Long Time :-)

All is well here and thankfully you have not been waiting on this blog for the update. Here is a quick run down of the last few months.

Caleb: Started Pre-K in mid August at Saint Vincent de Paul and loves it. He is also playing pre-k soccer and seems to really enjoy the competition. All we know is he likes to play and win, we are working on the what if you do not win part.

Joshua: Long and fast! He is a chef's delight in that he will eat anything you place in front of him and he loves it. Naps are optional but skipping a meal is not.

Major: Works the Aunts and Grandma's hard. It is rare when he is not holding court and getting his way with someone.

Cooper: Big Man but thankfully does not know it just yet. We are not sure what he likes other than peanuts and yogurt, but on occasion he gives in to our other offerings but rarely back to back.

As a family we are doing well mentally and physically and by the Grace of God it will continue.

All Is Well

It has been a while so I thought I would offer an update on all the brothers.

Caleb - Friday will be his last day of school at St. Georges. Currently he goes three days a week and has been going there full or part time since he was three months old. He will be off for the summer, going to a few camps and then he and Andrew (cousin) start Pre-K at SVDP in the fall.

Cooper - doing wonderfully and really enjoying that he is the only one in a big boy bed. He absolutely loves dinosaurs and can not stand it when anyone of the others encroaches on his dinosaur space.

Major - always quick with a quip that makes you laugh. He loves books and always wants someone to read to him. His mantra is "I need to read a book Momma, I need to READ A BOOK!"

Joshua - is by far the best eater and has a great metabolism to go with it thankfully. He is in love with his cars and trucks. He also loves bugs, worms, and whatever moves out there.

Take care,

New Pics for Feb

To all hello and may the President's speech tonight give you hope (future President Jindal that is)!

Here is what Paige uses to haul the dudes around. It works great for walks around the neighborhood and zoo.

I can assure you we let Bop Bop in as fast as we can to help out.

Bop Bop (the short guy outside the gate), Major at the gate, Joshua in the middle, and Caleb. The "Mini Van" is in the background, what a great invention.

Cooper with a peace offering.

To all a good night!

Dinner!

Christmas 2008

This picture of Major was just too cute not to post....

At this point Josh has refused to put on his Christmas jammies....but eventually he did :)

Cooper says....."Cheeeese!"

Major..."I'm even cute blurry!"

Caleb getting ready for SANTA!

Some Christmas mischief.....(see Josh's p.j.'s) Coop is hanging back away from the trouble makers. A few seconds later he was raising his finger - pointing at Josh and Major - saying "No No No!"

More Updates and Pics

We celebrated Nana's birthday on Sunday (Dec 14th) and had a special visitor (Uncle Jim, one of Bop Bop's many brothers) from Seattle. Here are a few more pics of all the brothers. Also in case I have not mentioned a super special thank you to Aunt Jill who allowed us to go to the Bahamas for a few days. Also she got help from Grandpatti and Aunt Pam who came in from Dallas to help.

Joshua pondering the finer things in life

Cooper wanting to borrow the camera - everything is his right now.

Caleb the tree and a couple of onlookers :-)

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!

A Few New Picks

New pics taken within the last month --



In the front two rooms (called the toy room) is where we all live the majority of the time. We have a couch turned the opposite way so the three dudes can not climb in. Caleb can of course but no worries with him. Now of course Mr. Cooper has found away in, he pulls a bean bag chair over and uses that to climb over on to the couch. It really is not that bad as you can see, it is fully padded and they love jumping around on it.

Cooper in blue; Caleb front and center; Joshua looking the other way; Major copying Caleb;



Cooper, no doubt devising some plan to escape the toy room and roam around the house.

Caleb enjoying the cold air.

Joshua having a laugh attack :-)

Caleb and Dad

Caleb showing off his shirt and hat we bought him on our trip to the Bahamas (More on that later).

Major showing one of his many smiles. He has an array of smiles and uses them at his discretion and for his benefit.
