Sunday Best

It's so difficult to get four kids all looking the same direction, smiling and not moving at the same time. I have to hand it to those photographers out there that work with kids everyday...they must have some serious tricks up their sleeves and a LOT of patience! Anyway, the kids were all dressed and ready for church a few Sundays ago and surprisingly we were running on time so we took a minute to snap a few shots...as you can see my point is well made! And no I don't normally have them all matching!:) Okay, sometimes I do...it's just easier that way!


I will be back with lots more. OH so much to blog and soooo little time!

Monkey Sisters

One night last week the boys were gone at practice so it was "just the girls." As they so often like to do they put on the music and started dancing and singing. Then that turned into a fashion show and then a fashion shoot. Jo found the big girls quite entertaining and was perfectly content to chew on my lens cap.

JoJoPhine Butter Bean

I can't believe this little babe is already 10 months old! What a blessing she is and how perfect she fits with our family. Happy and content she just goes with the flow of this zoo we call home. I could be wrong but I'm quite sure she'll have a great sense of humor...how could she not after spending her first months of life with three big kids in her face doing anything and everything to make her giggle? At ten months she is not yet crawling but rolling like crazy to get whatever it is she has her eyes on. She has just broken her top canine teeth and is working on a bunch more. This has caused the most unpleasantness we've seen in this kiddo so far (we're not counting those first couple weeks of unhappiness). She is a great sleeper and early riser but wakes up incredibly happy. She loves to watch the big kids do anything and is such a trooper at all the activities she has to attend. Love, love, love this sweet bean!

P.S. Rocky started calling her Josephine Butter bean awhile ago and Millie has her own version...hence the title.
