Pumpkin Patch!

Hey everybody!!

After MANY months and a lot of requests for new pictures, I am FINALLY getting around to an update. It's been to long to fill you in on everything so I'll just get right up to date.

We are all doing great. Colin started kindergarten in August and absolutely loves it. He also joined a soccer team and is getting better with every game. He is still really into video games but is enjoying his time away from them as well.

Cooper, Sam, Ethan, and Addison are almost 2 1/2, which is crazy. They are growing so fast and develop their own personalities more everyday. Sam is still really feisty, Addison is hilarious and always into everything, Cooper is so sweet and lovey but is starting to become more and more onry, and Ethan is scared of EVERYTHING!! Every time he sees anything or anybody he isn't familiar with he covers his ears, shuts his eyes, and cries. Its sad yet so cute.

We recently went to the pumpkin patch and are trying to squeeze as many family outings in before Casey heads back out of town.

I will try to update again soon, until then here are some pictures from the pumpkin patch.

Enjoy!!

Holy Momcation!

Cavo's Newest Video for "Let it Go"

It's Been 4 and 1/2 Months!!!

Hey everyone, WE ARE ALIVE!!!!!!!

I am not even going to try and catch you all up on the last 4 months. I cannot believe I have let myself get so behind. Here is a quick update on the family.

There really is nothing to important to report. The babies are almost 21 months, which is UNBELIEVABLE!! I'm already thinking of plans for their second birthday and I feel like I just posted pictures from their first!! At their 18 month checkup they all checked out wonderfully. All are charting well and are ranging from 22 1/2 to 26 pounds. They are trying to talk more and are learning a few signs, gotta love Baby Einstein! Barney is their FAVORITE. I know many people are thinking that is horrible, but Colin loved the teletubbies at this age and I will take Barney over that any day of the week. They have been getting their monthly Synagis shots to help prevent RSV, and knock on wood, they have had an excellently healthy winter!

Colin is also doing great! He is in preschool 2 days a week preparing for the big Kindergarten this Fall. He is addicted to ANYTHING he can play a game on. If allowed he would play the computer every second of every day he is awake. I need some helpful hints on some good inside activities or toys for a 5 year old, any suggestions??

Casey is home at the moment, but that never lasts long :( He was out a few weeks in January shooting a video for their 3rd single, "Let It Go", and had a few Hard Rock shows. He will be on a mini tour with Puddle of Mud, Sick Puppies, and Chevelle before he heads back out with Daughtry and Lifehouse this Spring. He is busy busy but doing great! Check out http://www.cavomusic.com/ for their tour schedule and if possible, check out a show!

Not much new with me. I'm still working 30 hours a week at QT. Life is so busy, I never get caught up. I need some MAJOR organizational help with my house, any takers??

Here are a few of the 1000+ pictures I have taken over the last 4 months. I got a new camera right before Halloween and I'm still trying to figure it all out, so I have taken a TON of pictures.

I hope you enjoy!! Until next time.............

My FAVORITE shot of Ethan. He sat this way all on his own, so picture perfect!

So it's been a while, what's new right?

All 5 kiddos have had their checkups this month. The babies had their 15 month in the beginning of September and Colin had his 5 year today. The babies have all caught up developmentally and in some areas have even surpassed some milestones. They are all on the chart for their weight and height, and their head circumference is close to if not off the charts. I'm not sure if that means big brains or just big heads but it sounds fantastic either way!

Colin - 46 pounds and 45 1/4 inches, 75th-90th percentile on both. The Doc gave him a clean bill of health. He passed both his hearing and vision screenings and got 5 shots!! I must say he was a trooper, so I took him out to dinner at Red Robin afterward for some good 1 on 1 time.


Cooper - 22lbs 15oz, 25th % and 30 1/2 inches, 28%. All is well with Coop other than we have to meet with a urologist. Most likely he will need to be re circumcised. I know, it could be worse, but it's still sad:( Cooper loves to sit on a lap and watch PBS shows as long as you let him. He is so sweet and quite a cuddler. He is climbing on the couch now and it kind of drives us crazy but he is getting better about sitting and not constantly trying to take nose dives.


Sam - 22lbs 8oz, 20% and 31 inches, 42%. No news is good news for little Sammy. He sure is one feisty little toy stealer, and he loves to bite, but he is healthy! He can be lovey, but a lot of the time he is throwing a fit or pulling another kid down. He never gives up!

Ethan - 23lbs 12oz, 37% and 31 1/2 inches, 59%. Poor little Ethan. We have learned a few things about him. He will need to see the Urologist as well and he is getting ear tubes next Thursday. The biggest kicker is he has an egg allergy. I still need to make an appointment with the allergist so all I know for now is he can't have the MMR vaccine or flu shot because they both contain egg. Ethan LOVES to give kisses. All day long he wants to sit on my lap and give kisses. He gets very jealous when someone else is getting attention. I hope he will learn at some point that he needs to share the attention.

Addison - 21lbs 12oz, 12% and 29 1/4 inches, 5%. Again, no news is good news! What a funny little girl we have on our hands. She loves to dance and babble. She is talking all day long about who knows what. She loves to be held and is also climbing on the couch. I'm sure many of you figured that due to the fact that she's been climbing for months. The problem with the couch is she is trying to get to the other side which involves flipping and landing on her head. This has only happened once, that I am aware of.

All in all, everything is good here. I'm praying we have a decent winter with the least amount of illnesses as possible. It's hard to believe it's already October!!
