My sadly neglected blog... an update on us

Does it help to know that I've thought about blogging many times in the last 2 months?  It seems that once I get out of the habit of it, I go months without updating.  Hopefully this post will kick me in the pants and get me in the habit again. 


We are all doing well.  All of us got the flu last week and were down, but today other than a little coughing left, we are feeling back to normal.   As requested, below is an update on everyone individually,IMG_7629-web


Cole is 4 1/2 now and can't wait to be 5.  He's been talking about being 5 for 2 years and is probably going to be disappointed when he actually turns 5 because he's got it in his head and that he can do anything once he's 5 ;).  I've started homeschooling with him this year just doing some preschool stuff and he's also still going to our church's Weeschool program 2 days a week.  Next year, we will homeschool full-time as he starts pre-k at home.


Connor just turned 3 and I can't believe it.  He had a great birthday party even though that's the day we realized everyone was starting to get sick.  He had a great time with his friends though at his Mickey Mouse party.  Connor's favorite thing right now is to watch movies and would stay in front of the tv all day if we let him.  He spends most of his time trying to keep up with Cole.  Here are a few pics from his party,

Caleb is 20 months old now and is the busiest child I've ever known.  He is into everything and rarely sits still unless he is eating or sleeping.  He cracks us up all the time and is obsessed with hats right now as you can see.  I don't believe he realizes he's younger than his brothers because he gets really mad when he can't do something they are doing.  My house is messier than it's ever been with him around, but we're having fun and it will be clean again one day, right?
