...But life has been busy.
There are, after all, six children who keep us very, very busy.
The end of the school year was wonderful. The big boys did so well. We found out quickly that the preschool that we moved Libby to was not the best choice, therefore, we decided to send her back to the preschool where we have spent oh so many years.
The summer went by quickly and was filled with enrichment programs and summer camp for the big boys, and summer camp for the little girls. This was Anne's first 'school like' experience, and she loved it. She did so well and we were so proud of her.
Evan turned one mid July. This twenty-five pound one year old keeps us busy. He started walking just right at his first birthday and his little chub legs haven't stopped since. We bought him his first pair of walking shoes. He loves to flirt with people. He's a ham. And he's cute as hell. A dangerous combination!
School started back on 8/17. The kids are having a ball! They love their school and being with their friends. This has been a very busy, but exciting time of year. we suddenly have a fourth, third, and first grader, along with 2 preschoolers! whew! Where are the years going??
Libby starting dancing classes that same week also. After a year of her BEGGING us to take lessons, I broke down and signed her up. She looks forward to dancing that I get just as excited as she does.
This fall will once again bring many changes for our family. We are expecting another baby at the very end of November. He does not have a name yet, though Libby thinks that 'gurgle' would be a great name and Will threw 'Ralph' in there too. Naming lucky #7 has brought many challenges. We are hoping to have a name for him by the time he arrives. OMG, we will have 2 babies just 16 months apart. This will be interesting.....
