{Welcome To Bergen-Topia...}

{I figured I should post an actual update as to whats going on with us lately.}
********************
Ryan: is working away, he is taking Microbiology which is twice a week. He also applied for, and was accepted to the Banner Hospital Volunteer Program, which is a huge step in the door for him. There were 500 other applicants and he was one they chose, so Monday afternoons that's where he will be providing his services. Ryan also decided, today, that even though it looks like a pretty sure thing for nursing school in Coolidge, he will also apply to EAC, in Thatcher AZ. Between the two, it looks promising he will start in January. He starts Psych 101 on Mon through Rio Salado. He is also considering becoming a licensed interpreter (Spanish), he thinks that will give his resume a big boost, and is looking to classes to do so.
**************************
Lynette: is getting bigger by the day! And excited to be doing this baby thing again. I am trying to de-clutter our lives, in every sense. I also am working on catching up on my scrap-booking. I am currently reading "The 5000 Year Leap" and "Simplify." I will be starting "The Shining" next month! Between the kids, the house work, and my little hobbies, the days are flying by! Ryan and I still serve in the Primary, and will until the little lady makes her appearance next month.
***************************
Alenna: is just as talkative as ever. She has a larger than life personality and keeps us on our toes! She, daily, is saying new things and astounding us by concepts she is putting together. Alenna loves princesses, and really that is a huge understatement. She loves getting her nails and hair done. (Good thing I went to beauty school!) Her most recent thing is wanting to speak Spanish like daddy. She hears daddy talk to various people everyday in Spanish and is perplexed by it, today she said to me, "Mommy, I speak Spanish. Watch...HOLA! SEE! I speak Spanish!" Alenna is getting great at her shapes, letters and numbers. She is the perfect older sister and adores her little brother.
***************************
Brady: is just as adorable as ever. He has learned to go down stairs now, and we have to watch to make sure he doesn't face plant into the carpet. He gives kisses now, and waves (and says) "Goodbye." He also calls us "momma" or "dadda" when he wants one or the other parent. Brady is so strong, it seriously surprises me how strong that little guy is! He is so happy, and constantly is laughing. Brady will run along furniture, he will stand, and even has taken a couple steps. We expect him to be sprinting any day now. He has 10 teeth, and luckily hasn't had any new ones come up in a while, (he gets like 3 or 4 at a time!) He is so cuddly, the most cuddly baby I have ever meet. We love it!
****************************
Baby Girl: we have a couple names on our list, still haven't agreed on the 'right' one yet. She is constantly moving, flipping to and fro. Its so fun to play with her, she'll kick, I'll poke back and on and on. Lots of Braxton Hicks, getting ready for action time. Its been great to be able to do this again, I'll be sad when it's over.
