The Four that Rule and Reign


Shaylee is 7 years old. She is currently in Jazz Ballet Dance which she loves and she is very good at as well. She will be trying out for the Competition team in August. She will be starting 2nd grade this year which she is very excited for. She loves reading and is currently reading the Chronicles of Narnia. She is a good babysitter and she loves to play with friends. A day doesn't go by in our house that Shaylee doesn't have a friend over. She is very social and is a very caring person.






Brianna is now 4 years old. She is very excited for August when she will be turning 5. She is currently in dance as well and loves to wear her little black dance shoes. She is starting Kindergarten this year which will be a big relief for mom. Brianna is very high spirited and loves to get a lot of attention. She loves to color and learn new things as long as it is based on her time. She knows her colors, her numbers, and several of her letters. She is learning to write her numbers as well as recognizing all of her letters. It is a goal we are working on before she starts Kindergarten.




Landon is my terrible two's child. He is a boy with a lot of mischief, energy, love, and more mischief. He loves to play with his Star Wars action figures and his favorite movie are the Star Wars cartoons. He loves to play outside and gets very upset when the weather doesn't permit him to be outdoors, in which case he gets hyper and drives his mom wacky. He is a very loving little boy too. He is very concerned for someone when they are hurt or upset. He loves to eat tomatoes and strawberries. He loves to follow his sisters around with a stick and keep them in line for me as well. We are still trying to get him to stop that one, but to no avail he still tortures and torments.






Amanda is our baby. She is now 9 months old and is learning how to be like her siblings rather quickly. She is crawling, she climbs stairs, she has to feed herself everything, and she refuses to eat baby food. She says mama and hi and she has two of her bottom front teeth. She is a mama's girl through and through. I call her my hip attachment, because truly that is what she is. We think the only reason she climbs the stairs is because of her strong desire to find her mother. She loves to smile and her siblings tease her immensely. She loves to go outside so that she can crawl to my flower beds to eat my dirt. She is also pulling herself up onto the furniture and walking. She is a very determined child.
