We are now home from Grammy and Grampy's house. We had a great time and the kids of course had a blast! While we were there Nick and Krystal were able to come out and visit also. All 7 of the kids loved it, even Harrison because he got to see his Aunt Krystal! Now I am just working on getting the house back in order from going out of town. My least favorite part of a trip but it loks so nice when its done!

Precious Time!
I have now found out that having 4 children also means that you have NO time for internet!! It has been quite a while since I posted a blog, so I thought I would give it a try!
Well, I was just enjoying a nice somber moment while 3 of the 4 kids were napping. My days have been going much better since the last time I blogged, I think I might actually have this down now! Which can be scary because we have felt like just when we were getting the hang of things, God would say "Not yet, here is one more"!
Sometimes it just gets so frustrating when people get into your business about how many kids you decide to have. In my opinion until I am asking them for money or to take care of my children, why should it matter to them? But on another note...
We are going to Grammy and Grampy B's house this weekend. So I have packed what feels like most the house, but for some reason we have a ton of room in the van. So I am beginning to wonder whether we are forgetting something important! We shall see when we get there!
Ethan has been in speech therapy for the month and a half now. He is doing excellent!! He is using sign language to communicate at this point which reduces his frustration significantly!
Harrison is already 2 months old! He weighed 9lb 10oz on Monday and has grown 2 inches since birth. He is still a little peanut and cute as can be. We are trying to decide whether his hair is turning red. I have always wanted a red head and fourth time may be the charm! He is the happiest baby ever. I keep saying it is a good thing our other kids weren't as good as him becuase we may have had them closer together than they already are! He wakes up smiling and happy every morning, of course after a good feeding! I just love it. We have been blessed with the kids that we have but then when I see him I think, Oh I might want another one! Who knows what God's plans are for us, but he has already blessed us tremendously so far.
Well there is nothing else I can think of as this moment and the kids are beginning to wake up, so hopefully I can blog sooner than the last time.

Is This What I Need?
I was beginning to wonder, with what seems like almost everyone I know, if I need a blog? My past week has begun to make me think so! This past week was my first week alone with all 4 of the kids. It didn't go too bad...other than the circumstances of the week did not help. Josie and Ethan both have had pneumonia, which was requiring frequent breathing treatments. It didn't seem to make things any easier with frequent nursing, holding Ethan down for breathing treatments and many other demands that 4 kids under 4 have! So, I am hoping that this can be my place to unwind all my thoughts of the week. I know it will only get better with time and adjustment, but so far it is harder than I thought it would be. But like many people have told me, I must have it under control because I can still do it with a smile!!! This is what I always wanted as a little girl, just not this many this fast!!! But God has blessed me with more than I can imagine!!!
