It seems to be getting longer in between my posts. So my goal of keeping a journal for my children is not going so well. Oh well...they will have pictures...and now that they have GPS attached to them they can just figure it out for themselves. Too bad hackers are ruining all this great technology for me. Oh well. We had a good finish to the summer. We were healthy for so long that I almost started to take it for granted. But then I remembered Olivia's first four months of life and I was very grateful again. She is growing...and wow she is a tub of love. Her new nickname is Bubba. She has rolls and rolls and more rolls. I still think it is hilarious that people console me on this, "Don't worry, she will thin out...or that will go away so fast once she starts walking." I guess they don't know that one, I don't care, and two, three of my babies have been this way. And I have yet to grow an obese child. I love her rolls. She is super squeezable and she needs the extra girth to withstand all the "love" that she gets from Hansen. I also think she may never walk or crawl(not because of her great size, but because she is always in some sort of device; aka jumper, high chair, bumbo, to protect her from Hansen).
Molly is growing up. And this picture reminds me of that. She will be 8 years old in a month. Wow. She doesn't wear such absurd things to school anymore, and is very aware of the whole social aspect of school. I am not sure if that is a good thing or not. Garrett is learning to read and doing well...but he ONLY cares about the recess/lunch/social part of school too. He could care less how he is doing in school. Hansen is a boy of extremes right now. He either melts your heart with his cuteness, or he pierces your ears with is scream/tantrum. We attended Sam's brother's wedding in September. It was a beautiful perfect autumn day. The sealing was such a highlight for me. I felt kind of stressed on my own day, so it was very nice to just enjoy this one. It was fun for Sam and I to reflect on the last ten years. We have been very busy. Very very busy. Love the suits on the little boys...at church yesterday and Englishman said, "Now don't they look smart." I really want to go live in England. :-)
