The Kiddos
Here is Tender, our oldest. She was born on November 27, 2003, weighing 7'14 and 19 1/2 inches long. She was a laid back baby, that grew into a challenging toddler that has settled out to be a very compassionate, strong teenager. Which makes her an outstanding older sister. She loves working as a Tech in our local ER and is finishing up her senior year. She also loves learning all about Chinese culture and is mastering the language. She gets her blog name because she is so tender and sweet!

And then, Hurricane. She was born on February 11, 2007, weighing 7'15 and 21 inches long. She was a mine field as a baby that taught her mama how to sit still and do nothing but nurse her! ; ) She grew into a very happy toddler with a fun attitude. Now she is a ninth grader in public school.She is very creative and poetic and loves to organize events. She gets her blog name because when she was a baby/toddler we called her a hurricane because she left a path of destruction wherever she went.
The Boy was our first son! He was born on December 4, 2008 and weighed 9'10 and was 21 inches long. He grew fast into a chubby cuddly toddler. He is quite laid back for the most part and is very task oriented. The Boy is artistic and we are trying to nurture that. We are excited to see what future the Lord has in store for him. He is in 7th grade.
Jasper Malachi. He was born on July 31, 2010, four days after he died inside of his mommy. He was 33 weeks gestation and wieghed 6'5, 19 1/2 inches long. He looked alot like his older brother, The Boy. He's at home with the Lord and we are waiting for the day we will join him.
Wild Man is our rainbow baby! He was born on August 20, 2011, weighed 8'12 and was 21 3/4 inches long. He has been an early and often smiler! He is the Wild Man extraordinare! Robert says the Lord gave us twice the spirit in this little boy to make up for the tears shed for his sweet older brother. Wild Man has a hard time holding still and talking softly and he brings a lot of life to our home as a result. He has been in gymnastics for over a year and is a great friend and makes many of them. He is in 4th grade this year. He gets his blog name because he's a wild man!
This here is Hulk! He was our second "rainbow baby" because we lost three babies in early pregnancy before him. He was born on August 20th, 2014 (yes, that is the same birthday as Wild Man) and he weighed 10'14 and was 22 inches long. He is nicknamed for his birth weight. He is best buds with his little brother and they play for hours on end. Hulk is so easy we can't believe it most of the time. This year he is in 1st grade. His conscience is tender and he aims to please and love everyone.
And finally, Bug is our youngest. He was born on October 28, 2015 and weighed 10'1 and was 21 1/2 inches long. He has lots of opinions and shares them constantly with his brothers and sisters! He can out eat any of his siblings, too! In temperament and looks he is a lot like Wild Man. He is in Kindergarten this year. He gets his nickname on account of him being as cute as a bug!
