Computer Problems continue

I'm sorry to say, but my postings might be limited for a little while. Our computer at home continues to have issues with letting me log on and post pictures. Not sure what it's problem is, but until we figure it out, I have to use Ryan's work computer when he brings it home. So, hopefully I can get back to posting once a week, but it might be a little longer. For now, there are three new posts after this that are of the kids doing some fun and cute things.

Pumpkin Shopping

For family home evening, we went and picked out one pumpkin for each child. We decided to find a country farm and buy the pumpkins there. We found one down in Fennville that had some nice size ones. The kids had fun climbing around them and picking out their favorites. They were so busy they didn't want to stop for pictures, but I was able to get a few. All in all, except for all the bug bites, I have to say it was worth it.

Morgan with her pumpkin


Jaxen posing with his pumpkin. FYI: The sour face is because he tried to hold it like Morgan did, but it was too heavy. Therefore, he did not want his picture taken and kept running and hiding from the camera.

Morgan picking out pumpkins.


Everyone looking for their favorite one.

Rachel a little bit happier.


More of the same.

Nighttime Routine

Here are some pictures when we were getting the kids ready to go to bed. They have had their bath, their teeth brushed and are now sitting down for story and sing time. We sing a song, read a book, read a verse of scripture, say prayer and then put them in their beds. Gracie and Morgan now share a bed and usually stay in bed. Joshua and Jaxen are now in toddler beds and tend to cry and fight going to bed. In fact, tonight Jaxen has fallen asleep in front of his door where he was crying to come out and play. I don't like hearing him cry, but if I let him stay up then they all want to stay up and I need that nighttime quiet time.




Swim Goggles aren't just for Swimming

We have two pair of goggles that we have found and someone might have left behind? Actually, I'm not sure how we got them. Ryan probably does. Anyway, they love to wear them around the house and are always fighting over them. Here are pictures of the kids showing off their wonderful goggles.

Computer Problems again.

I have been trying to update our blog for a couple of weeks, but for some reason my computer will not let me log on to upload pictures. So I gave up and used Ryan's laptop computer from work. Here are some pictures of the kids cheesing it up for the camera. Whenever the camera comes out, they all want their picture taken.

Kids in Quadruplicate

Here are some pictures of Morgan, Jaxen Joshua and Gracie. Quadruple the trouble.


The kids playing in Rachel's room. Jaxen and Gracie thought it would be fun to sit on the little end table that usually holds diapers and wipes.


The triplets sitting in timeout after coloring on a few items around the house.


Here is a picture of the garbage can they decided to color on.


The kids love to look out the window when it is open and see what is going on outside.

Princess Rachel

Here are some random pictures of Rachel. She is just too cute.


Rachel can now see out the window when standing up. She loves to watch for Daddy and gets upset when he leaves, but runs to the window to say goodbye.


After church last sunday, Rachel fell asleep while eating. I think this is the first time I've had a baby fall asleep in their booster chair. Ryan couldn't resist taking these pictures.




Here is Rachel with her first set of piggy tails. She just had to show off.
