All about Hunter!

Yesterday we celebrated Hunter's 12th Birthday! It truly seems like yesterday we took tiny little Hunter home from the hospital. He weighed in at 5 lbs. 7 oz. and only 16 inches long. He was a really good baby, slept fairly decent and had a hearty appitite. I'm so glad we were blessed with him first, to be the big brother and example for his siblings to follow. He is such a great kid; always so helpful, especially with the twins. He has a great personality. He is always making us laugh, a trait that comes from his Dad.:) He is always so appreciative of everything. I've never met a 12 year old so aware of their surroundings, especially others feelings. He has certainly proven to be trustworthy and honest~and I'm so proud of him for that. He is one of the most create boys I have ever seen; being creative started with Hunter at a really young age. He has an unbelievable imagination. He is currently working on creating his own video game, which has over a hundred characters that he has drawn, all with their own capabilities and super powers. He is even creating all the music for it. It feel so honored that I get to raise him and thank God everyday that he sent him to me. So here's to you Hunter, I love you and look forward to all the new adventures that await you.

I think Hunter is just the nicest kid. And such a good brother. You forgot to mention "will eat bugs for money" though.

Ahhh, how could I forget to mention he will eat bugs for money!! I think that was the best thing that ever happened to him. I know we talked about this before, but after he ate that grasshopper alot of things changed for him~ all of the sudden he wasn't afraid of anything. So I highly recommend eating bugs for money~ it's a great confidence booster! ;)

Thank you Amanda, but I promise it was nothing we did, he just came that way!
