A little commentary...

So I realized that I have lots and lots of pictures and not much commentary. Not that you'd rather read my commentary than look at my cute kids, but maybe it would be nice to mix it up a bit. So I thought to start off the sure to be boring commentary I would tell a few little known details about each of us.
Ireland--Ireland likes to sleep hanging off the side of her bed. When I check on her at night she always has a leg dangling off the side of the bed. I think she uses maybe a foot long strip of her queen size bed. Ireland has the hairiest legs I've ever seen on a girl. I am so tempted to shave them, but she's only 7. She loves drama (I can't relate!). She askes me every every every single day before she leaves for school if I am going to be home when she gets home. Every day!! So I ask her every day if she is going to come home from school.
Ethan--Ethan sleeps with the comforter over his head. He sweats like a man, so this is not a good idea. I keep telling him not to put it over his head, but he says he is scared someone will break into our house and if he is "hiding" they won't get him--(Just the rest of us). Ethan loves Thai peanut sauce on everything. I've seen him dip everything from chips to pizza to a peanut butter sandwich in it. He loves to snuggle. Give him a blanket and he's good.
Ryan--Ryan loves chocolate milk. He would drink this and only this for every meal and snack. Food means nothing to him. He loves to chase Ethan around the house with a play sword. He is our only child(so far) that has written on the walls and furniture with marker or crayon, dented the wall by throwing toys down the stairs, and broken toys by throwing them up in the air and crashing them to the floor. Any damage done to the house--Ryan.
Caleb--Caleb does not love to snuggle. He likes to be held facing outward. When people come up to him and smile and want to touch his hand, he pulls it away. He laughs at Ryan and Ethan all the time, especially when they are chasing each other or throwing tantrums. He loves his crib and will go to sleep on his own if he's wrapped up in his crib. He drools all the time. Never had such a drooler? And no teeth yet!
Scott--Scott is a fanatic about keeping the yard green and free of any debris, mowed and edged perfectly, and the driveway free of any snow or leaves. He has gotten up before at 4:30 am to shovel the driveway and has raked or mowed the lawn several times in the dark after getting home late from work. Scott loves to snack on any kind of fruit (blueberries are his favorite). He sometimes gets out a bottle of water, a diet pepsi, and a glass of milk at the same time. Rarely does he drink them all at one setting, but for some reason he does this?
Me--I love babies! I would have lots and lots of them if I didn't have to be pregnant and could give them away between the ages of 2-3. I love milk. I drink about 8 glasses a day. I clean the house from top to bottom every day, but I'm not a duster. I forget to dust frequently. I like to stay up late, even when I know I'll be up several times a night with the baby. My favorite TV show is the Amazing Race. Scott and I comment frequently on how we would go crazy if we were contestants on that show. We are not good with frustrating situations.
