Outside FUN!!!

Well as i said at the end of the last post, this is a non-history post... We have our March of Dimes Walk this Saturday and thought that this week should post our recent "adventures"... My mom, my brother and bobbys sister and mother all chipped in money for a swingset for the quads birthday this past January.. We finally got it all set up and ready a couple weeks ago.. and the quads LOVE it... it is a lot fun... and watching them have fun playing on it, is even more Fun..

here they all are swinging on it... we added that rubber horse swing which we got for them at their first Christmas.. finally putting it to use...


Rebekah, Evan, and Austin all swinging and singing "wee-wah"... which happens to be the song i would sing when i was little when i would go swinging... ahhh...


Seth on the horse swing...


Rebekah getting ready to go down the slide...



Sepie climbing up the stairs to go down the slide...




Evan also getting ready to go down the slide..





and now Austin... i have come to notice that if one does it, then so do the other three....
and Austin is naked because he took off his own clothes... he is learning to dress and undress himself...


Daddy and Seth swinging on the "motorcycle" as we have come to call it...




and of course Daddy and Rebekah on the "motorcycle"...



here is Daddy showing the quads how to hit the ball...



now its Evan's turn...





and Austin's turn...







Seth's turn...






and even Rebekah's turn.. (the ball hit me on the right side of my stomach, i had a whelp and it stung for quite awhile..)




now Bekah's turn by herself.... look at that determination...





and now here are some pictures i took this morning... we got them some running shoes for the March of Dimes walk tomorrow... and we are stretching them out today so that the shoes are good and stretched out so our feet dont hurt tomorrow...





Seth with his new running shoes...






Evan with his new running shoes...







Evan being silly while wearing his new running shoes...







My pretty little princess with her new running shoes... look at all that "bling" she recently has become a very girly girl and loves to wear necklaces, watches, bracelets, and her purse..
look at that "model" stance... such a lady..




and of course Austin with his new running shoes...


we are really excited about the walk tomorrow and i have already started to make my numerous lists for the walk... my whole family is going to be walking as well as bobbys parents... i will take my camera so that i will be able to post about it...
they have really taken off with their verbal skills i think... we sing happy birthday to pretty much everyone and everyTHING... lately it has been happy birthday Julie or Trey, or Maeghan... pretty funny... they are also learning who is a boy and who is a girl... Bekah will all of sudden blurt out "My Lady!" and we say yes, yes Rebekah you are a lady... then the boys will say that they are ladies and we tell them no you are boys... then they start saying " Im a boy!" or "Im a man!" or "Im gentleman!".. its very cute... and i do have proof... my sister was here during one of these conversations, and heard all of these things... so if you dont believe me ask her... they also like to sing their ABC's... and they get to at least "J" by themselves and then here comes "p" or "w"... and they sing "Jesus Loves Me".. that is really cute... and they are starting to identify numbers... they for sure know what is 8 and 2... sometimes 6 and 7... so i think they are doing pretty good...
my friend got me these cameras that we put in their rooms, they are kinda like surveilance cameras.. WE LOVE THEM!!! the other morning i saw Seth trying to take off his jammie pants, and saw Austin go over to him and help him pull them off then the sweetest thing.... I heard Seth say " Thank You , Austin"... ahh... then in Bekahs room Bekah and Evan were looking at books and i heard Evan say "lets sing songs"... then he started to his ABC's and then mixed it with Jesus Loves Me... so cute... it did my heart good, seeing them being sweet to each other... and helping each other.. not that they arent when they are up and playing outside of their rooms, but seeing it without my telling them sure felt good...
well thats pretty much it.. i will do another history post next week... and try to post pictures of the walk... thank you to everyone who has been praying for them, please continue to do so... i know it is through God alone that they are doing so well..
me~

Great post and the kids look like they really enjoy the swingset! How fun! And, i think Bobby looks like he's enjoying the Tball! ;)It sounds like they're doing great on recognzing numbers and knowing their ABCs and i think it's sweet that they help undress each other. (and fun that you got to watch without them knowing.) Sarah's like Bekah...LOVES purses and jewlrey...so i think they'd like to play together! Bekah looks like a little model in these pics! And the boys...well let's just say that they're all competing for Sarah's affection! :) Now looking forward to the history... :)
