Time..... How it Flies.

Wow, I just realized how long it has been since I have updated this.  Time is going so fast sometimes I wish it could just slow down.

We are still in Wallkill and life is pretty much all the same.
Nate is enjoying his job and I enjoy mine, although we all have those days we dread.  God has truly been good to us.

The boys are all growing like weeds.  
Elijah is in 3rd grade & counting the months until his 9th birthday only 4 months and a week left to go. =)   He has been changing so much and is my right hand man, without him I am not sure what I would do when Nate is at work.  He enjoys being in the kitchen just like his dad, and can read a recipe really well for being his age.  He reads like crazy and I have had to make him put a book down to get something done. He has really enjoyed his BB Gun we got him for Christmas. He can't wait to get into the woods and kill someting. (little does he know that a bb gun probably isn't powerful enough.)  ;) 

Malachi is 7 and in 1st grade. He likes school most days he is really getting the hang of reading, this grade has to be one of my favorites when it comes to home schooling.   It seems like he never stops talking.  I am not sure where he gets if from. lol   He is full of stories and enjoys telling jokes.... he has such expression when he tells stories and his face is so full of life, it makes me giggle. (inside of course)   He too got a BB Gun for Christmas and Enjoys competing with Elijah when they Target shoot.  He has gotten 4 bulls eyes. 

Adrian is 3 and so full of life.  He is always on the go, wanting to know how things work, and frankly he NEVER stops.  He is the most unique of the 4 boys so far. He is definately all boy he wants NOTHING to do with anything pink, "that is my (mom's) color" he says.  I had a pink stripped blanked and he climbed up on my lap and said (Adrian:) Mom, I'm so freezing cold. (Me:) Do you want to share my blanket? (Adrian:) No, It's Pink!! (Me:) But it will keep you warm. (Adrian:) No, You can use it by your own self!  And he moved to the other couch and got a different blanket.  lol   He won't even use the pink playdoh.  It is so funny.  He is always up to something. He sure keeps us on our toes.

Ethan is almost 2 and I wonder where the time has gone.  It seems like yesterday he was born and I was holding this sweet newborn baby.  Ethan is a daddy's boy if I have ever seen one.  If daddy's around then he is right by his side. If Nate walks out the door or gets out of the car with our Ethan it breaks Ethan's heart.  It is fun to get him to talk, we can get him to say pretty much anything. I think my favorite thing right now is when you call him he answers with "what".  The boys will call him just to hear him say it.  :) 

Well, Baby #5 is due to arrive August 12th.  I am 13 1/2 weeks.  We are all so excited. I have just gotten over the 1st trimester and have begun to feel better and get some of my energy back.  Elijah Malachi and Adrian are determined that it is a girl and Adrian says "theres a pink baby in my belly".  It would be great if it was a girl but God's got it all planned.  We plan to find out the gender but it will be a few more weeks still before we can.  So far the time has been passing quickly and I am Thankful for that.  Please pray that all goes well this pregnancy, I am planning a very natural birth and would love for it all to go smoothly with no problems. 

Well I am going to bring this to an end since it is after 9pm.  I will try to post something a bit more often.  May God Bless you all.  =)
