We are now getting back into school life and getting into somewhat of a routine.  I do miss Kaleb and Kayden, but I am really enjoying spending time with Cooper and Colton.  They are really becoming good friends.  Cooper likes to pull colton in the wagon and push him on the trike.  Cooper likes to make car motor sounds as he pushes Colton.  Cooper has also enjoyed making mom and dad's bed into a spaceship.  He hides under the covers and shoots his gun out at the Aliens.  Colton loves getting his shoes and putting them on to go outside.  He really needs to start talking.  He tries to talk, but we just don't understand his language.  If that doesn't work, he tries to pull you to what he wants and if that doesn't work he screams.  Most of the time he wants popsicles or chocolate and other times I am just puzzled.  All I can say is that 2 children are a cinch and that 4 are real hard.  I love them and enjoy all their creativity and energy.  
The Huber family has been staying with us and our children are having so much fun.  Everyday the kids ask when Rachael, Taylor, and SarahAnn will be at our house.  They have been great to have in our home.  We are grateful to get to know them better.  I think they are longing to get back in their own home.  It has been 6 weeks since they last slept in their home.  They are good sports and have good attitudes about everything.

I love the way you talk about your boys. It's very heartwarming!
