December Update

It's been three months since I've posted. Any ideas I had about being able to keep up with this was pure naivety.

I have four kids. Four kids four and under. Ain't nobody got time for blogging. I can barely keep them all fed (my three boys already have the appetites of teenagers).

I will at least update you on the basics.

Hadley is doing great. She is happy, and chubby, and oh so adorable! She'll be 5 months tomorrow and I don't know how that happened. She's my best little friend. I cannot get enough of her. She sleeps pretty well, eats really well (she's over 16 pounds!) and has such a happy personality right now. Having a daughter is wonderful!

Easton, the oldest, is my big helper. He turned four over the summer and we kept him home instead of sending him to pre-k and I love having him home. I'm going to ugly cry in September when he heads to Kindergarten not only cause he's growing up, but because he makes my life so much easier! He spends soooo much time with his little sister making her smile or laugh and keeping her safe from her twin brothers. He's sweet, caring, and protective... the perfect big bro! He started Tae Kwon Do this fall (a program just for 4-5 year olds) and it's the highlight of his week. We all fight over who gets to take him to class cause watching a cute little four year old kick and punch and do jumping jacks is just plain cute.

Maverick and Tucker, well, I love them dearly. I do. But man, those boys are giving me a run for my money. They are trouble. Morning until night they are getting into things, spilling, dumping, fighting, breaking. They are lucky they are cute! We also potty trained them in October. I'm gonna be honest, that was NOT fun. The "3 day" method was not accomplished in 3 days, but rather a solid two weeks of pulling our hair out. I'm being dramatic, though. For just being over 2 years old, and their being two of them, they did pretty darn well. I'm proud. The worst of potty training is over though so I'm happy about that.  Maverick is talking like crazy and the things he says have us cracking up all the time. Tucker doesn't say as much, but where he lacks in words he makes up for in facial expressions. What a goober. We love them so much!

The kids are all excited for Christmas especially since we've been getting lots of snow around here. This next week is going to be a whole lot of fun with these four kiddos! Hope you all have a Merry Christmas with your families celebrating the birth of our Savior!
