Another Blog?

So I have several other blogs that I mostly don't write in.  I have a homeschool  blog that I think I blogged in once.  I have a blog that I started when I was in the hospital waiting for Sweet Baby and his subsequent stay in the NICU.  It seems weird to write in that one because it was started in the  hospital so I blog in there when the kids are sick.  Then I have one I started to post crafts that I complete, but let's face it I am raising the team and I don't get much time for crafts.  I might post my new school room on both that blog and the homeschool blog though.  I thought a new blog where I can just blog about our lives and daily living would be better than a topic specific blog.

So I will start this blog with a little info about me and my family.  I am a stay at home/homeschooling mom.  My hubby has a great job he loves in law enforcement and we are raising four boys.

We have the D-man who is 8 and starting 3rd grade.  He is very tall he comes up to my shoulder (of course I am only 5'4") so people think he is older than he is. He is my big hearted boy, he wants to do all things that help people and animals.  Of course I can't get him to help around the house?

Then we have Crab Man he is 5 and we will be starting kindergarten this year.  He is Crab Man because he is just crabby, since he was born.  Everything in his life is drama and if there isn't any drama going on he creates it.  Especially when it means he can make Arnold scream. 

Next we have Arnold he is 4 and will be doing Pre-K work this year.  We call him Arnold because he has this perfect little body and makes us think of a young non-body building Arnold Schwarzenegger.  He is the very sweetest of little boys well until he started showing the terrible twos at almost 4.  Before if you said no or things didn't go his way he would say "ohhhh" in his very sweet voice.  Now if he hears no or things don't go his way he hits the floor kicking and screaming.  Not so cute, but he is still very lovable most of the time.

Lastly we have Sweet Baby, who is probably upstairs as I type, screaming and crying for someone to come get him out of bed.  He is our precious miracle, he was born 12 weeks early after a very difficult pregnancy.  If you want to read about that drama you can start here.  He spent 66 days in the NICU and came home on oxygen.  Now he is 19 months old and he is walking, exploring, climbing and playing with his brothers.  He is very sweet and lovable, we really don't want him to grow any bigger than he is.

So that is the team, we are not planning on more as I don't want 5 boys.  We have friends who have 4 boys and their 5th is a girl.  My mother's new favorite line is "You could be like the Poole's" but I have hoped they would all be girls and I don't want 5 boys.  So unless God has other plans we are sticking with the team we have.
