Jared turned 18 months old in October and he's doing great. He was in the 85th percentile for weight and 95th percentile for height. He's running, tumbling, wrestling with his brothers -- he's a brute! He's talking more and more now and he's a pretty happy kid.
Noah is doing great. He LOVES to be outside -- no matter the weather, no matter the time, there is nowhere he'd rather be than playing with his monster trucks outside.
Aidan is enjoying 3rd grade. He had a great first report card and his teacher says that she is very impressed with his transition to third grade. His speech is much improved as well.
Mac & Galit are also doing fine and staying busy. Mac recently had an iPhone application that he created for his work approved and has been getting lots of praise from higher-ups. Galit's notecard business was recently invited to exhibit at a state PTA convention and had a very postive response.
Mac & Galit went on a week-long cruise -- our first vacation without work or children in more than six years! While Mac's parents and grandfather stayed with the kids, we went to the Bahamas.

We took the boys pumpkin picking at a local vegetable farm. We went with 5 other families and had a great time seeing the animals and picking our pumpkins.

Aidan's swim team sponsors a yearly one-mile kids' race. The kids even got timing chips and medals when they finished. It was Aidan's first time running a race and he did great! His buddy Miles joined him and they had a blast.
