Ramblings...
We have had Internet trouble for the last three months and have not had it working at all for the last few weeks. Turns out my laptop (our only computer) is on the verge of crashing because the memory is almost completely full. This explains my downloading pictures problem. So, I have spent the last few nights deleting old files, programs, pictures, etc. I have put hours and hours into this and would you believe I have only freed 8% of my memory! Very disappointing. I think I need at least 15% to finish installing my new Internet start up. Do I really have time for all of this?
Moving on.
Kinzlee sat on Jordan's lap tonight and read him the entire book, The Giving Tree. She had the first couple of pages memorized, but it was all sight reading from there. She is an amazing reader and every time I hear her I am just floored. She can't wait to start Kindergarten, and keeps telling me she wishes it was Corbin's birthday because then it would be time for her to go to school.
Corbin changed his first diaper tonight and it was so entertaining. He had to wrestle Adley to the ground to get her to lay down. He is such a great big brother. The twiners both followed him and his friend around the house while they played today and he made sure they both had a car so they could play too.
Adley is a mover and a shaker! Man that girl can go! She literally skids around corners. She wants to be where the action is and will follow the older kids anywhere they go. Often they get tired of her wrecking their things and will put her out of their room and shut the door. She bawls like she is dying and won't stop until she is let back in. She finally had her second top tooth break through this week and her bottom two are almost here.
Brecklyn is very content, but in a feisty sort of way. I think of all my children she is showing the most characteristics of her mother. Although she did finally pick up crawling, she is still content to sit in one place and play. However, if you mess with her toys, you are going to get a scratch, pinch, or poke in your face and a yell that will let you know who's boss.
It's so fun to watch them all become their own little person.

I am amazed that Kinzlee can read! She is going to be way above most kids - or at least my kid in kindergarten - AMAZING! That is darling that Corbin changed a diaper. What a cute family!

Kinzlee's reading? Freaking CRAP we are behind. And I'm mad about it. Well, Lexie knows all the keys on the piano. Try and top that pianoless ones. Crap.

I am sad we missed you in St. George. We were only at Corby's for a bit. Then we headed back to the hotel to get ready for the drive to vegas. I think I saw your house though! Cute neighborhood.

You need to get an external hard drive. Then you can move ALL of your photos onto it- which I'm guessing is what's takin up most of the space. Hard drives are around $100-$300, but you'll free up lots of space on your computer and everything will run smoother.

I will be buying one next week when I get MY new laptop to start my new job.
