An update finally!

For those of you who are still trying to follow my silly blog that never gets updated, here's an update finally. I got discouraged because I would write my updates and then go to add photos and I would lose the whole thing! SO frustrating! That is why there haven't been any photos the last couple of times that I've written.
I will add photos later today, but I wanted to get out there all the crazy things that have been going on in our life down here in GA!
Ryan started school in August. He is doing really well in Pre-K and loves his teachers and is learning SO much! He is still really into Star Wars but has added a new found love and skill with Guitar Hero! :) He is actually pretty good! He of course loves to "rock out" and is begging us to let him take up learning to play the electric guitar. He turns 5 on the 28th of this month. I swear sometimes I think he's turning 15! :)
Liam has been having a ball being home with Ronin and me during the day. We play lots of play-doh and I doubt in my lifetime I'll ever forget what happens when you "Give a Pig a Pancake" since we MUST read that book at least 5 times a day! He is getting big and talks and talks and talks...you get the idea.
Ronin is 11 months already! I can't believe he's going to be 1! Time flies by way too fast! He is getting ready to walk. He stands and barely holds on and then he will let go and stand for a few seconds. It will be no time at all before I'm going to be chasing him around the house!
Sean's job is going well. There's not a whole lot to say about that. He has been moved up to the Systems Analyst group. I'm really proud of him and all the work he's been doing on some pretty difficult projects.
I have started school. I'm finally going to finish my degree so that I can teach! I'm pretty excited, although I'm a bit nervous as well. As if my life wasn't busy enough...I thought I'd add one more thing! :) It's all pretty exciting and I will be hopefully a licensed teacher in just a couple of years! YAY!

Together at last!

About 3 weeks ago the packers came and the movers showed up to move us to Atlanta finally. We are so happy to be together again. The boys love it. Ryan has a friend who lives right next door. He loves to ride his bike with him and play in the yard and on the sidewalks! We're so happy to have moved into a neighborhood with sidewalks! It makes playing outside so much nicer! AND...as an added bonus, I get my exercise everyday since our neighborhood is a circle so Ryan gets to ride his bike and I walk with the other boys. It really is a good time.

Well, the entire month of February went by and there's not a post to be seen. I really am trying to keep everyone updated, but man how time can slip away from you and the next thing you know an entire month has passed! For those of you keeping tabs, we have not moved yet (I'm sure that's a HUGE surprise especially if you've been in regular contact with me) :) We should be moving in the next few weeks. I've been busy cleaning out closets. I'm sure the trash guys really LOVE me! Well, let me post some pictures of the boys. They are getting so big. I really love these little guys!

Have you seen Ryan on his new bike??

Had he stopped riding the picture might have been clear, but there he is! Safety always comes first with Ryan and he made SURE he had his helmet on...good for him! ;)

Liam likes to cheese for the camera

Very rarely will Liam stay put long enough to actually get a picture of his face. Ryan took this picture. He did a really good job I think! We have such handsome boys (not to toot my own horn...but toot, toot!! :)heehee

Ronin is smiling!

This past weekend Ronin started smiling! He's such a happy boy! Don't you just want to pinch those cheeks???!!

The Proudest Ryan

Ryan has been working hard on writing his numbers. He is showing off his numbers minus 2,3 and 5 since he says he's not that good with those yet. :)

Thank you Aunt Daleen and Uncle Dan!

Here's Ronin in the outfit my brother and his wife sent him. It's 3-6 months so I didn't think he'd be wearing it for a while, but my little milk dud is getting big!

Look! It's snowing!

The boys were so excited that it finally started to really snow here this morning. They couldn't wait to get out there and feel the snow.

Ronin's best friend!

Ronin's best friend is Brycen Kelley! He was born on December 28th and Ronin was born on December 5th. They'll be best of buddies!

Aunt Dawn comes to visit!

Last weekend Ronin got to meet Dawn, Jackson and Jacob for the first time!

Look at Liam's trick!

Liam has just gotten the hang of going down the stairs VERY fast. This video really doesn't do it justice, but he sure is proud!

A small look back on 2007

Here are a few pictures from 2007...






Ryan and Liam playing after their bath in the toybox in February.





In March Liam played with his 3 favorite girls Kasi, Brooke and Kimberly.




















This year Ryan had his very first dental appointment with Dr. Butterworth and Miss Melissa!












We went to D.C. this summer to see the sites!













And in December, we were complete with three little boys to love! Ryan and Liam love their new baby brother Ronin!

New Years Resolutions

So this year I'm going to actually keep my resolutions. I resolve this year among lots of things, to post to this blog to document our year one day at a time!!

2007 was an eventful year for us. In March Sean got a new job right here in Fredericksburg. No more commuting!! (Or so we thought). In November Sean was transferred with this new job down to Atlanta! I am up here trying desperately to sell the house so that we can all be together in our new town of Villa Rica, Ga! We have a contract on a beautiful house in a lovely golf community and we're hoping that everything works out so that house can be ours! In December we welcomed the newest addition to the Trantham family. Little Ronin Michael Trantham joined us on Dec. 5th. He was 9 pounds even and 19 and a half inches long. He was born at 9:00p.m. He shares his birthday with his cousin Kailey!

2008 will bring lots of blessings I am sure! I'm excited to share with all my friends and family all the goings on of the Trantham family on our adventurous journey!
