Truman's Birthday Party

We all went to Truman's Birthday party on Sunday, and much fun was had by all. There was a bounce house, a pool, cake, and other treats. What more could preschoolers want? A little worried about the twin thing. Whenever Colin could not see Kaden, he was looking for him and vice versa!
Kaden is a great big brother. As we were leaving our house, he asked if the new baby was in the backseat and if Katharine was in the back seat. He wanted to make sure that we weren't leaving them at home! So funny! At least someone is trying to keep up with the plethora of children! We told Truman's dad to call is if we misplaced any children at his house :-). I keep telling the boys we need to go shoe shopping for the shoe we need to live in, as we have so many children! We then read the Nursery Rhyme about the old woman who lived in her shoe. Colin and Kaden counted 21 children in the picture. They then counted the four of them and stated that as we only have four, it is not neccessary to live in a shoe :-). So rational for 4 year olds!

Victoria is 3 weeks old!!

Wow! We are really sleep deprived, but cannot believe it has been 3 weeks! She had her 2 week check up a few days ago and is back at her birth weight of 7lbs 5 oz, so that is good. Kaden, Colin, and Katharine are really sweet with her. They are very curious and want to "help" with diaper changes, feedings, etc. They also like to watch her while she sleeps : ). So very fortunate to have four healthy children. Wonders never cease!
Colin, Kaden, and Katharine got haircuts today with Daddy, then they went to Petsmart to see the animals and fish. It's sometimes nice to spend a little alone time with Victoria. She won't be so little for so long.

Kaden, Colin, and Katharine are Home!

The kiddos are back from their week at Nana and Papa's house! I missed them so much! The house was crazy quiet. . . Twilight zone quiet. . . really glad they are back! They say they had a great time with Nana and Papa. They even got to see Big D and Grammy. Daddy took you all to Big D's ranch to go fishing. You guys played with the worms, more than fished. Papa went, too. Then you guys all rode on the tractors :-).
Papa took you all to the lake by their house where Colin picked up a dead fish! Gross! When asked why, Colin replied that he "didn't know it was died. I only thought it was sleeping!" Still gross! Nana took you all to the mall in Lubbock to ride the rides and throw coins in the fountains. Sounds like a super fun trip. Special thanks to Nana and Papa for giving Mommy time to recover, and for giving you guys a great vacation! So glad to have you all home!! Love you!!!
