Busy bees!

We’ve been rather busy lately- doing what exactly, I’m not sure :) just thought I’d give a little update on all the kids! We had a snow last week and they all got to go outside and play! 



Harper had her progress report sent home today. “She is a rockstar”- we knew she would rock at this kindergarten thing! She’s doing great in school! She’s sounding out words and reading little books all on her own! She has amazing handwriting for her age especially and can draw much better than her parents!  She taming down her girly tendencies- hug giving, waiting for friends, talking too much :)  we are so very proud of her and all she’s learned already this year!  She’s always excited to go to school and always comes home in a good mood!  




Harper and Carter are doing a tumbling class in Randolph. They both love it! It took Carter a couple times to get over his nervousness but now he jumps right in! 

Carter had been busy at the farm frequently with harvest. He has lots of opportunities for farm time- which he loves! He’s now been playing farm a lot more at home and even found a game on the iPad that deals with harvesting and feeding animals!  We’ve been working on his letter recognition and writing on my days off. He’s definitely impressed us with his ability to color- he’s pretty good at staying in the lines!  


My phone seems to get hacked often and I find lots of pictures like this! 

Miss Harlow... this little lady has developed quite the personality! She’s a lover and a hater! She loves to acknowledge anyone who comes home with a big ol leg hug! She definitely loves her puppy- he puts up with so much from the 3 of them but he’s soooo good with them! She’s taken her puppy skills and is now using them on humans to get them to come to her when she wants, with a good ol pat on the leg!  She’s recently discovered a step stool and all its handy uses. She’s still not afraid to use the chompers if she gets angry! She’s getting pretty good at pointing to her body parts and is starting to do some animal sounds.  She loves to dance and play pat a cake- she especially loves the “roll it”. She’s officially bottle free and her hair is coming in! She loves to pray! 







We are so blessed with the kids and still amazed that they are actually ours! We thank God everyday he entrusted them to us! They keep us busy and on our toes!

(Backup) Halloween

We had a perfect night for trick or treating! The kids all love Halloween! Carter even placed second in the Halloween costume contest at the hospital, his rodeo clown costume was a hit! 


Harper insisted on being a black cat, a cat that loves to chase mice! Unfortunately, the mouse didn’t put up much of a fight because she was feeling under the weather. 


The kids scored well in the candy department!  What a fun night it was! 











Such a fun group of crazies! 

Of course, we had to pain pumpkins again! Harlow took the job very seriously! By the end, she might have had just as much paint on her as the pumpkin did!
