up to speed with maurika and family







I love this site, soo glad to see everyone and learn about what you are up to! Wow! I feel (ok, felt) so out of touch!
Here's our family update in pictures...First: when we moved into our new home in Missoula in April last year Second: Bridger (10 yrs old), Truman (20 months old), and Mark (should we mention his age?) in the tub - my favorite boys. Third: Piper is born! Jan 12th 2008 Amazing home birth, we felt so fortunate to have so many loved ones around. Fourth: Rileigh and Bridger on her 13th Birthday - can you even believe it?!? and Fifth: Piper at 4 weeks.

Update in words...a few. Rileigh is in 7th grade, loves ballet and her cell phone (text messages faster than the weather changes here in Montana) Bridger is in 4th grade, he's in gymnastics but is thinking of returning to martial arts, and is our expert in all video gaming systems. Truman is home with me of course, throws anything and everything he can get ahold of (QB maybe???), runs amuck, and is learning new words everyday. Piper is a beautiful, wide eyed baby - eats well and is learning how to sleep during the night (see my optimism here...) Mark is working for AEI, a dental tool manufacturer, as the national sales manager - where he is making a huge impact - travels a lot, and still manages to be a great dad and husband. Me, well I'm home with the rug rats - well the smaller two anyway. I'm the happiest taxi, chef, midnight nanny, housecleaner, therapist, tutor, scheduler, doctor, home ceo mom there is. OH! And I'm also starting my own business...more on that when the website launches! Love you all! Maurika
