Blogging Delinquent

So I'm proving to be a pretty poor blogger. I have no pictures to show you today, but I thought an update might be helpful to some of you living in places other than East Tennessee.

Caroline is continuing to make her mom and dad happy by sleeping and eating as well as a junior high boy. Last night she slept 8 hours through the night at just over five weeks old. When you wake up you're not sure whether to be thrilled with a full nights sleep or panic-stricken because your baby didn't wake up during the night. After three kids, though, it's a much quicker transition to thrilled. She's also smiling a lot now and showing us her pearly whites...or where her pearly whites will one day be.

Speaking of children with no teeth, Anna is about to loose her first tooth, and surprisingly, is quite excited by the entire enterprise. As of yet, she doesn't seem to know that loosing teeth requires ripping bone from flesh. I'm not going to be the one to tell her. She also started the first grade yesterday, which is enough to make her mom and dad a little nostalgic.

Luke is a trooper. He continues to be unfazed by being outnumbered by the girls. He is still a few weeks short of starting preschool, so he spends his days reading books, playing outside and missing his sister.

All in all, life is good. I'll see if we can't upload some pictures in the next few days.
