Guest Blogger

Jack has been playing with our old camera lately. Here is a sampling of some of his best work so far

 Cora Crying

 Jack's perspective of me cooking

 Bailey, nose to nose with Jack

 Jungle play time




Night time giggles

Stay tuned, our guest blogger might produce more work to share here in the future:)

On to our regularly scheduled blog.

Steve and I put together a Bob Ross paint night date night. It was a lot of fun! Thankfully the kids had an over night sleepover with Grammy and Papa because it took us 3 hours to paint our pictures! We had a late night.
 Two blank canvases holding lots of possibility.

 Pretty pleased it's not a complete failure at this point.

 The final products! Not too shabby


We have also been making LOTS of trips to the park and getting outside when we can. It feels SO GOOD to get to play outside again.

 Jack is getting really good on his balance bike! And fast too 

 Cora lights up when she gets to be outside too

Jack grows weary of the Mama'razzi taking his pic all the time

 Possibly his first chore responsibility? Last year he needed help, this year my heart breaks a bit he can do it on his own. But also, HE CAN DO IT ON HIS OWN!!!

 Jack LOVES to help give sis a bath and clean her "stinky feet, pee-yew"

 More and more play time together. Jack loves having sis play with him on the top bunk




And we're back outside. 




Happy Spring!

Life is a Blur

It's REALLY hard to take pictures these days without a massive blur across most of the photo. 
I managed to collect a few clear ones of every day life. 
Nothing exciting, just trying to capture these kids while they are little before that little disappears!

 FINALLY sitting up on her own!

 One of my favorite times of day. A sleeping baby and cuddles. 

 We got Jack a new toy. A box.
Fun for hours

 We made a rain gauge at home depot :)


 We had friends in town for a visit and it was SO FUN for all the kids to meet (minus two siblings)
and for their Mamas to catch up!

 These two are starting to play together. 
Cora thinks it's hysterical when Jack runs around her in circles, and here he is showing her how to be a ghost!

 A rare moment, capturing these two in the same frame

 Just trying to capture
 that
 LITTLENESS.

Let them be little.

Let 'em cry, 
let 'em giggle, 
let them sleep in the middle.
Just let them be little.
