what have we been doing!

o.k. since having four children, my blogging abilities have decreased dramatically, but I still want to keep some pictures and updates going . . sooo.

We are doing well. It seems as though there is never enough time to get things done, and not enough energy to do enough.

so here's what we've been up to:

dinosaur train birthday party for the boys. They had such a great time hunting for dinosaurs, playing on trains and of course eating cake!!! :)





J and Lo have LOVED gymnastics this winter.



Lo is our little social guy!! :) Here he is chattin' it up with a friend.


Lo likes to play basketball on the other side of the court while he waits for his class to start. :)
J likes doing cartwheels off the balance beam! Once D found out that they would be doing this in her class, he helped the kids practice doing cartwheels off the kitchen table. . ha ha haha!!! He's such a great dad!



We've played lots of games while it's so cold outside!!! Here is Z-man playing peek-a-boo

This is our best attempt at taking pictures together. . z-man and I are buddies.
This is Z's "where are your teeth" smile! :)
Meg with her big big bow!!! and winter-red cheeks
we have also played many computer games. . doesn't he look stimulated! HA
We played Hper Dash for FHE the other night. We got this game for Christmas and have now just found a chance to pull it out. It's really quite fun. You set up little cup-ish things around the house, the thing below will tell you which one to hit. . so you run around the house trying to remember where each color/number is and trying to get the fastest time. If you have any active boys in the house. . . it's GREAT!
Logan decided to play with the cups only inches apart from each other.
Zander doesn't play by the rules, but he sure does like to play. Here he is playing a game and giving me a "where's your teeth" smile again!!! :)


Other than that, I'm continuing to try to find hormonal balance after having four kids, D is working hard with. . well, everything--work, basement, church, etc, etc. but we are doing well.

Your kids are so cute! You sure are one busy mom and I don't know how you keep your sanity. I always wonder how our moms did it in the first place!

H- what some cute kids. Z looks just like your hubby and Meg looks just like you and your mom.
About the hormone balance thing, I am still waiting for them to get balanced, I think for me they just are always unbalanced. Good luck with the balancing. You rock!!

Haha! "Hormonal Balance..." I'm trying to find that too! Poor Jake. I love reading your blog because I relate! Looks like you guys are enjoying the snow. We just got another pile of the stuff and the kids can't wait to get out to play in it! Miss you!
