Hello all. I have finally got my own blog to keep everyone posted on the family and the kids. Things in the Vasquez Household have been full force. The kids are back at school. The attend Bennett Venture Academy, its a charter school in the area. I keep praying on it that one day Ill be able to take them out of school and homeschool them. Dominic has this extreme deep desire to be homeschooled. For some reason he just doesn't like school.
The kids are still overly consumed with sports. They love anything that consists of a ball. Toys, what are these, my boys know nothing of them. They just love to be outside running and playing all day if they can. Dominic is still playing ball with the Bedford Bombers. Over the summer the took 3rd in the state tournament and attended the Little League World Series for the 9U group in Indiana. It was quite an experience for him. Something that he will never forget. Isaac also played ball over the summer but that is over now. He did really well and grew in his skills. Both the boths are going to try wrestling in October. Dominic is looking forward to it, Isaac a little eerie. I think they will both do fine. Isaac just doesn't like hard work.
Both the boys are growing and growing fast. Isaac is my short little stocky man, Dominic is my tall, skinny man. They are two completely personalities. Isaac is so sarcastic and just thinks that everything is a joke and nothing in the world can get to him. Dominic on the other hand is very emotional and gets his feelings hurt very easy. Isaac is now in the second grade and Dominic in the fourth. Its just crazy how fast they grow up.
Next the newest addition, Mathias James. The love of my life. He is just the coolest baby ever. He has a smile that can light up any room. You can never be in a bad mood with this little guy around. He is now 9 mos. Crawling, pulling up on furniture, and consistently climbing up the stairs. He keeps us very busy. You can't take your eye off him for a minute.
Pedro is finishing up school, hopefully only the rest of fall semester and spring semester to go. Then he will have a degree in Biomedical Electronic. He is stil working at Rexam, a factory in Whitehouse. He has been laid of since May, he took it voluntarily to help him finish school up a little faster. I myself work as a RN at St. Charles Hospital. I work in the Mental Health and Behavioral Services. I love my job, but it does get mentally and emotionally exhausting at times. We hope to be able to move out of Toledo within a few years. We just pray and ask the Lord to lead us in the direction that He wants us to go. We take life day by day and try not to take anything for granted. Well, thats it for now. I will try and post as things come about to keep everyone posted on the the Vasquez Family. All our love.
