A lot of family and friends know what I am up to, but just in case you don't I will post it. First I have welcomed a 4th child into the family. His name is Jordan, he is 2 months old. His mom (Nicole) teaches and dad goes to school full time. Dad (Tae) also is playing collage football. He comes Mon. , Wed., Fri. noon-4ish. Then Tues & Thurs 9-4. Sometimes he is here more when things come up. He is really cute, but I am definitely not ready for a 4th of my own any time soon. While he is here all I am able to do it take care of kids. Nothing more gets done.
On Wed. and Fri. I do a preschool for my boys with a few friends from the ward coming too. This takes a lot of time, since I am such an over achiever and everything has to be perfect. The boys love it though and look forward to school days.
Then my calling. I am the Beehive counselor in YW. Again I am such a perfectionist. I have to do everything the handbook says and pray for the girls night and day, then act on impressions. I have 5 girls right now only one comes from a strong gospel home. Two others come all the time, then I have two that I am working on keeping active. They are such sweet things, I just really want to give them a solid base in YW and make it a positive thing. Next month we are making quilts. Ya, I made my first quilt this month so I could teach them.
Then besides my boys, school, and YW I have my number one, Don. Since I am so busy we really are setting aside days now just for each other. Making date nights a priority.
Like I said we have been so blessed because of our faithfulness to the gospel teaching. We have hard times, but even then we are lifted through the atonement. I am way to BLESSED to be STRESSED.

Eldon 1 year old
Yes it is true Eldon is one year old. He has been officially walking for a few weeks and been taking steps since around 11 months. He is almost 25 lbs. and 31" tall.
He loves his food. I don't know what would happen if I let him eat until he said he was done. I usually cut him off, he eats as much as I do at certain meals. He will eat anything, really anything. Weaning is going really good with him so that is good.
He tries so hard to play just like his brothers do. He makes car & animal sounds as much as he can, and tries hard to make his little people talk to each other. This usually comes out as a scream more than words but he is trying. He likes to read just as the other boys. Baths are not his favorite though. He is so easy going he does anything, but I can tell he would rather not take baths.
He is an early riser. Lately I am lucky if he makes it until 6am. But he talks to himself for a few minutes while I try to force myself out of bed.
I short we are happy to have the little guy he is such a blessing.
