It's been a while...

Just a quick update since it's been over a year and there has been no blogging out of me...my sister-in-law convinced me to start doing it again, and after trying to find my password, I'm finally back!!! I will not post any pictures because I do not have a camera, but as soon as I get one, I'll try to get some recent pictures. I will post updated things going on around our household when I get a moment, but right now, the little twins are out of their room, so I must run...take care and I'll post soon...love to all!!!!!

Fall Soccer Fun...

I do not have much time to write, but wanted to add a few pictures of the boys at home and on the soccer field. We won our FIRST game tonight and all the kids were SO excited!!! Jas has done such a great job coaching and all the parents want him to coach again in the spring. The boys are still busy with their Christmas play practice and are loving it. Josh and Jordan seem to be getting older by the minute...I am loving every minute of it although it is exhausting. Hope all of you are well and many many thanks to Jen AGAIN for the pictures!!!!

More Beach Pictures...

These are just some more beach pictures from our trip this past summer. Not much is going on around here but school, soccer and keeping up with the babies. The boys just started back to soccer and Jas is coaching this year. Although they are about the youngest on the team, they are doing great. Jordan and Josh are bothing getting into everthing. Josh seems to already show great potential for our next soccer player. He dribbles around the field during his brothers games. It's hilarious. The big boys have already started their practice for the Christmas play and we are so excited to see them again this year. Other than that, we are just enjoying all the changes in our lives that happen on a daily basis!!! Hope all of you are doing well...I'll post more pictures as soon as I can get my cousin to come take some more pictures...I know you are reading this Jen!!! Lol....

Beach Fun....

We just arrived home from the beach and had such a great time although rather exhausting. Jack and Jon of course loved it as usual and Josh and Jordan absolutely LOVED the beach and getting all sandy...here are a few of the pictures Jen took of all of them!!!!

Summer fun!!!

Well, I do not have that much time to write, so it will be quick. We are all enjoying the summer weather and taking advantage of the swimming pool and slip 'n slide. Jack and Jon love the water as much as I did when I was young. Josh and Jordan absolutely love the slip 'n slide. They crawl up it then slip all the way down it...we cannot keep them out of the water. Hope all of you are having a good summer and I will try and post some pictures of the big boys soon...

Spring Swimming!!!!

Well, I usually do not post this much, but these pictures were so incredibly cute I had to post them. The babies went in the their own little swimming pool for the first time this weekend and loved it. I'm sure they thought it was a bath because we let the water warm up all day in the sun. So, enjoy the picures and I am also attaching some of the big boys birthday party...Hope everyone had a great Easter!!!!

Finally One Year Old!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, first I must say that I never thought we would make it this long. The past year has been difficult, but we continue to feel more blessed everyday. The boys birthday was last week and I had to wait for my sister-in-law to email me pictures because I just am not that organized...thank heavens that most other people are. I am super tired so this will be a short post. Jordan and Josh are doing great. Jordan is almost walking and Josh is not far behind. The year check up went great (at least I thought so), and Jordan is now heavier than Josh. They (all four) keep me busy at home. Jack and Jon are playing soccer this season with their cousin, Josheph and their uncle David is their coach. They are the oldest on their team and are finally enjoying being able to score some goals. The past couple of seasons they played, they were always the youngest and I think were discouraged. But this year they are having a blast. The pictures are from the little twins birthday party at Mimi and Papa's. I think my favorite picture is of all seven GRANDSON's. Mimi and Papa must have done something really special to deserve all these boys, ha! Hope you all enjoy and I'll try to post more later...love to all.

My Dad's 60th Birthday

Here are just a few pictures from the birthday party this past weekend...it's alot different travelling with four kids now. Enjoy!

Eleven months old today...

Hey everyone...sorry I have not posted in a while, but as usual, things are pretty busy around here. Jordan and Josh now have seven teeth and are beginning to cut down on their bottles. Next month they will no longer have their formula...just milk...which means real food. Although they are already showing signs of not wanting formula anymore. Whenever ANYONE sits down to eat, they attack them. So far, they have had yogurt, baked beans, mashed potatos, shredded cheese, humus (weird huh?), corn casserole and of course, Jas has let them try ice cream. It seems like these two are on the same track as Jack and Jon and enjoying pretty much any food we give them. Jordan is almost walking and Joshua just started to crawl on all fours. He did just kinda drag his legs behind him, but now he is just like his brother. Jordan has learned how to crawl up stairs and just today took his first spill down three of them...have to go buy some more gates I guess. That is about all that has been going on with the little ones and Jack and Jon are busy as well. They are so loving towards the little ones is amazes me sometimes. I think they might even be more patient than me! Jack and Jon are learning to read with Mimi now and are enjoying being at home all the time. We have all had colds for a couple of weeks now and hopefully it will not loop around again. Hope all of you are well and enjoy the pictures...I will try to get some of the big boys on next time. Take care.

Family Visits...

Hey everyone! Well, this weekend, we had my brother and sister-in-law visit us. All the boys love having family come. It is hard for us to get anywhere these days, so to have family come see us is such a blessing. Jordan is now pulling up on everything and screaming. He seems so proud of himself when he stands up. Joshua is still rolling to get to everything, but now is going from lying down to sitting up by himself. Personally I think he enjoys being held all the time. Anyway, here are a few pictures from the weekend.

Finally crawling...

Here are a few more pictures from the Christmas holidays...I do not know if I wrote in the last post, but Jack has lost his first tooth and has another one about to fall out and Jordan has six teeth in and Josh four. We lose a tooth and gain a tooth in this family. Hope you enjoy!!!

Little smiles...

Here are a few recent pictures of the little twins...We all are trying to recover from a severe stomach flu and I have now come to realize how difficult it is to get over a sickness with six of us in the house. The little ones had their nine month checkup today and did great. Due to the stomach flu, Jordan has lost some weight and is now weighing in less than Joshua...the doc said now that he is feeling better, he should catch back up. Other than that nothing much is going on. Jason just had his 33rd birthday and in three weeks we will take a weekend for my birthday and go to Hilton Head. Hope everyone is doing well and enjoy the pictures...the first two were before Christmas and the last one is at Christmas with Jason holding our nephew Jayce. They all had a good time together...the beach this year will be crazy with both sides of our family!!!!

Christmas Morning....

We all had a wonderful Christmas. All the boys (even Jas), got everything they wanted!!! We are now settling back into routine and getting ready for the USC Bowl game (GO GAMECOCKS!!!). Trying to find room in the house for all the new clothes and toys is a challenge. Here is a picture of the big boys on Christmas morning...their big gifts were skateboards and bikes...they are so confused on which to ride around. Hope all had a wonderful Christmas and have a great New Year!!! The little boys will have pictures posted soon!!!
