I can't believe Sarah is already 5 months old, Jacqueline! I'd love to see a picture of your little beauty--I can never figure out how to size those avatars, either, though. Reilly will be frozen at 16 months in mine!

Didn't Marla have some arthritis-like virus after Maranda was born? Parvo, maybe? I'm sorry to hear about your arthritis. How bad is it? I'd love an update on what you've been up to, and Stephen and the baby. Hugs!

Marla is so sweet! Glad to hear that you can cope with the arthritis fairly well and that the kids are doing great. They grow up so fast! Brody is already half-way through his Kindergarten year, and Avery just turned 4 and is following Stephen's example by becoming quite the little artist. Reilly is her usual silly self--full of life, that one! I put a picture of them in the Updates folder. I'm going to remember to email you so I can see Sarah--gotta get my baby fix!
