We’ve graduated. Two months ago we had four children, four and under. Now, we have four children five and under- it’s a big step in a world that threatens to be dominated by little people. 🙂 After falling out of his crib trying to escape, we packed up our second crib. Now we only have one. Jackson is officially sleeping…

Owen at Four Months
This is just one of many moments when I am so terribly thankful I didn’t stop having babies when folks began to tell me I was too old. 😀 Owen, at four months, is a joyful baby. He has been rolling himself over for a couple of months. He adores anything he can chew on, or can fit in his…
Big Families, Babies and Blessings

Jackson Turns Two
It just can’t be true! Has it really been 2 years?! He is a happy little man. He loves to be cuddled and giggles so that the whole room will begin to giggle right along.

Lest You Think….
This house stays perfectly clean, I give you proof it does not: The blogging world can be so deceptive. Paul is constantly reminding me people allow you to see what they want you to see.
