<br />
1) to keep family and friends who live far away updated on the lives of our kids<br />
2) to serve as a family journal/scrapbook which I turn into a photo book each year<br />
<br />
In the past few years we have moved closer to family and see them much more often (praise the Lord). The photo book service I use for our yearly scrapbook stopped uploading from blog sites. Also, our last baby turned one thus her baby book via the blog can be completed. Considering all those factors I am sad/excited to notify you this will be the end of my blogging days.<br />
<br />
I love this little space and I cherish the memories I get to relive when I look back, but as our family grows and evolves the time for blogging has diminished and now it's more of a chore than a joy. So, here's to a new year, a new start and more time off the computer!<br />
<br />
Thank you for sharing in our lives over the past 8+ years!<br />
<br />
And because I can't post a blog without a picture...here's the 1st photo I posted on the blog!<br />

This was actually Evy's first snow experience. She was too cute all bundled up. She was a little confused and was pretty indifferent to the snow ;)<br />

While the parents and kids tubed the great-grandparents sat in the lodge and enjoyed this ;)<br />

While in CO we spent a few days in the mountains near Breckenridge. One of the days we went skiing at Loveland Ski Resort.</div>

All ready for ski school! This was Nora's 1st time on skis and Sawyer's 2nd time (he took lessons when he was 3).<br />

Sawyer had a few hiccups after lunch (i.e. he got warm and didn't want to go back out in the cold but after a little coaxing he went back out and outlasted all the other kids on the mountain that day). Nora loved it...she also really enjoyed eating the snow ;)<br />

While the kids were in ski school the adults got to enjoy the slopes too! We had a fun day of leisurely skiing. We braved a few blues, but we kept it pretty tame ;)<br />

All in all it was a fun day of winter fun for both the adults and kids!<br />
<br />
Here are a couple of videos...<br />
1) Nora skiing down the bunny hill (you can see Sawyer in the background too)<br />
2) Sawyer getting on the lift for the first time ;) he may have lost a ski<br />
3) Sawyer coming down the big hill</div>

What a joyful Christmas we had! There will be a few more posts about our CO adventures. Also, after Christmas Sawyer got to spend some alone time at Papa and Mema's farm! And once we got back home we started a small house project that I'm loving!Kristenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01170819620013552112noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2567860054862465856.post-34742140023312477892017-12-29T00:00:00.000-08:002017-12-29T00:00:40.366-08:00Makeup Maven<div style="height: 0; padding-bottom: 56.25%; position: relative;">
<span style="text-align: center;">Nora is really into makeup. It must be part of her creative side because it's pretty obvious her mama is into the natural look ;) When we have special Mommy and Nora time we often watch kid makeup videos on YouTube. One day Nora asked to make her own video.</span><br />

She set up her "studio" in the sunroom for the best lighting then she set out all the supplies (including accessories). Then she proceeded to make her video tutorial.<br />
<br />
She is so cute! I love how hard she tried to make a professional video!<br />
<br />
Disclaimer: for those worried about her make-up habits she is not allowed to wear anything except lip gloss outside of the house ;)<br />

The kids each received a new ornament. Sawyer got a pokeball to represent his love for Pokemon. Nora received a tiara because she loves anything girly and sparkly ;) Kolter got a green dinosaur because he loves the color and green and dinosaurs. I made Evy a bunny because she loves the bunny she sleeps with every night.<br />

Kolter has LOVED his 1st semester of preschool! He was initially put in the green class with Miss Jill (who we adore), but after a few weeks they needed to make a few changes so he was moved to the next class (purple bags with Miss Teresa). He has adapted so well and truly enjoys interacting with his friends and teachers. He gives them a hug each morning (MWF).</div>

Into everything especially the pantry, pots & pans, puzzles, craft supplies...she has spilled the bead container all over the floor multiple times ;)<br />
Words galore: please, Dada, all done, yes, no...still no mama<br />
Understands everything...case in point...on my birthday I told the big kids to come to the table for cupcakes and Evy ran from the living room directly to her high chair and started screaming to get in and get her cupcake<br />
Makes a loud shrieking scream when she wants something and we aren't paying attention<br />
8 teeth<br />

Finally sleeping through the night consistently...unless she is getting a new tooth<br />
Plays animal games with her siblings (i.e. makes growling noises with a tiger or lion)<br />
Loves music and dancing<br />
Eats well...her favorites are macaroni and cheese (really any noodle), kiwi, banana, peas<br />
Knows how to communicate when she wants something...if she is tired she will bring you her pj's, if she is wet/dirty she will bring you a diaper<br />

She is growing and developing wonderfully! We do have a few concerns we will be watching one is her speech or lack thereof. She doesn't babble much and says very few words. She may be a bit delayed, but because she is great at communicating non-verbally were not too worried. Just something we are going to watch. Also, she has a lip tie which prevents you from seeing her top teeth, but it may also have some dental implications in the future. So, we may need to get that cut but we need to check with a dentist and an oral surgeon.<br />

