Oh yeah

Sheesh, I'm terrible at this blogging thing. I love blog stalking, and I always like writing my thoughts in blogs, but I never seem to find the time to do it. So here's a quick update on the fam:

Shaun: Shaun is loving being a professor at byui. As in, it's his dream come true. He's loved everything about it, and has been doing so well. He's gotten a lot of positive feedback from students and colleagues, and had his contract extended. His department head said, "at least 3 years, but get that phd done, and you'll be permanent". So..... Phd, here we come! His advisor has been so great at working with him to finish it while he's here in rexburg.

Riley: Riley just turned four at the beginning of the month, and is quite the little man. He's such a great big brother, and loves learning new things every day. He loves preschool, and riding his bike, and is the only kid I've met who absolutely loves his vegetables. We absolutely adore that little boy.

Brecker: Brecker is the craziest two year old EVER. He's such a hoot, but that boy is wild. He loves his family to death, and loves to make people laugh. He'd do anything to get a smile out of Riley and Benson, I just love it. He adds such a fun-loving little spirit to our family.

Benson: Benson is the cutest little momma's boy you've ever seen. That kid wishes he could be sewn to my hip, but we're working on being comfortable around others, too :) he just turn one last week, and is starting to walk all around. He loves his brothers, and has such a happy-go-lucky personality. He loves playing rowdy with daddy and his brothers.

Me: well, as for me- I'm great. Life is so wonderful for us right now! I've loved being back in rexburg more than I ever thought I would, and the same goes for being a mom. I love my crazy boys, and even though things are crazy, hectic, and chaotic- I wouldn't have it any other way!

Baby #4- well- he/she is great (we're not going to find out the gender this time... Hold on to the hope for a little girl for a while longer) :) I'm already very obviously showing, even though I'm only about 3 months along. I guess that's how it is when you've already had 3, eh? We couldn't be more excited to be having another (or any more crazy), but we all can't wait. Riley is so protective of my tummy, and he is always rubbing it and asking how the baby is. What a sweet little boy.

Anyway. That's us, in a nutshell. Just thought I'd give a much needed update! Hope everyone else is well, too.

Well congrats! I wondered, but you always look so great - your hair all straight, down, and pretty. Do you have easy pregnancies?
Hope you get a girl, or just start going for a boys' basketball team =). Your boys would be amazing with a girl. It's cute to watch Riley around Kaelyn at preschool. Have a great Christmas!
