OKAY!!! After many comments of me being lazy and not keeping up with my blog I have decided that I will finally post a comment!
So it has been pointed out to me that since I last had a post a lot has changed. For one thing our family of 6 has now increased to 7! Ethan Thomas Palmer was born February 25th 2010. He came in at a heavy 5 lbs 12 oz and was an extreme at 19 inches long! Our family is so happy to have him...especially Mason and Alaina who love to torment him constantly! Speaking of the family...
Madison is now 8 and was baptized in September of 2009! She is growing up super duper fast...a little too fast for my tastes really! She just completed 3rd grade and worked so hard this year that she had straight A's the whole year! She was awarded Honor Role every quarter as well! I am very proud of how hard she worked to make that award! She is also a very wonderful mommy hen. She takes care of her brothers and sisters even when she is not asked to. She just got finished with the Miss Idaho Pageant....not as a contestant...but was in a program that takes girls 8-10 and pairs them with the Miss Idaho Contestants. The contestants and the girls become little sister and big sister which was a treat because Mads does not have a big sister! She learned how to Hula and was able to perform it at the actual Pageant! She was amazing at it and had tons of fun! (pictures soon to come!)
Hailey is now 7 and just completed kindergarten! She had waited her whole life to get to kindergarten and she loved it!! Her teacher loved having her in her class because she was helpful and kind to everyone! She also worked hard at all of her work at school and passed with flying colors! Hailey mad tons of friends at school and I think she had a crush or three too.... :) She has been very helpful around the house and tries to keep the crazy 2yr old and 3 yr old from bugging the 3 month old! Hailey loves to rollerblade and ride her bike with no training wheels.
Alaina is 3 yrs old and silly as ever! Boy I could write a book of this girl! She is very funny very sweet and very curious! Alaina knows when someone needs a hug or just a good laugh...and she is perfected making me laugh! She is growing so fast too...she has just about caught up to Hailey now! She is excited to start preschool this coming school year as well as starting swimming lesson in less than a week! I am pretty sure she is going to be a fish. If you need a good laugh ask her to have a starring contest...but be warned you will lose!!! The woman can keep her eyes open for sooo long!! Plus she is just plain cute while doing it!
Mason is 2.................. A very naughty in the sense that he is 2 and a boy and curious with no common sense!!! I love this kid so much...but he has given me so many heart attacks I am worried that I will not survive the next one!!! He is all boy and loves to play and attack things like siblings, daddy, out dog Cody, and trees... yes trees! He is a very busy body and only when he sleeps is he still. He loves to smile and when he does he melts everyone with his cheesy grin and dimple. I am interested to see if he will make it to 3!
Ethan is now 3 and a half months old! He is very sweet and cuddly. He did give a early introduction into our family though! He was born 4 weeks early!! He spent 6 days in the NICU but is healthy and growing too fast now! Finally after 4 blonds I think I will have my red head!! At least that is what I think!! Only time will tell now!
So I will try to keep my blog more updated as well as post pics from the last year...but keep in mind I am very busy trying to keep up with Mason....Its a good thing he has been asleep while I wrote this or I am pretty sure my house would have been destroyed!!!
Waiting to go on the Dumbo ride! Arent we cute!
