us laugh though with all his antics and demand for independance.

Codi - She is very busy making our new house a home and keeping up with the kids and preparing her Gospel Doctrine lessons. She is the new GD teacher in our ward, replacing the teacher who had done it for 13 years...yes that is 13 years.

Coby - I have been working long hours at work and loving every minute of it...not because I get out of house work or unpacking but because I truly love my job and enjoy all that I am learning from my new boss. At home though I am perfecting my plumbing and electrical skills, updates galore to be done. I am working with the Young Men at Church and I am also the Assistant Scoutmaster so Chaz and I will be going on campouts each month.

Life is good in the Long home and we are working hard here in Borger to make it our new home, but we still miss all of our friends in Katy.

Did you know that there is a pee your bed alarm? Oh yeah, you attach it to your kids underwear before bed and when it feels the least bit of pee it goes off and wakes up the whole neighborhood. My friend just told me about them. BUT you don't need one. After all Gavin is a whole whopping 98% potty trained. :o)
