It's about time and other random things...

Caden Lane is walking! Why the excitement? No reason other than the fact he is 16 months and it was about time, don't you think? He is still really wobbly but getting better every day. Caden is the happiest baby I have ever seen, seriously, and he just makes you feel so happy whenever he smiles at you. He had a check-up this past week and weighed in at a whopping 21 pounds and 2 ounces. Small compared to his brothers at that age.

Speaking about his brothers... School is out and we have been so busy. The boys have all been playing flag football again and of course play on 3 different teams which makes for lots of games on lots of different nights.

I still can't believe that 3 of my 4 boys will be at the same school in August. Caleb is going into the 4th grade, Mason into the 2nd and Myles into K-5. For some reason just saying Myles and K-5 in the same sentence just blows my mind. He was the baby for 4 years until Caden came along and I just can't believe I will be dropping him off with his brothers in a few short months. Someone, please stop the clock!

This has by far been the busiest season of my life. With my own four boys, plus my full time job caring for another baby boy for the last almost 10 months, plus my house cleaning jobs, let's just say it has been non-stop. I long for days past when all I had was just caring for my family again, but I also am so thankful that I am healthy and God has provided ways for me to help contribute financially to our family while still being a stay at home mom. I am also so thankful to have a husband who works so hard to allow me to have been home with the boys for the last almost 8 years. It has not been easy all of the time but I wouldn't trade this job for anything...

Well, enough rambling, but since I can't seem to update this regularly I guess random is what you get... Happy Summer!
