This week sailed by.  I did a horrible job writing anything down and remembering what happened this week.  Clint was on the tractor day and night to get the wheat drilled, so I felt like a single parent for some of the week.  I babysat a friends two kids 3 days this week, which kept me even busier.  I tried to take time to just lay on the floor and snuggle with each of the kids each day.  Parent-teacher conferences were Wednesday evening.  Clint went it to meet with the teacher and I stayed home with the kids.  The boys are doing well at school.  For the most part, they enjoy going, but they are always ready for the weekends, so they can be at home.  Today I got caught up on laundry.  I had about 15 loads of laundry piled up to fold and put away.

Yesterday, I took a video of Sloan singing 'Doe, a deer' from The Sound of Music.  She can sing every word.  She amazes me every day with something she says or does.  I know I am very biased, but Sloan is smart.  And funny.  I love her.  A lot.

Jaide is changing every day.  She is so grown up already, and not even one year old.  It amazes me how a baby can't verbally communicate, but can understand everything we say.  She loves her Daddy and waves at him when he leaves or comes home.  She adores her brothers and sisters and loves to lay her head down on them and just snuggle.  She also likes to hit them and pull the girls hair, which is not favorable.  When I hand her a brush, she puts in on her head and I will say, "Oh, you are so pretty!".  Therefore, every time I tell her she is pretty she reaches up and touches her head.  She is so tall and is walking/almost running everywhere.  She has the cutest little giggle.  She likes to find my basketball and bring it to me, which usually happens multiple times a day and I find it amusing.  She knows which blanket is Saige's and which one is Sloan's and she likes to take their blankets to them.  Good golly, I love her.

Saige is doing well and seems to be healthy.  She is such a mommy and loves taking care of dolls and helping with Jaide.  She likes to wear this little pink dance outfit over her clothes.  She is getting very good at dressing herself and loves to pick out her own clothes in the morning.  She has the sweetest smile and I can't get enough of her hugs and kisses.
