Where does the time go? Nathanael is 13, Ryan recently turned 11, and the twins are 7! and believe it or not, where expecting another. My doctor said its expected to be a boy, but we're thinking of a girl name, just in case. If the new baby is the expected boy, his name will be Samuel Robert. We, Aaron and I are still talking about a girls name, but we're not too worried about that because the doctor said "its 99% going to be a boy" but you never know. But here's somthing we should worry about. Nathanael, not-to-long-ago, started a food fight in the cafateria with a few of his friends. He didn't get suspended (phew!) but he told me he got detention, along with washing up the mess (along with his friends) after school every day until the job is done. ALSO he is helping the custodian after school for a week after that. Ryan says it's harsh. Sorry to say this to my son, but "serves you right". He also has this crush on a girl named Colleen. They're growing up so fast! Ryan seems to be very into sports. He's specifically into soccer. But maybe 6 months ago he fell and his knee kind of went the wrong way, I don't want to get into the specifics. Trust me. He had several serjuries and we're awaiting a few more. He is suspected to be okay, but, at first they thought he wouldn't walk on that leg again. Aha! They were wrong (again, phew!) he's still in his cast, but by the end of the next 5-6 months, it'll be back to complete normal, the doctor says. The girls are looking like their father; more everyday! Sage is what you may think of as a "girly girl" and and Madison, is a "Tomboy". Yep, two identical twins, two completly different people. They both love school though, and love each other and their family. Now they don't always get along with their older brothers, but most often they behave with each other. They both happen to take instrements. Sage has decided to take the violin, and Madison says its to "Girly". She's taking the Saxiphone. They both say they love their instrements, and I have to say, they both are magnificent at it! I am quite happy the way they practice almost everyday, and do great in school. All of them do great in school! I bet our new son (or daughter maybe) will be a bright, and talented and not-always-behaving child like the rest of our beautiful children!
