I cannot believe it has almost been a whole year since my last post (shame on me)! So much has happened since last June. I started working part time as a preschool teacher. I teach at the same school the girl attend! They love it I love it and it is a wonderful fit! 

The girls are growing like crazy! Stasi is now 4 and is so smart, She is loving school and all the new friends she has. She took her very 1st dance class this year, ending with a recital and she stole the show!!  She will start VPK in the fall. I cannot believe she is 4… Where did time go? 

Savannah is 2 now and she is just full of gunpowder and glitter. She is defintely a fireball and so very girly. She is getting so tall and her vocabulary is amazing! She becomes more and more independent as time goes by! 

I hope all is well with everyone else and I hope I canstart posting more and more so we can keep up with everyone!

Love,

The Ruips

Dan has lots of family in Ohio. One of his cousins Kelly, she and Dan look like they could be brother and sister. Keeping with that tradtion the youngest daughters from each family look to me like they could almost be twins! I think that is so amazing! Here is a picture of Miss Ella and one of Miss Savannah. (Kelly I hope you dont mind that I used Miss Ella’s picture!)

Stasi turned 3 on May 1. She has become so grown up. completely potty trained for a little over 5 months now!! Thank you Jesus! She is very independent. So in love with her daddy! A little on the bossy side but what 3 year old girl isnt. She is so social and loves playing with other kids!! Here are some pictures from her birthday pool party!

Savannah turned one year old on Feb 5. I cannot believe how fast that year went. She is such a blessing. It is amazing how different both physically and emotionally she is from her sister. She has her own way of doing things and dont you dare try and change it. I think she will be our wild child. Here are some pictures from her 1st birthday!

This Halloween was a blast. All of the kids in our family came to Mom’s (she lives in a gated community) SO we all eat some pizza and other yummies and headed out to trick or treat! Stasi did great, she got way too much candy but she went to every house walking all by herself! It was so much fun! Here are some pics!

The church that I have gone to since I was 13 puts on a huge trunk or treat every year! This was the first year we were able to make it! It was totally packed but so much fun, Stasi decided she was doing to be Dora the Explorer this year, and Savi was a pumpkin! It also worked out that Daddy could come with us, along with my sister and her family! Here are some pictures from our evening!
