Oops!

Apparently, I blinked!
Devin is nearing 16 and driving. He will be a Jr this fall. Where did the time go? He likes a girl and spends all his free time texting. He still loves basketball, but not sure if there will be a team for him next year. He is taller than me and still growing. He is hardworking, dependable, sweet, considerate, and 100% awesome! His favorite subjects are still history and science and he HATED Spanish. He finally got the xbox hes been wanting, and hardly ever touches it. He does love his phone and his ipod.
Sierra is 3 1/2 months from 14 and will be a freshman. She still likes the same boy shes liked for over a year and has still never talked to him. Moms ok with that! She got that hairstyle and makeup she was wanting and is unbelievably beautiful. She is sweet, gentle, loving, and helpful 98% of the time. The rest of the time...watch out cause shes tough! She loves to read, talk, cheer, and spend time with friends.
Mackenzie is 4 months from 12 and will be in 7th grade. She is still a little bit of tomboy, but she is also so very pretty. She is following in her sisters footsteps and loves nothing more than a good book. She is a little flirt and thinks most boys are cute. Good thing Daddy has a nice new gun! :) She is tenderhearted, loving, a joy to be around, sweet and sassy, and willing to pout if she thinks it will help her get her way.
Tanner turned 9 in February and will be in 6th grade this fall. This year in school, he did a full year of 4th and 1/2 year of 6th. There's just no holding him back. He is brilliant. He loves every subject and enjoys school as long as he doesn't have to sit still too long. He is still very active and never slows down. I never expected to have to say things like you cant hang upside down off the back of the couch, you cant jump off the top bunk, you cant do flips in the kitchen, and you cant climb the tree in the backyard to get on the roof so many, many times! But he makes up for it with the snuggles at the end of a long day, those sweet little grins when you ask for a kiss, holding a hand when you go for a walk. He is a sweetheart.
Keegan is 7 :( and will be in 3rd grade. He finally grew! He now wears a size 7/8 and has a little belly. He still has that cute dimpled smile and eyes that can just melt your heart. He likes math and playing and tolerates the other subjects. He enjoys being a big brother and bossing Skyler and Kaden around. He is a joy.
Skyler just turned 5 and is growing so fast. She will be in K this year. She enjoys visits with Mamaw and Papaw and other Mommy and other Daddy. She loved preschool and cant wait until she learns to read. Her lifelong goal is to be as big as Keegan. She wants to be in charge which doesn't often happen. She is a snuggler and loves to draw.
Kaden is 2 1/2 and unfortunately we are still working on potty training. He is a wild man that keeps everyone on their toes from morning till night. He is also the sweetest little monster you'd ever hope to meet. He is a mockingbird and repeats everything he hears which is good lesson for Momma that CRAP is NOT an ok word to say!
My RA is still much better. Only 2 bad flares this year. Having a small flare now, but nothing too bad. God is good and I am still able to be up and active and enjoy my kids. Well, I've rambled enough for now. Time to go tape my eyes open! lol

Hello and welcome. My name is Jeannette and my husband Rick and I have 7 kids- Devin age 14, Sierra age 12, Mackenzie age 10, Tanner age 8, Keegan age 6, Skyler age 4, and Kaden 21 months . We homeschool and hope you enjoy this glimpse into our lives.
