I know it has been a while



I know it has been so long and I have said for the last three weeks I was going to write, but I just haven't had time. I like my new school but its no Baccus. I really miss it there. Everyone is pretty friendly but they aren't a family. I am teaching prek. I have 23 three yearolds and 1 aid in the morning and 15 four year olds in the afternoon. We are supposed to have a new teacher start on Monday to split the load but we will see. Its a lot but for the most part they are good kids.



We have settled in to our new home and are loving the country life. When we go out to play in the evening Shane sits at the edge of the yard and hunts dove. (You might be a redneck! :)



The babies are doing wonderful. They stay with my sister Katie during the day and on Thursdays my mom comes. They are loving it here too. They have learned what a cow is and if you ask them what does a cow say the go mooo and can say cow. All are walking and are growing so tall. We have to make sure we keep things away from the edge of the table or they will get it. We had their 15 month check up and the Dr was very impressed with how well they are doing. He said that developmentally they are 15 months and not 3 months behind like most preemie babies. Dylan is 23lbs, Hayla and Clayton are 20lbs.





Hayla has become our little mother. When the boys cry she goes and finds a pacifier and gives it to them and loves on them and if I give them a snack when I fix dinner she takes some to the boys and feeds it to them.





Dylan is our climber if its tall he will do his best to climb it. Makes us so nervous.





Clayton is our dare devil. He will climb up on top of stuff, riding in the wagon he likes to let go, and he just thinks he's big stuff. He is also getting glasses. We noticed last month that one of his eyes was turning in and so we went to the eye dr and sure enough he needed glasses. We pick them up next week. It is going to be interesting.





Tomorrow we will be on our way to the deer lease for the first time. I will let you know how that goes.
