I know I know I know.... it has been almost 7 months since I have posted, so sad I know. I really have no excuses except I was always just so tired and didn't feel like getting on the computer! Everytime I got on and read blogs it was so addicting and then I would kick myself for staying up so late. So here I am to redeem myself, I feel like I have to go and recap the past 7 months of life... that could take a while and will most likely bore all of you to death so I will do a fast little recap-I had a beautful baby boy Kaden Marshall Glenn on June 1, 2009. The delivery was a little scary but all is good and we all adore him to pieces. The other boys are so good to him, I was a little nervous about Kyler wanting to hurt him or step on him (he would often make weird statements about other babies like, 'can I hit him mom?' or 'can I step on him'?) but he is great with him and wants to give him kisses all day. I have to step back and look at my life and wonder how I got to be a mom of 3, married for almost 10 years and just happy and content with my life, it is so bazaar to me- as my honey and I were saying the other day, that we are 'those people' and I am 'that mom' with the mini van hauling the kids around to playgroups and school now and to the park. But you know, I wouldn't want it any other way. I love my sweet innocent life, as crazy and very redundent (sp?) as it may be, I am so happy right where I am at.
We have had a busy summer with the babe and trying to enjoy what warm/hot days we had. I don't feel like I had much of a summer, I feel a little jipped actually with June being so chilly and now here we are in September, school has already started and winter is coming before we know it and it makes me want to through a tantrum. My sweet Bryson started Kindergarten this week and as much as I was excited to get him out of the house I have to admit mom had a bit of a rough day when I dropped him off. You wonder if you have taught him all he needs to know to make it out in the 'real world' and if he will make friends ok and learn and love to learn and love school.... ah! I could just go on and on about it all, I left with a lump in my throat and sick to my stomache! But he loves school, he is still in his first week and is already a little bored though, so hopefully things will pick up and he will start to get a little more challenged.
Cort and I and the babe went back to MN for my highschool reunion, the reunion was a bit of a bust but it was good to be home and to see my brother who is back running the ranch. That place is pretty magical for me, I can't get over the green rolling hills and small town feel everywhere you go. I am so thankful we moved back there and I went to High School there. I loved my highschool experience, I had the time of my life! I was telling my other brother that it truly shaped me into who I am today- and I am grateful for that!
We went boating a few times this summer, but not as much as I wanted, having a newborn and not enough hot days- I guess we have next summer to look forward to- I just love that boat and the experience we have had on it, my kids will have such fond memeries and I am sure looking back they will always remember all the great times we had with their cousins.
I could obviously go on and on about the past 7 months but I better stop while I am ahead or I might not want to post again for another 7.
Here are a few (well actually quite a bit) pics of the babe and summer, enjoy!

What cute boys. I can't believe how big they are. They change so much in two years. I keep thinking they are the same as when i moved.
I am just so gosh darn proud of you for updating your blog! That is just about the most awesome picture of me EVER..thanks for posting that. Will u email me the pics of boating and the one of Kade and Lili? I know you are jealous we are going to MT in a few hours:)
I love your new little addition! So so cute!!! All of your boys are adorable!
I was SO PROUD of you when I saw you had updated!!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE all the pics and especially the ones of sweet Kaden in the hospital and all the ones of the boys. I love to see pics of your parents. I miss them when I see their pics. Jace is such a spitting image of your dad it's crazy. I like your picture of the two of us better than mine.
