For anyone that reads my blog, thanks! I wish I had more time to post. Do you ever find it hard to keep up with your daily life? Gesh, I've really been having a hard time getting everything done that needs to get done in a day. I love nursing Marlee and am so thankful I've been blessed with a wonderful nurser - a true answer to my prayers! I have many failed breastfeeding stories from my other children. But I have to admit, sitting down to nurse every three hours is really taking its toll on my homeschooling and housework. Nursing Marlee is by far more important then dusting, but its hard to look around at everything that needs done. I think I'll get to it and before I know it I'm dropping into bed promising myself - tomorrow. I want to stop that and enjoy my special time with my sweet baby girl.
Our homeschool year is off to a good start! Co-op started this past Monday. So far the kids are enjoying their classes. Elle is especially loving her writing class. She attends a second co-op on Mondays taking Writing The Novel Way class. She will write a novel and have it published!! Very cool. Alex is very happy to start his senior year. Me?? Not so much. Is it bad that I'm not ready for my kids to grow up??? He is a big boy at 6'6, with a bigger heart! What a sweetie!! Avarie loves her Pre K work and is learning to write her name. She just started AWANA (Cubbies) last night and went in like such a big girl!! She's 4 going on 14! Pheonix is really into drama and did great at drama camp over the summer. Madi, my cooker, is really into Home Ec. Jessa isnt sure about choir yet, but I'm thinking in a few weeks she will love it. She has a beautiful voice!!! Megan my social butterfly has already made several new friends. Precious Ezra is not happy in his 2 yr old class without Mommy. We will work on that, but it breaks my heart to leave him when he is crying for me.
Some pictures!!!

I'm Crystal, a sinner saved by grace striving to bring glory to my awesome God.
I am married to Rod, my high school sweetheart. TOGETHER we have a large, blended family that includes my step son Blaze 17, Alex 17, Elle 15, Pheonix 14, Megan 13, Madi 12, Jessa 10, Avarie 3, Ezra who was born at only 26 weeks is 2 and Marlee born May 27th 2009.
I LOVE having a large family. I love waking them up in the morning, cooking for them, I love having to use two or three shopping carts when I get groceries, I love the holidays, vacations, schooling them, even driving my mini bus! I love the busy times when everyone is talking at once, I love the quiet times when I watch them sleep. I love the millions of hugs and kisses that I get and give in a day. The laughter and giggles, squeals and chatter. The noise. The constant, ever changing noise. Even the tears, cries and yes, sometimes screams. I have the loudest house on the block and I revel in it.
I love breastfeeding, babywearing, being pregnant and loving my children.
I love my large family. And as it grows, I love it even more.
