We are pleased to welcome #4 to our Family!!

#4 decided to finally grace us with his presence! We are such a lucky family because he LOVES to cuddle and really only complains when he is STARVING or thinks that he is.

Our kids are pretty happy and excited too! I think we have another cookie cutter baby! They all look so much a like.

Everyone likes to kiss and hug the baby!

Not sure how he feels about that!

Traditional family photo at the hospital but #1 was at school. Should have gotten the photo the day before. Oh well.

#2 is SO excited to have a brother!

He's a little piece of heaven sent to spend his life with us!

Recap of September

September was our month of waiting. When was #4 going to grace us with his/her presence? Everyday we thought "this could be the day", but then it wouldn't be. Urgh! I'm not a fan of Braxton Hicks.

The kids have decided that emptying my pantry is one of their favorite past times. I wouldn't mind if they put things back, but they don't think that is very fun.

Daddy has continued on his project in the back yard. . . Needless to say there isn't much grass left. He even put #2 to work. Talk about child labor laws. It's cute to see him "help his daddy". Daddy said we had to hide these photos because now he can't say he did everything himself.

Our flooded road. Daddy said "Don't you dare go into labor because you'll be walking to the hospital!"

Recap of August

August was quite the month! An earthquake, a hurricane, and flooding! We had more flooding with a little rain than we did with the hurricane! The earthquake was quite the experience too! Well for those of us who weren't driving.

We decided to get our water supply set before the hurricane incase our water went out. . . The kids enjoyed filling the bottles.

#1's first day of school! She was SOOO excited! What a cutie!

The little kids and I walked #1 to school! She got a new scooter for her birthday so she was set to go!

My brother came for an afternoon and he got a quick pic of the kids and I.

If you have read the story "The Mitten" you might understand this picture. The kids love the story and enjoy making their own mittens.

I think #3 is part Asian. She LOVES rice as much as her Aunt.

#1 Loves to practice her writing.

The weather finally cooled down a little and I was able to tolerate taking the kids outside. They LOVED it!

#1 had her birthday party with friends.

On her actual birthday we had a small family party.
