Ok, OK...

Ok, Randal has been HOUNDING me about posting, so here we go :)

Schafers 4: 
We've had lots of family time lately and it's been so much fun!  I was able to travel to OKC for Kelli's first bridal shower (hooray!) last Saturday and then we stayed overnight in Argonia for her 2nd shower at the church there.  It was so great to see most of my dad's side of the family (have I mentioned I love my family?!).  Even Aunt Teri was there from NC since the shower dates coincided with her trip back home!  We missed everyone that wasn't able to make it, but it was still fun to hang out with everyone that came.

Head of household: 
Randal got a promotion - let me just say right here and now how proud I am of that man.  He has worked hard to get to the position that he's in and God is blessing him because of the choices that he has made.  He, of course, got lots of compliments from everyone on a job well done, so I hope he realizes how great he is :)

Snips and Snails, Sugar and Spice: 
Mason is a two year old boy.  He runs, he shouts, he jumps, he kicks, he talks back...you know, normal 2 year old stuff.  He's still as funny as ever, even when he's having a tantrum.  He loves our new van...he loves to push the button to close the door and has a blast exiting out the back when the seat is taken out.  He is still as protective as ever of his little sister and I love him even more for that!  Aunt Kelli went with me and the kids to see Elmo the other day at IBA and Mason had a blast. 

Madison couldn't have cared much less, but I think she had fun anyway (stuck her head in the popcorn bucket and got the to walk the halls...what's nut fun about that?). She is just as adorable as she was before, maybe even a little more so.  Her little personality comes out a little bit more every day.  She is still refusing to talk, even though we know she can.  She just talks quietly to her self or jibber-jabbers at us all day long.  She loves to play with her big brother, even though he is always trying to tackle her.   She is finally learning to fight back, so things could get interesting in the near future.  She loves to eat now taht she figured out that food can be good, so that keeps her busy most of the time ;)

Little Ol' Me:
I am busy.  Work is good, and the bakery business is picking up.  I have a large wedding order this weekend and have started piling up graduation and wedding orders for this spring/summer.  I am also busy planning Kelli's last shower right now, which is this weekend as well.  I'm so excited for her and can't wait for our trip to Mexico!  I haven't lost as much weight as I was hoping to at this point (have not been great about getting up early to work out), but am still eating much better and losing pounds and inches and have been able to avoid gaining everything back, which I'm super excited about.  The kids keep me entertained, but I have made it a point to start reading regularly again also, which I'm loving :) It gives me a good little escape from reality and the craziness of my own wonderful life.
