Birthday pic

 Our boy turns 10 this week!!  The double digit birthday!  While at the Ark, we took his birthday pic for the year.  It's funny to look back through pictures of him in years past because he doesn't change much at all.
 He is very diligent with his school work, he looks up to his older brother, he is a little comedian, sensitive, loves being outside, not as much of a reader as his 2 older siblings, enjoys setting up army men bases and acting things out, still into Star Wars, and just a lovable boy :)  Happy birthday!

Ark

Finally made it to the Ark!  The kiddos were sure happy to get to see it (and have a day off school!)  Made for a nice field trip :)

9 months

Baby girl turned 9 months old!  Her updates are :
17.5 lbs
exclusively breastfed
clapping her hands
sitting
trying to stand
beginning to creep forward (not a crawl yet)
'mama' 'baba' and other babblings
Mama's girl for sure!!!!
4 teeth
does not like being alone

     In other news, we are getting our school year under way.  Still finishing up a bit of math from last year but the kids are mostly into all their new studies for the year.  Grade 9 has been interesting as we now have to plan her credits and prepare a transcript.  We switched everyone to a different math course this year (Saxon).  I think it will be more effective than what we were using.
     Nothing else to really update.  We have a birthday next week and plan on finally going to see the 'Ark'!  The kids have been waiting for that field trip for awhile :)  We are getting ready to close the pool for the summer.  The weather has turned cool.  I love fall!  I need to take an updated family pic soon.  Time just seems to go by so fast these days.
