Well, here I am learning to set up a blog for our family. I never thought I'd get into something like this as I assumed it was something for "computer tech-happy individuals". I guess I got hooked on blogging from my sister, Tricia, so I blame her for getting me started on this : )
Here's an update on what's going on at the Binford household:
Matthew started Kindergarten a few weeks ago and loves it. We were a bit uncertain of how he would handle going off to a new school and be away from Mom and Dad for the whole day, but he seems to be doing well. It helps that his cousin Tabi is in his class. I believe they stuck pretty close together the first few days of school until they got comfortable in their new setting. Matthew is really liking his teacher and told me recently that he likes school better than riding his bike and even better than feeding Caleb his bottle! Wow--I guess that means he really likes it.
Kierra is our dancing princess! I don't know why I even bought clothes for her this year as she is changed out of whatever I put on her by 9:00 a.m. She has a favorite purple dance dress that she basically lives in. She even wears it out to the tractor along with her high heels, bracelets and necklaces. Lucky Dad to have a princess riding in the "carriage" tractor as she likes to put it. She has a bit of a fit when I have to actually put the dress in the wash and has to wait for it to dry. I guess that is when she just puts on her standby outfit--her swimsuit. She then is a gymnist for the day. Wow--she is one active little girl!!!
Caleb is a little over 3 months old and is such a honey! He has been termed my "good" baby. He is still pretty content and gives out lots of smiles and even a few giggles now. It's amazing to see how fast he is changing and how much he loves to interact with all of us. The older kids get a little too excited for him at times and he will let them know with a wail of get out of my face : )
Eric is busy with chopping. I believe I just heard on the radio now that they are just hauling in the last load. I will post some pictures of the pile soon for all you farm-happy readers. It's been a push to get it done as always, but they have been blessed with really good weather this week and have had few breakdowns these last few days. I'm always glad when we can check that off the harvest list. So I guess that means 2 weeks down and only 2 months to go.......
I'm adjusting to being a stay-at-home mom. I thought at first maybe I would get a little bored or stir crazy, but so far I keep wondering where all the time in the day goes. I am loving being with the kids and am trying to get settled into more of a routine now that school has started. It has been going quite well, even at night, with getting the kids to bed on time without Dad's help. So with that I better get some real work done so I can go to bed : )

Wow, you actually set up a blog! I liked all of Kierra's nice dress up outfits. It also sounds like Matthew is liking Kindergarten a lot. How does he like riding the bus? Now if we could only get Shell to set up a blog...
Matthew, Kierra, and Caleb,
It was fun to see pictures of you on the computer. Please send more. :) Lindsie
