The Nieter Side of Life: Busy...busy

Sorry for the delay in a new blog post. I tell you life gets busy so quickly and next thing you know the weeks have past. We have had a good February overall. Brent, Alli and I have been fighting colds and sinus issues off and on. Blake is the healthiest one of the bunch right now. Things are plugging along here. Blake is loving preschool. He is doing great with writing his name. He addressed all his valentines to his 12 classmates. It took us all week but we got it done with very few tears from Blake or mommy :-) Alli is up to her normal tricks of running through life while literally bouncing off the walls. Her spunk cracks us up on a daily basis. She has started posing now for pictures which usually entails her hands on her hips :-) It is so funny! Brent and I laugh about how much our kids are like us in certain ways and how much they differ. Blake is definitely like me. First he looks more like me but in personality he needs to know the plan, be prepared for what's coming, doesn't like changes and wakes up very slowly in the morning. Both of us usually don't say a word until we have been awake for at least 15 min. Then there is Alli who has her own personality showing off, making faces etc but looks like Brent and wakes up 100% ready to go just like her daddy. She comes out in the morning almost dancing she is so awake. I am so thankful for both of these precious kiddos who are so different but bring so much joy and uniqueness to this house. Life would be boring without them!
