What we're up to...

It's been a while.  But I think I'm ready for another go-at this whole blog thing.  :)


So what have the Allred's been up to...


Steve is still running his own business doing property maintenance and small construction jobs.  He loves to work hard!  He is also continuing to go to school at UVU where he is aiming for a Bachelor's Degree in business.  We anticipate that he will be done in a year and a half. 


I am busy balancing being a mom and being a nurse.  I work full time on the night shift over the weekends at Stonehenge of Orem, which is an orthopedic rehab center.  Both of my roles are very fulfilling, yet very exhausting.  :)


Trevor is now 4 and is as wild and crazy as ever.  He is FINALLY potty trained.  It was a rough 11.5 months.  But we are accident free!  He is our little builder.  LOVES playing with ropes and string.  If he finds some laying around, it's quickly turned into a spider web or some sort of pulley contraption.  He's very much like his dad.


Porter just turned 2 and has embraced his Terrible 2's with a passion.  It's sad for me because he was my sweetheart and so anxious to help,  Now it's tantrums and screams and defiance.  (We will survive this, right?)  He spends most of his days just trying to keep up with older brother.


Madison, or Mads or Miss Madison, is now 1 and is an absolute delight in our home.  She's a big girl weighing 28+ pounds, just 10 ox shy of Porter.  She's wearing 2 T clothes and walks all around the place.  She's my best sleeper out of the bunch.  12 hours at night, and a 3-4 hour nap during the day.  I know... I'm spoiled.


I'll fill in the details as time goes on, but that's our family in a nutshell, for now.  :)
