    Congrats on making it one year with those beautiful babies!

    Those babies are TOO CUTE!! This is totally off subject for this post, but I'm wondering what size bow Sav is wearing from Sweet Daisy Bowtique? I have a 7 month old daughter and we're always in the market for cute bows and other girly stuff!
    Thanks!

  21. hi!
    i am ready to come out of the closet! i stalk your blog! i absolutely LOVE you, joe, and your 4 beautiful babies! i am also a RN, working on the mother baby unit at barnes hospital in st louis, MO. i have noticed that you and a few of your fellow mom's of multiple friends have the same stroller...at another blog i follow ("stalk", i am really harmless! promise!), a mom of triplets has the same stroller and has "pimped" it out some. although i have no idea if you have ever thought of altering your stroller, i thought youd enjoy the ideas! you can email me (jennrn1998@aol.com) and i will send you the link to her blog...thanks for such a great blog and letting us (friends/family/and strangers) into your life with quads!

    Hey Suz-
    My name is Ashton and I have been reading your blog for a few months now. NO...I do not have kids...I just love kids and love to read your blog. I found it through a friend that I know that had your site on there and I think that your story is AMAZING!! You and Joe seem like yall are WONDERFUL parents and I hope and pray that one day when I do have kids that I will be half as good as you are.

    Anyways...I think I read one time that you went to Harding University?! Is that true? If so that is really neat because that is where I am going to school right now. I LOVE it there.

    I hope you have a AWESOME and semi-stressfree weekend!! :)

  24. My 3 and 1/2 year old son was diagnosed with brain and spine cancer on Good Friday of this year. Treatment has been difficult, but he is exceeding the doctor's expectations every step of the way. I just wanted to say that when I get a chance, I like to stop by your blog. It makes me smile to see your beautiful family! Thanks for sharing them with all of us and keeping people like me smiling during even difficult times in life! You're an inspiring mother to all of us.

  29. I started following your story before the babies were born and I am still hooked.
    The babies get cuter all the time.

  30. I also stalk your blog! with so many people coming out in the comments, I thought I would too.

    Your family is gorgeous, and you have such adorable children!

    Its winter here in New Zealand, and I am SOOOOO envious of you guys going swimming.. in the sun!

  31. Looks like everyone enjoyed the pool. My kiddos have always enjoyed the water, thus one of the reasons to move from a house that had a pool after the quads came along. The community pool is much better for us although it involves loading everyone in the car. BTW we got to use our frequent flyer pass at the ER today. Andrew decided that he had enough sawing and cut his finger tip off. He literally has no finger print on his index finger. Remarkably he was calm and came in and told me to get the keys we needed to go to the hospital, but he would not show me his finger. We had to make record time in triage. Him and Joe can show battle wounds. I guess out of 13 years of marriage he was bound to eventually get hurt. But I could have done without that!!

  33. Hi! I'm not sure if you are able to read all your comments, but I read your blog weekly (someone from my mommy board has twins and posted your blog) and wanted to let you know of a little contest I'm doing. If you get a chance, leave me a comment to "enter". I love your blog - your family is SOOO cute!!!

  34. Hi Suz, I love your site. I spent 3 hours last night reading from October 2005 upto the present. I have identical twin boys and am currently pregnant with quads! Yikes! Any comments, suggestions or help would be appreciated. You are truly an inspiration. You and your husband are so in love and it was wonderful reading about your pregnancy. Do you have an email that I could talk to you about pregnancy stuff? Thanks Kris
