Latests...


We LOVE watching Tanner play soccer! He is having such a blast!




Ben+ mealtime= fun, laughter, and endless sticky grains of oatmeal that are not the easiest to clean up. On the plus side, all the protein he's been consuming has him tipping the scales at a whopping 22 pounds. A little perspective-Eva our three year old is only 30 pounds. Ben's catching up, Eva!






The lower picture is a "preview" of school pictures. We had to snap some of our own. I love the equality and ease of school uniforms. Our children, however, do not. It stifles their creative liberties with clothing, so they say. I for one am all for bypassing the resurgence of 80's rocker gear.
















Illness, like necessity, must be the mother of all invention. I think my kids are bored to death with the cough/cold they have because they are devising all sorts of hilarious play games. Todays game was "paparazzi," of course invented by Grace. She has the funniest sense of humor and dressed Eva up like a star "undercover." She told Eva to run because she was the paparazzi and would take her photo! And, that she did. Though Eva seemed less like a camera shy super star and more like a crazy diva. Maybe Eva is famous for those wicked crazy splits she can pull. Ouch! Grace also told Eva today that she better hurry and wash her hair in the shower, or she was sure to get dreadlocks. Seriously?

Hi Ujifusas! Wow, I had a lot to catch up on. It was so fun reading about funny Eva and Grace. Those two crack me up; they are so cute!

I also LOVED the post about Grace's final spinal tap. That is so exciting that the end is just around the corner!!!! I couldn't help getting teary eyes. I'm so so so proud of Grace and all of you for making it through. Love you guys.

Dreadlocks?!? She better hurry and get that shower. :D I love the paparazzi shots, and I love the real photos too. Get feeling better!

Tanner looks so old in that close-up photo!! He is such a great kid. Eva and Kassie may be twins--how darling. I personally love uniforms and wish so bad that Ellie could wear them--apparently I failed to notice that she was the ONLY girl without jeggings in the third grade--what kind of parent am I? Cute family and have the best time in Disneyland--the Halloween decorations they put up are out of this world. We love and miss you all and hopefully you got T's present in the mail--oneday I will be a better Auntie.

Ellie and I are looking at the pictures of baby Ben and we love him and his oatmeal face--he is a beautiful baby. He looks like he needs a few more carbs--poor little kid
