I am not sure where to start. It has been so long since I have done an up date. I guess I’ll start with family outings, because I can only think of three. The family outings that we have done are going to Cole’s football games, seeing Sesame Street live and a little shopping trip to buy Halloween costumes for William and Cameron. Cameron picked out a Monkey costume, William choose a Bat, Kadance is going to be a Lion and Tristan will be our little Cow. I would have to say going to watch Sesame Street was the most fun of the three. I had to stand in line for three hours to get tickets, but even though I got a little sun burn it was worth it. Tristan wasn,t so sure about it!!! The rest of them loved it. Tristan had his two month check up and weighted in at 14lb 2 oz. and measured 23 ½ in. long. He had to get five shots, I hate having to take the kids for shots it is so sad. He ran a fever that night and was miserable. He is now all but three month old and is full of smiles. It is so fun to hear him learning how to use his voice. As for Kadance, he is surviving staying home with Mom and Tristan all day. To him everything is NEW these days. “Maybe in that NEW house.” Or “Let me ride that NEW bike.” My favorite is "How about I jump up high in that NEW Sky." He is so funny! He even gave Mike a bull ride the other night. He has started a play group and loves it. He only wishes that he could go more often. Cameron and William are doing really well in school. William comes home everyday and tells me about the naughty boy in his class. Cameron and William are sad that they can’t wear their cowboy boots to school. There teacher asked me not to send them in their boots because they can’t sit cross legged during circle time with them on. So I have two sad little boys. They are both learning more sign language in school and they give me a lesson everyday on what they have learned. As for Cameron, he has become mom’s and dad’s big helper, always doing anything that he is asked. Michael is still busy as can be with work and his hours have not gotten any better. In fact he was gone for two weeks in the field for training. He did take the three big boys to get fire wood the weekend he came home. He said that the boys stayed busy working almost the entire time. He said they worked hard for the money they earned, one whole dollar each. Then there is his side job coaching wrestling. Well for me I have just been trying not pulling my hair out taking care of my five boys. I did finish Cameron’s and William’s blankets that I have been working on forever, it seems like. I have got one book read and have started a new one. I have been trying to keep up with Tristan’s baby book & have been working on his scrapbook. Well were off again to enjoy our beautiful North Carolina Weather.

I miss you all so much. Your boys are growing way too fast. I can hardly stand it. Tristan is adorable, and I can't believe he is already 14 pounds!

Wow you are amazing taking care of 5 boys. I would probably go crazy. Your family is so cute and I am glad things are going well other than never slowing down. Hopefully you and Mike make sure to spending time alone together as well. I know Don and I don't do a very good job of that and we only have 2 kids. It's always fun to see your new pictures and read your updates. Take Care!!

Where do you buy pig pellets in North Carolina? I'm sure that must be what you are feeding that youngest boy! Just wondering if Cameron is the naughty boy in William's class? It's fun to see your update. Gramps

My daddy is so funny! Tristan is a chunk. I do really miss you guys. It will be great to see all of those cute little boys. I think you are all doing very well & seem to be having fun despite lots of little boys. We never get to have outings. Our time is taken up by football and soccer games.
