Birthday and Halloween happenings!

 

Heston's 13th birthday!

 Well one of my "littles" has officially moved into the teen territory. Guess he's not little anymore. He's been my most affectionate child since he was born. He also loves to just chat with his parents about things he likes or is just curious about. He's another voracious reader, who also loves gaming with his brothers, and just being silly with them. He's a helpful and loving big brother to Ridlee and loves being "Hunkle" to Rowan and Nora. He's managed to adjust very well to mostly online/hybrid school. He has so many interests, I have no clue what he will end up doing as an adult. But we still have five years, before we have to worry about that. He said he might still do trick or treating one more time this year. And for that, I'm thankful. 

Happy 13th birthday, Heston! We love you!! #hestonsutter

Introducing Eleanor "Nora" Avery!

 Born 10/4@ 6:42 pm. 7lbs. 5.4 ounces, 19 inches. Darker hair, a first for us, but something I knew was coming. 

Kieran once again was a rockstar with as long natural labor with no complications. The staff at WH Hastings in Talequah was awesome and let her labor in peace the way she wanted. I wish more hospitals did this. 

Rowan seems excited to be a big brother.
