We finally tried to update some pictures of the kids. The girl Jessica that took the pictures is great -but we just happened to go out on a morning that looked nice, but when we got out there it was extremly cold and windy! I thought about just doing it another day, but it is such a pain getting 4 kids ready for pictures, that I decided to take our chances. Considering the circumstances and how miserable the kids were, they didn't turn out too bad. We weren't able to even take very many since one or more would be crying or whinning inbetween because of how cold they were. I figure they grow up so fast, we will just be taking some more pictures sooner than later! Before we know it the new baby girl will be here and we will need to take new family pictures with our FINAL edition.




All of a Sudden- it's summer!

This is Miley after jumping in the sprinklers eating her lunch. That curl that goes right infront of her eye is unruly! It won't go anywhere else, I may have to trim her hair soon. I know I should be greatful that she actually has some hair finally.














Colorado weather is a little crazy! They say you can go 10 minutes one direction and find totally different weather. Well it's been pretty cold and windy here for a while, and it never really felt like spring, then all of a sudden last week it's 90 plus degrees and the kids are jumping on the tramp with the sprinklers. The kids last day of school is tomorrow, but for the last week we have been in summer mode.

Poor Mckenna fractured her radius last week at school falling off the monkey bars. She never even cried, she just went into class and when she sat at her desk, her teacher saw her looking white as a ghost and asked her what the matter was. She told her what happened and then we came and got her. It didn't look too bad, but she wouldn't move it. So Chad took her in and she will have a cast for the next 4 weeks. She gets the cast off the day before we go on our vacation. The positive side is that we will save money on piano and swim lessons, but it probably about evens out with the copay to the ER and whatever else we will owe on it.

Grandma Kraudy got the kids the butterfly thing that comes in the mail and you can watch the little icky things become catipillers and then make their cacoon. They all hatched out the other day and we let them go outside. One even sat on Mckennas finger for a while before it flew off.
