Our Family Chistmas Letter

Here is the Family Christmas Letter we sent out this year. I wish I had enough money to send all of you one...so anyways here is your copy. Hope you have a wonderful hoilday season!




2006 has been a year of many changes for our family! David lost his insurance job early in the year. We went six months without a job and much searching. After lots of prayer, David decided to do something he has wanted to do for a long time, go back to school. He just finished his first semester at Hazard Community College and he is majoring in Computer-Aided Drafting. He is also working nights and weekends at Walmart in the Electronics department which is an area he really loves! He has been so busy with work and school that he has been very tired and not had as much time with the family as he would like. He is really looking forward to this school break coming up for the holidays so he can catch up on sleep and spend more time with the family.

Lorie has also had a very interesting year. She keeps busy by being a stay at home mom to our 3 children. She has been extra busy since David has not been home as much. Lorie also found out early this past summer that we were going to have another baby. Lorie has had blood pressure problems with all of her pregnancies and this one has been no different. Right now things seem to be okay. Her doctor feels she will only get to 36-37 weeks since all of her babies have been premature. That actually would be longer than she has carried any baby. This would put the birth of our baby at the end of January or early February of next year. So, our little BOY will be here soon. Yes, we are going to have another boy and this will be our last child. We have decided on a first name but not a middle name, so we will probably wait and announce that after the baby comes.

Nicholas just turned 7 years old. He is in the 1st grade and has been doing really well in school. We have been very proud of him. He has not missed one spelling word this year including his bonus words. He has also really improved on his reading and always is trying to figure out what signs say and how to spell words he wants to spell. He also enjoys playing computer games with his dad.

Nathan is a very active toddler. He will be turning 2 right after Christmas. Really hard to believe that the twins are two. Nathan is talking more and loves Spongebob and can spot him a mile away! Even though he really does not watch the show. He has also learned to climb out of his crib which has made it really hard for Lorie. He climbs into Katelyn's bed every morning. He has also learned to climb on things to get anything he wants, including opening doors. He is growing up so much on us!

Katelyn is also a very active toddler. She sometimes gets called a lot of other names including Kate, Katie, Katie Sue, Sissy, and the girl! As the only girl, she has had to learn that she has to take up for herself with her two brothers. Katelyn will also be turning 2 right after Christmas. She is also talking more. She has not figured out the climbing stuff as much as Nathan yet, but mommy thinks that is coming soon! Katelyn also loves to sing, although, we really do not know exactly what she is singing. She does have a pretty voice though. Katelyn loves playing with her dolls. She is also growing up so fast on us.

We hope this letter finds everyone healthy and happy at this time of year. We wish all of you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

The Adams' Family
