Rob's second buck...

FINALLY....

Two and a half years of growing our hair and Athena and I FINALLY got to cut it. It only took this long because of me, but it was well worth the wait. I had 9 inches, Athena had 11 inches and Paige had 12 inches. Athena and I donated our locks to Pantene. They make wigs for women with cancer. Paige donated hers to Locks of Love.

The older two

Well, to be honest we haven't been getting out much...besides the quick trips to the store (when someone has all of the boys) we have kind of stayed put. I am still adjusting to 4 boys!! I must say Tate and Austin have made this transitions so easy for us. A lot of people ask how I do it with all 4 boys...but I can say back, how would I do it without my two older boys?!?! Everyday is a new learning experience for all of us, but everyone is adjusting so well - Tate and Austin have really stepped up to the challenge.

Hudson's 1 month check

Today I ran Hudson in for a weight check, they just wanted to make sure he was still gaining....so he was just over 10 pounds and doing really well.

75% in all areas: weight - height - head

Rob's sisters predict I will be the SHORTEST of our family when everyone is done growing. How will I ever be able to discipline them when they are looking down at me...oh goodness!!

Announcements are complete

This is what the boys have been helping me with these past few days....addressing and stamping envelopes for Hudson's announcements!! We finished them today and they are all in the mail!! Yeah - I am so glad to have that checked off my list. Couldn't have done it without these two awesome helpers.

This little piggy went to market

We got pigs...we will be raising these three in the barn until November and then butchering them with our neighbors....we named them bacon, sausage and ham.

Tanner on a tractor

This is about as close to heaven as it gets for little Tan Man...he just LOVES tractors!! Tate, Austin and Tanner spent the day with some freinds of ours and Tanner got to hang out on the tractor. He even went for a tractor ride with Lincoln...

I LOVE the lighting on this picture, Lisa takes amazing pictures!!

Thanks for keeping the 3 boys and letting them play, it was a day they will talk about for a long time!!
