WIlder is 1
wowza! my baby boy is one year old today. He is fabulously cute and a total nut, tearing around my house trying to bust into every cabinet and drawer and open and shut every door. He is running, climbing stairs, kicking balls and throwing them overhand. He is a little wonder man.
Carys is beautiful, just like her mama and all the ladies in her family. I miss you all and am sorry to be so quiet this year. I am crossing my fingers that we can get the ball rolling again and be more communicative. big hugs to you Amy about your great grandma. I am sorry for your loss, but so amazed at the incredible opportunity you had to know her and for her to meet your children. Wow. thanks for sharing that picture. its really something to see that many generations of a family together... you come from strong stuff!

Kri, She is absolutely beautiful! Not surprised at all, your girls are all beautiful.
Everyone is very quiet
We took Samuel to his new school last week. He got to walk around the building, eat lunch, meet his special education teacher, and have lunch in the cafeteria. He loved it and one of us will take him at least once a week to familiarize him with the school. We really want him to be able to eat lunch with the other kids (and so does the teacher, we are on the same page with her for everything so far).

rainy day
hello girls-
amy, i'm sorry to hear about your greatgrandmother. unfortunately, my family was always on the older side of breeding so i didn't really know my grandparents. they were all born between 1897 and 1905 ! my greatgrandmother was born around 1870's. so they were pretty old once i was born but it did make for some cool stories. it's great that you were able to get a photo of all the generations together.
as for our homefront, all is good. carys is getting chubby, reily has picked up whining, and avery's tantrums have increased. overall the girls are adjusting to the baby very well but they definitely are acting up more than they were a few months ago.
how is everyone else ? any new babies on the way ?
xoxo

So Busy
Hi all,
It has been super busy around here. Wish it was something new and exciting, but it is just more of the same (but I guess that is a good thing since it means that everything is going at a steady pace).
I am a little sad right now. My great-grandmother passed away on Tuesday morning. She was 102-years-old so it wasn't a surprise (she was fond of saying that she could go to sleep and not wake up and no one would be shocked). She left behind 4 living children (2 passed away as adults, both lived past 70), more than 30 grandchildren, almost 100 great-grandchildren, and I'm not sure about great-great-grandchildren. She loved to quilt and crochet. I have one of the last quilts that she made, we have a blanket that she made us for a wedding gift, and Vivian has a blanket that she made as well (she had to quit right after Vivian was born due to failing eyesight). I am posting a 5-generation picture from after Theodore was born. Front row Vivian, Great Grandma holding Theodore. Back row me holding Samuel, my grandma, my mom.

What are everyone's plans? We are grilling lamb chops and staying home.
