Hello Blog

I have been such a slacker! Here is why: We were SO busy this fall with school and our new (wonderful) co-op that I didn't have time to blog. Grace and Joe's birthday came and went, and I kept thinking I needed to upload those pictures before I could blog again. Then Halloween, Christmas, a trip to Disney and the ocean, Sam's 12th birthday. Before I knew it I was completely overwhelmed, but could find the time to sit down and blog about all of that and upload pictures. So I'm just going to let that go and start new today. If I have time I'll include some of those pictures, if not that's ok too. I feel better now, lol!

We are doing well. Life is always interesting with five kids. Not always easy, but we have a lot to be thankful for. All of the boys are playing basketball right now, and thriving at their co-op. Grace continues to amaze us. She loves going anywhere, so she's happy to spend Saturdays at basketball games and loves school. True to the Wade tradition the threes have been more difficult behavior wise than then twos. I'm talking typical obedience issues, not adoption related issues. Although, that kind of colors everything. Other than that, life is moving along as usual. I didn't include pictures of Will and Ben because they were in Florida with Grandma Linda when I took these. I am going to try and be better about updating from here on out. We'll see. :)
