Thoughts on the new year....

It is really hard to believe that we are already in 2011 and it is already February for that matter!! Crazy how fast time has flown by. January was a rough month for us. We have been battling viruses left and right. Last week Rylee had the flu and/or a bacterial infection and she was running high fevers from Tuesday-Saturday. Thankfully Saturday was the turning point for her. Operation disinfect the Moyer house was in high gear last week. I was trying hard to sanitize the house so that Presley and Easton would catch the virus. Presley did catch a small bug but it only lasted a few days. I can honestly say that we are finally on the mend and I am hoping the February brings us good health!!
Presley is thriving in preschool!! I have felt so blessed to be at Apex United Methodist Preschool. Presley teacher this year is nothing short of phenomenal!! Mrs Pamela is truly a wonderful gift from God and has made such an imprint on Presley's life. I am so thankful for her and Miss Aimee. I may actually cry when we have to start Presley in the 4 year old class with a new set of teachers. Let me tell ya....Pamela has set the bar high!! Presley is starting to right her name! I am so proud of her. She has been working so hard on it. One thing about Presley is that she has a hard time practicing things...she is someone who waits until she can do it right the first time....hence why she still hasn't ridden a bike. She has tried that once or twice and realizes it is a little hard and stops. This is how she was with crawling and walking. She never walk and stumbled....when she walked she walked and did it without tripping. Wes and I are teaching her that practice is a good thing and that it will make things easier and/or better. She is such a pleaser by nature that I think it bothers her when she doesn't get something right the first time. Presley nature is so endearing. She is the modern day Snow White/Cinderella wrapped in one. lol. We are so blessed to see her grow. She tells me repeatedly that she is going to be a teacher when she grows up and I can totally see that!
Rylee is changing daily! It is hard to believe in just about a month she will be 2!! She is our spunky monkey! There are some signature phrases that Rylee says ALL the time! They are:
* "mines"
* "I do it"
* "mess"
* "hold u"
* "wait...I comin"
Of course she is talking more in sentences...however those are just a few signature "Rylee Phrases" that make Wes and I laugh. She says all of these phrases with so much passion and emphasis. It is too cute. In about a week I will be registering her for her first year of preschool!! I am so excited for her. Presley and Rylee will be at school together...how sweet!!
Easton is my little charmer...no doubt about it. He is a mommy's boy through and through. YAY!! He is growing daily. He will be 4 months on the 7th of February which is hard to believe. He is currently working on rolling from his back to his belly. He gets halfway there and then figures that is good enough and hangs out in that position for awhile it is quite funny. He is such a laid back little boy! He loves playing with his toys...he is really getting into grabbing his toys and not letting go! Easton is quite the conversationalist. I believe he is my most talkative baby. Always cueing and smiling at us. He just has so much to say at such a young age. He also LOVES watching tv...a Presley in the making. ;) I can't wait to see him as he changes in the next few months!! He is such a handsome boy.
Well we are making our way into February!! Hopefully we will all be healthy and gearing up for Spring! Wes and I are looking forward to laying out some plans to hopefully start the house hunting here in the Fall with hopes of moving next Spring or sooner. Our goal is to move before Miss Presley hits kindergarten. However, we are relying on the Lords plan and timing on this and his timing may not necessarily be ours. Maybe he wants this for us sooner. ;)
Well....this is my blog to kick off 2011. Here's hoping I can blog weekly...maybe even daily!!