Sawyer was tall enough to do the big ropes course so I went up with him. He was so excited to do the zip line. However, once we got on the course he realized he was scared of heights and quickly baled. I however stayed up and traversed the course and even did the zip line by myself a few times. I also talked Kyle into going on the ropes course, but he was not amused either ;)<br />

In November Evelyn was dedicated at our church in Oklahoma (Brideway). It was a sweet time of acknowledging she belongs to the Lord and we have been given the privilege of shepherding and guiding her. And we are so thankful for a church who commits and strongly believes in helping us raise children in a gospel-centered home and develop into adults who love and serve God.</div>

<br />
As we endeavor to be gospel centered parents and raise Evy to know and love the Lord please join us in praying these verses for our precious little one:<br />
<br />
If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9<br />
<br />
In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. Matthew 5:16<br />
<br />
Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he care for you. 1 Peter 5:6-7<br />
<br />
And he said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your. mind. This the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. Matthew 22:37-39<br />
<br />
Proverbs 31<br />
<br />
As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God's varied grace. 1 Peter 4:10<br />
<br />

Some of her newest developments:<br />
<br />
4 teeth (hallelujah!)<br />
2 naps<br />
lot of steps<br />
even more bear crawls<br />
she is a monkey and will climb anything and everything including chairs, toilets, ladders, steps. I've seen her climb on top of a bed, into a camping chair and onto a toilet with no assistance<br />
She is not super verbal, but she is starting to mimic us and we have heard all done and hi. She consistently says dada, but still no mama :(<br />

Drinks out of a sippy cup like a champ and loves her milk<br />
Eats both baby food and table food. Her favorites include apples, bread and peas. She would eat bread all day if you let her. She doesn't love cheese<br />

Claps<br />

I always tell Sawyer...Loves to the doves!<br />
The kid appreciates a rhyme and we've been saying this for years to signify how big we love one another. I don't remember when it started, but it's a play on love you to the moon and back, but a rhyming version.<br />

One time when Nora was 2 I was tucking her into bed and she said to me "I love your face!" and it has stuck. Every night I look in her eyes and tell her I love her face. It has nothing to do with her beauty (though she is beautiful) it signifies that I love to see her, to be in her presence and to experience life with her.<br />

When Kolter was 2 he leaned into my ear and screamed, "best mommy ever!" And now every night I lean into his ear and whisper "best Kolter everrrrrr!" and he reciprocates by leaning into my ear and whispering "best Mommy everrrrr!" It's so sweet and after a long day that often involves disobedience and discipline it's such an uplifting thing to hear!<br />

Evy and I haven't developed our lovism yet, but as she starts to talk and her personality comes through I think we'll find our own unique way to say I love you!<br />
<br />
We also use nicknames all the time as terms of endearment. Here's a few examples of their nicknames:<br />
<br />
Sawyer: Soy, Soy bean, Soy sauce, Soy dog, squirrel<br />
<br />
Eleanora: Nora, Nora new, Nora newser, Nornie, Norski, Ra-ra<br />
<br />
Kolter: Koko, Koltie, Kokomo, Kokomo Joe, Squeaks<br />
<br />
Evelyn: Evy, Eva, Evster, Evy Kay, Elin<br />

Since the Schenk household was established in 2005 there has been 1 consistent rule. Its known as the Hug Rule. If someone asks for a hug you must drop what you are doing and give them a hug. It doesn't matter if you're mad, crying, laughing, deep in a project, sleeping, etc.<br />

The conclusion of the season was pretty sad...SNU lost a few very close games. But looking back at the entirety of the season we must be encouraged because they doubled their winning percentage and they even beat a team (Harding) that went deep into the Div. II playoffs!</div>

On November 4th SNU took on SWOK State in Weatherford. We attended the game as the Storm lost a very close contest. The final was 17-20. While the game didn't go so well, I love these series of pictures I snapped of Evy looking into Daddy's huddle!</div>

The final game of the season also happened to be SNU's homecoming. It was a cold, windy day! We took on Oklahoma Baptist. The Storm did not play well, but they stayed in the game. The final score was 28-34. The big news of the day was some of Kyle's best friends drove from NE and KS to surprise him (and me)! It was such a special surprise for Kyle!<br />

Kolter had his 1st school performance right before Thanksgiving. His preschool put on a little show before their Thanksgiving feast. I thought he would be super excited to be on stage, but he did not seem too enthused. He also yawned about 20 times during the performance. He dressed as a pilgrim for the show.<br />

A few weeks ago Sawyer performed in the 1st Grade Thanksgiving Show. He was an Indian. He even had a few lines, which you can see in the 3rd video. The program itself was fine, but the thing I appreciated most was they gave every 1st grader a solo or a line to say. What a great learning opportunity...memorizing, standing on stage in front of 500 people and reciting the line. What great practice for the future!<br />

Sawyer's favorite song was "Little Indian Brave" so he had to re-enact it ;) Here are a few snippets from his program: </div>
