Fast forward to 2012....

It has been such a long time since I checked in with this blog. The addition of Facebook in our lives stole my attention. I'm hoping that this time around I'll keep it up. So much fun it was to retread old posts!

So much has happened in 3 years since I've posted. More on all that later but for now.... I'll catch you up on the family.




Davis clan 2012
Davis clan. 2012. On our way to Daytona Beach for the first leg of a road trip that took us up to northern Georgia. The front of our house is still behind the truck.



First.... Olivia. She is 12 now. She's bigger than me in every way. Heading into 7th grade she was bumped up to all advanced classes for this upcoming year. Good kid... Typical pre-teen eye rolling that comes with a get-with-times-Mom look. (drives me crazy when she does that) I'll give her props for being fantastic with helping out with the younger ones.



Meredith is 10. Despite the daily struggles with school, she pulled off all B's on her last report card -a feat I thought I'd never see. Her braces went on at the beginning of summer because the gap between her front teeth wasn't closing on its own (but it has closed in less than 10 weeks with a little help). She is my resident blonde and the embodiment of very blonde joke I can think of... Which makes her amazingly fun to live with.



Our only son, Wade is getting ready to turn 7. His never-ending curiosity makes him quite the talker (wonder who he gets THAT from?). In spite of being surrounded by females, he is ALL boy. His love of wrestling, boxing, and pretty much any sport is hard for me to follow but I guess boys will be boys)



Lastly, here's Paige. She is the tiniest one... Still wears a 2-3t in clothes even though she is 4 years old. As much as Wade is all boy, Paige is all girly-girl. That butterfly blanket is always wrapped around her for sleep. She is developing an attitude sooner than the older ones, but I'd wager that is because she sees all of them.




The 6 of us on vacation this summer.
I'm hoping that everyone is safe and healthy. Our clan is good.
