I LOVED reading this! I am totally going to do my family too. I'm amazed at how much our boys are alike and sad we don't live closer to play more. I secretly wish you end up in Northern California too! That would be cool if you really were pregnant! Your family is too darn cute and we sure miss you all. If someone smells a stinky diaper I sure hope it's Peyton's... that would be discusting if it was yours.
So cute. I enjoyed reading it. You truly are a special family, and I am glad I got the chance to know you all. Thanks for the insight to your lives.
oh erin! i'm glad you did that too. was it hard for you to come up with 25 things. it took me a long time. but it was really fun. fun to read about you guys!
What a fun post! I had to dedicate a whole night to coming up with 100 things about me for my 100th post. Isn't it hard? I didn't know you had a teaching degree. Is it in ElED? Did you teach at all? Your kids sound so cute. It's fun to see how two kids are different, your two boys from each other and even how Isabelle is different from them.
You're so good to like teaching Sharing Time - I'm doing it tomorrow, forgot about it until tonight, etc. I have trouble teaching so many ages of kids, and keeping their attention.
Ben liked #11 on Lynn's list. :)
Hey Lynn, Good to hear from you. Sounds like things are going good for you guys. Hard to believe you are almost done. Pros huh? Good for you. You'll be done long before me. Things are good here though. I am liking residency, keeps me busy. I am in med school right now. It is going well. Deanna and the kids are having fun, there is lots to do and see out here. Say hi to everyone out there at Creighton.
Mike
