Everyone loves and looks up to Clarke. He is a great big brother. Reese especially admires him and wants to be just like him. On this birthday cake, Reese set up the candles for Clarke in "Y" formation, because he knew Clarke would think that was cool.
Dara is everyone's friend... always so helpful and kind. She can usually be found playing with Reese and Jada or teasing Clarke! She is beautiful and creative and definitely all girl!
Reese's energy is endless! He is always coming up with something new and making us all laugh. I hope he'll never lose his spunk, but we are grateful that he is growing up and channeling his energy better.
Jada is a strong-willed two year old. She tries her hardest to keep up with the older kids, and they are usually good to include her. She has a beautiful smile, but is careful with whom she shares it.
As you can see, it's hard to get a picture of Ian all by himself. Everyone adores him, but no one quite as much as Jada. She wants to hug and kiss him every time, and all the time, he's up. I've never had a kid be quite as smoothering as her... maybe she's bored and trying for attention... maybe it's a girl thing... or maybe I have just lost all control!
Ian is nearly two weeks old. He's filling out, finally fits clothes and he's getting responsive enough that he likes to listen to the music on his toy horse. My Grandpa knitted that baby blanket... can you believe it? It's beautiful!
