yes we are having one more!

I have been so behind on the blog, but I also had a huge surprise this month(Aug). We will be adding the 4th little Sheppard in March. It has taken us a little time (month and a half) to absorb, believe, accept this. Rich and the kids have been excitied the whole time, and I am doing better. I know God has a purpose and will see me through the next very busy years. The offficial due date is March 17 2009. We will try to post more soon.

Kenslee's on the Move August 2008

Kenslee is on the move, she has figured how to explore the entire house. Under tables seems to be alot of fun.

First day of School, Aug 14 2008

This is the first day of school. Keaton is in 1st grade and Kendall is in 5th. Bear with me as I try to catch up.Almost 2 months later we are about to get a rountine going.

Kendall's New Smile

Kendall has braces! She got them the first week in August. She will be wearing them a long time, with more to come later. We think she looks great. So far, she is adjusting just fine.

Destin Vacation

I hope I am finally getting this started. I have tried all summer to figure this out. Our favorite place is the beach. We try to go each year. It is always a much needed break. Kendall and Keaton love it. We always go to the waterpark while there, that is their favorite. We forgot how much fun it is with a baby on the beach.HA Kenslee was really a great baby, but it is still a lot more work. We were happy to have Mama and Grandad's help the first half of the week, and Joyce stayed the whole week. We loved having the Beasley's and Malone's there the same week! All the kids had a great time together. Here are a few photos.
