Re: Making a family (all in 1 post!)
Greetings All.
After months of waiting we have our new arrivals at home and are ready to introduce them to the world (and all our friends and family of course) Welcome Ronan James Gordon & Ethne Elizabeth Anne. Born right on schedule Ronan & Ethne were weighed in at 5lbs 1" and 4lbs 8" and measured 20, and 18' respectively. Ethne has blond hair though it's not hard to doubt she's ours. Ronan has very dark hair but like Ethne also has blue eyes. Hope to see you all soon.
With Love,
Charlotte, Marc, Ronan, Ethne & and creaturesSalutations All,
School has just begun and Ronan and Ethne hare having fun wreaking havoc on their preschool. I probably shouldn't say that however as Ronan is excelling in his classes he's just managing to make things difficult (ie. Deciding the class hamster needed some outside time, and gluing his sister to her chair...) There were several time outs there. Ethne however is somewhat of a teacher's pet. She's always helping and deciding to put other children in their place. She only manges to get into trouble when getting back at Ronan. The gluing incident led to much more laundry afterwards. They fight almost constantly but there's a strong bond there. On another note, we've just welcomed another set of triplets into the family. Isolde Hope Blythe & Annabel Kathryn Morgan or "Izzy" & "Anna" weighed in at a healthy 7lbs 4ounces each and measured in at 23 inches. Identical red-haired blue eyed babies they've been a joy. Their little brother Gavin Marcus Reid weighed in at a slightly smaller and also has red hair. Hope to see you all soon
With Love
Charlotte, Marc, Ronan, Ethne, Izzy, Anna, Gavin & the creatures Greeting again,
Izzy, Anna and Gavin are busy prying away at cabinets as they learn to walk. Bad news on the home front, the death of one of the family dogs, Fionn, has left somewhat of a whole in the kids' lives. The triplets are really too young to understand, but Ronan and Ethne have been heartbroken. I've been rather hearbroken myself, we're certainly going to miss our old boy. On a happier note we're just adopted a infant from Germany. Lord knows how this happened but his name is Konrad Maxwell Lukas and he is the sweetest thing. He's got blonde hair and the biggest blue eyes you've ever seen. The kids have also made another adjustment as we were able to purchase the property we wanted and have moved into the home. We'll be starting work on the barn next and anyone who has some free time is more than welcome to help.
Miss you all lots
Charlotte, Marcus, Ronan, Ethne, Izzy, Anna, Gavin, Konrad & all the creaturesGreeting once again
Well, as expected Ronan and Ethne are both doing well in the eighth grade. Ronan is particularly keen on science and is inviting everyone to see his science project at the science fair this Friday. Ethne is handily plugging away and winning awards left and right. She is also in the science fair but her real current like is public speaking. She's gotten quite good and has several competitions coming up so if you'd like to attend you'll be more than welcome. Ronan is also somewhat of a sports nut. He's currently focused on his soccer but he's really gotten into the hockey programme this year and has gotten very good. Ethne is still busy with riding and swimming. She's busy at the barn with me after school most days and really enjoys our trips out to other farms.
The triplets are all in 4th grade now and luckily they all have seperate classes. Izzy is a tomboy of the first class, and runs around with all the boys and proceeds to beat them at their own

games. She's quite like Ronan in her not trying attitude. We've spoken to the teacher who will soon challenge her more. Anna is nearly angelic at school until her brother gets a hold of her then she's got him on the ground in a hold. Quite the temper that little one but you'd never know it unless you pushed it. All the teacher's fall over themselves to help her, and she's a straight A student. Gavin is the comedian. He'll always find something fun or funny and make everyone relax around him. Talented at school and sports we've also found he has a knack for anything animal related and he tags along with me whenever he can for the vet runs. Konrad is the baby and really loving third grade. He's made loads of freinds and is always trucking one or another over to see the dogs or the horses and on one occasion his sisters. He's got a little girl fan club who follows him around which is suprisingly cute. He'll be a little heartbreaker soon enough.
I almost forgot to mention, we've gotten a new dog at the house. His name is Seamus and he's a really sweet German Shepard puppy who loves everyone.
Miss you all and best wishes
