So I know that it has been a RIDICULOUSLY long time since I have blogged. I have been pretty busy and, until recently, did not have a reliable computer, but enough excuses. Things are going great with our fam. Opal is in kindergarten now! It's so crazy I can't believe it. She is having a good time and I think/hope she is behaving well. Opal loves to draw and really impresses people with her abilities in that area. She carries her pencil and paper to the dinner table, bathroom, bathtub, etc. until I finally have to say, "drop the paper and pencil!". Evey continues to be a challenge but she is adorably cute and so sweet when she decides to be. She loves to get into stuff but it seems like she is mellowing gradually. She is so smart and it amazes me what she can do. She is so good at counting and problem solving. Jude is 7 1/2 months and he is the sunshine of my life. He is such a sweet happy baby, but not at all calm like I had hoped! He is already crawling standing up on stuff, cruising around on furniture and sometimes standing without holding onto anything! It's crazy but I am glad he is healthy and active. Will and I are just having fun, working and trying to manage our crazy family. Sometimes it seems hard, but I feel like I have so much and am so blessed.
These pics are by Will's sister Beth, who is awesome and can do everything. It was really easy for her to get all of our kids to sit still and take pictures so its really not much of an accomplishment that they turned out so cute. (that was sarcastic by the way).
