Slumber Party

Last evening was the Father/Son campout at church.  Aaron was in his glory getting to go with his daddy.  Since her boys were also at the campout, my cousin Shannon and I decided to have our own little slumber party.  Claudia was thrilled at the opportunity to plan another tea party.  The girls had lots of fun together and it was so fun to have some time with my special cuz.  Lots more tea party pics to come.

Out of the Mouths...

This morning out of the kindness of her own heart and without being asked, Claudia spent a chunk of time cleaning and organizing Greta's room.  She's quite good at it and I always say she does a better job with things like that than I would.

After seeing the room, I thanked her for doing it.  She responds, "You're welcome, it's soothing to my soul."

Um...could I ask for a better firstborn?

Smoothie

He thinks he's pretty big stuff with his own straw and cup.

Living Room Olympics

Morgan is always coming up with some competition for her and Aaron and Greta.  The new favorite is how many pillows they can clear.

10 months

10 months means only 2 more until he's 1.  I can hardly believe it.  What a sweetie this little guy is.  We love him to pieces.  

Rock-a-bye

Thief

My kids got a boatload of candy at the parade and their favorite thing to do is set up a shop and trade it. They had it out the other day and after wondering what was keeping Josiah quiet for so long I discovered that he had stolen a tootsie roll from Morgan's stash.  It wasn't a regular old tootsie roll, it was the really big, really long kind.  She was a little peeved at him for stealing her good candy.
She left the room and I grabbed my camera.  These 4 pictures happened in a 5 second time frame (I love the info on digital images!!).  This just cracks me up.
