LIFE lately....

I only have my ipad for posting. Sooooo I feel limited on my blog right now. I just wanted to update what's going on in our life, and things that have been on my mind lately.

FIRST, McKoy is about six weeks now. I can't believe it. He has been smiling from day one. He is a happy baby. He can also be a tough crowd when trying to get him to smile. I often catch him smiling at me when I'm not even looking at him. It's so funny. He loves his food and is eating way more than I think he should. 5 ounces! That's a lot for a little guy. He is sleeping good at night. He went 5 1/2 hours last night without being fed. That's his longest stretch so far. His personality , so far, is reminding me of tanner.

SECOND, majority of our household stuff has already been packed and is gone. We go into temporary housing next week when the rest of our household goods get shipped out. We have 1 week and 6 days left on this island. I'm getting so sad about having to leave. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited to be back in the states and close to family, but this has been my family while here. I've loved the weather, the okinawans, the close knit community, etc. I'm really going to miss it here.

THIRD, Gavin won a 2 mile kids race last Saturday. Tanner made two shots for his basketball team. Jaydon is an excellent helper with the baby. He loves to help. I love it. Having a fourth child has been my easiest transition. Probably because all our kids are older and that helps a lot.

No more time for this...I gotta run! Such is life lately!
