A lot has been going on, sorry for the absence. Mark went out of town, Jill got ear infections, bronchiolitis and pink eye, and then a rash from the antibiotics, then a second round of antibiotics because she STILL had ear infections (but she just turned 6 months!), Sammy got his glasses, Josh had his first chorus concerts and is back in piano now that his cast is off, and Ben is a force to be reckoned with at all times.
Here are some pics…
More after the jump!
He loves his glasses – AND he lost one of his front teeth, the other is soon to follow! “All I want for Christmas…”
Josh is a little tied up at the moment.
Ben ate his oatmeal while wearing goggles. Before each click he’d say, “Coconut!”
Honk if you love peace and quiet.

Cute pictures! I hope Jill is better soon. There is a package or two coming for the kids. The stuff isn’t wrapped inside if you don’t mind wrapping it. We ordered them from Heartsong and had them mailed directly to you.

Thanks for the update. Jill and the boys look great. Jill sure has been through a lot for a little 6 month old:( Adam had those swim goggles too this summer. Sammy looks handsome in his glasses. I bet Josh is glad to be free from his cast.

Thanks Andrea and Tracey. Andrea, we got the packages today – thanks very much!
About goggles, when Mark saw him that morning and said, “He really IS a clone of Josh.” Josh would wear swim goggles or ski goggles any chance he got when he was younger. We have video of him riding his bike downhill like a madman with his ski goggles and a CAPE made from an old checkered skirt of mine. Classic.

Ooh, the poor little girl! So sorry that she’s been so sick. That’s no fun at all. Sammy looks cute in his glasses. Mom says that Mark dotes on Jill just as much as Troy dotes on Zoe. That makes me feel a little better knowing that my husband isn’t the ONLY one in the world who caters to his daughters every need. (Troy wants to buy her a pony because she went for her first horse ride over Thanksgiving weekend and now can’t get enough of the horses.) Yeah – like THAT’s going to happen.
Anyway. I’m glad you’ve done a post – I was beginning to worry about you guys.
(BTW – No news yet about MO. Should know by the end of the week…)
