Just a few updated pictures...Thought it was about time :)

the first....but probably not the last

We've experienced our first broken bone. I knew it would happen, just wasn't quite ready for it!
Noah was at school on Thursday, August 26, and yes it was his 5th birthday! Playing on the playground, fell down and broke his left arm, above the elbow. The teacher called, and we went to the pediatrician they did x-rays and couldn't see a break. We went to the orthopedic surgeon the next morning, and they saw the horribly broken and displaced Distal Humerus (just above the elbow). The doctor immediately made plans for surgery that day. We went to the hospital directly from his office and began the pre-op. By 3:00pm we were on our way home with a very sore little boy.

Today, Noah is running around playing hard with Abigail and hasn't had any pain medication since the tylenol he had last night before bed. We go on Wednesday to have the pins removed and a hard cast put on.

Happy Birthday Abigail!

It seems like the only time I get to update is when a kid has a birthday! Sorry about that, hopefully this summer we'll have lots of new pictures to post. It's been pretty hot already, and it's just now June. I can only imagine what July/August will be like!

Happy 1st Birthday Cooper!

Happy 3rd Birthday Madelynn!

weekend with daddy

My amazing husband took all 4 kids to his moms for the weekend so that I could go to a Women's Conference. I'm SO lucky!!

really??

Has it really been 4 months since I posted last?! Wow, time really does get away from me. I keep meaning to do it, but something always comes up when I think about it. Here are some newer pictures for your viewing pleasure :)

they grow so fast!

They just grow up so fast! I thought I'd share a few newer pictures. Cooper is pulling up on everything and cruising along the furniture now. Madelynn is becoming a little girl instead of the "baby" girl. Noah is doing great in school, still somewhat of a mama's boy (which is fine with me :) and Abigail is just amazing! She's so very smart and so quick to pick up on things. She never ceases to amaze me at the things she does or says.
Hope you enjoy the pictures!
