Told you it would be awhile...

...and this is why I don't blog, because it takes me 6 months to update it!  So much going on, where to start?!?!  Guess we can go person by person...

Jackson is doing very well!  He has started going to school a few days a week for pre-k, and loves it!  He especially likes riding the bus.  He continues to work on his speech, and new words are springing up often, usually to our surprise.  He loves our redesigned lake area, as well as the new swing set that Dana got him.  He climbs the rock wall on his own, and remains fearless!  Most of his interests right now lean towards anything "Toy Story" related.  Toys, books, movies...he cannot get enough!  Health-wise, Jack has been in pretty good shape this year, no complaints!!

Tyler has been busy getting ready for his Senior year of high school, finishing out his Junior campaign with Straight "A's".  This summer has taken him to Illinois Boys State, where he was introduced to the ridiculous inner workings of the government.  He also took a whirlwind tour of Colleges, and continues to look for the right fit.  Recently, he auditioned for American Idol, he didn't get the "golden ticket", but we were proud that he tried, and he did great nonetheless!  Band camp starts soon, and Tyler's days of freedom will soon be replaced with marching and sweating.

Dana left Children's Hospital after 15 years for a new adventure as Director of the Cardiology Lab at Biomedical Systems in St. Louis.  So far, she loves it!  The people have been fantastic, and it has been challenging and exciting!  At home, when she isn't chasing our kids around, Dana expertly tends the gardens at our house...we have the best looking roses in the neighborhood by far!  She somehow manages to become more beautiful every day, pretty lucky guy here!

As far as my update...I'm pretty boring.  I spend the majority of my free time either going to Tyler's events, or chasing Jack around the house.  I'm loving Dana's new job as well, because it means she is home a lot earlier!

No clue when I'll update this again...could be sooner, most likely later...let's be honest, I'll forget!
