My 5 sweet children

Kylie Grace....sweet helper daughter with her 25 dollar glasses from zennioptical.com :). She is one of 2 kids in her class who are writing for the bobcat express (the school newsletter), taking piano lessons, singing solos in church every chance she gets, and reading voraciously (just finished the 3rd Harry Potter book).
Josiah Thomas...my boy that loves to have fun and create. He is enjoying being a part of the Beartooth club (a boy scout-ish group at church), doing experiments and creating inventions out of anything he can get his hands on (mostly cardboard and duct tape), looking forward to karate starting up next week at the "Y", and becoming a major Wii player.

Ashley Joy.....a true source of joy in our family...she is riding her bike (with training wheels) and scooter (or "cooter") whenever she can, drawing stick people for fun, playing littlest pet shop and my little ponies, and always looking to be a big kid and/or take care of a little brother/sister.

Matthias Timothy....my mama's boy who knows how to have a good time. He is loving playing ball, cars and train...driving a car or train around at any given point in the day, trying to keep up with his talking twin sister.... loves: his blanket, to sleep (when his sister isn't keeping him up), to have books read to him, to watch "wiggles", to play with his "yay" (leigh)

Leighton Ann.....my spunky, sweet daughter who is little miss independent. She is loving to eat...anything..., talking up a storm and likes to tell me all day what Matthias is doing (Sigh-ee seeping, Sigh-ee kying, Sigh-ee dink?...Matthias sleeping, Matthias crying, Matthias drink?), loves books and her 2 stuffed "tinky's, resisting naps like crazy (she spends most of her nap putting covers on her brother while he sleeps), and getting into everything and anything (i.e.: dipping toothbrushes into toilets and brushing, pulling out entire packages of wet wipes, drawing on her belly with sharpie markers)

It's chaos....and we love it! :) pray for my parents next week....they're going to need all the help that they can get.
