Summer is almost here

Hey everyone out there. We here are gearing up for summer. I am getting my mind set on having all four kids here, all the time. Makenna now is 6 months, and is finally consistently sleeping at night. She's gone back and forth for a few months. She's a tiny little squirt and very cute. She doesn't really have much hair. I am using new diapers called g diapers. they are like a clothe diaper, but have disposable insert. Here are the benefits for me - a lot less leaks, more environmentally friendly as they decompose within 3 months. They are flushable, but don't seem to be flush friendly in my toilet. I think our system is rather old.
She is rolling pretty well, and will probably start crawling in the next month or so.
Brayden is just a super sweet cutie right now. He has turned very affectionate. His speech is coming along. He starts his sentences with me. for example - me no want to eat cereal, me want pancake. He is a little over 2 and a 1/2 now.
Cora is finishing up Kindergarten and is excited to be a first grader. Her hair is long now. She loved being a flower girl last weekend in Aunt Tina's wedding.
Ethan is finishing up 2nd grade. He loves sports and is playing soccer right now and is looking forward to camp this summer, as well as our family trip up north.
I have to stop this post now, as duty calls. Maybe I can finish this update later. I'll try to do pictures again, but haven't had much luck lately with the program.

I love gDiapers. You are only 1 step away from using cloth diapers. Dive in and do it... You just need to purchase some cheap inserts... or borrow my preemie diapers from Shannon once #3 outgrows them (use 2).
Check out what I have to say about them from aMotherSite.com

Nice to read up on your family !
Here they are also promoting diapers that are environmentally better.
Have a great summer !
