New year new goals

Haven't blogged in a while a lot has changed! Sept we found out we are expecting baby number 3! Final one :) and it's a boy! Yay! Joseph Harlan Rodewald will be gracing us with his presence first week of may :) the girls and I went to visit with some awesome family at Disney world end of oct and early nov! The girls had so much fun Jennika really loved meeting the princesses and characters :) Jennika has been going to preschool since sept and she loves it! We continue to do dance class and looking to get Ruth into a dance class or something soon.

We found out early dec that John will be deploying again sometime in Feb. which was a shock to us since a few days before he was for sure not going. But nothing is ever for sure with the army! So his deployment will be 9m as far as we know and he will come home to meet his son when Joseph is 6-7m old. :(

We spent a week before Christmas cleaning and organizing every since inch of our house (which isn't a lot)! Trying to get everything organized before deployment well before the new year so we can spend as much time as a family as possible. Still have a few things to do but that's only because I don't like the set up in the girls' room and I'm picky. So today I worked on the girls' dress up stuff!

We don't have much storage in this house but since we cleaned organized and got rid of a bunch if extra stuff we were using out under the stairs storage for baby toys and baby things. Well we have a bedroom for that and the bedroom won't be used until next year so I changed it to a dressing room for the girls! Which cleaned up their room a lot! So I will be in there tonight to organize again and hope I can get it to something I like!

So now I have this brand new bookcase I originally bought to make a dress up closet thingy and I don't know what I'm going to do with it yet....but I have an idea so we will see.


I will be blogging more since I am trying to cut my time spent on Facebook, but still want to include family on what we are doing and how the girls are doing. Plus when John leaves I want him to be able to see everything we do like he is home :)

Happy new year!
