Fastest Baby Belly Whopper in the World

We got our first snow of the year!

So, in honor of the occasion, we'd like to show off our own little Frosty the Snow-woman in training:

Sarah Grace

to pick up where we left off . . .

Sarah Grace

born April 27th

Sweet Sleeper

Good Cuddler

Strong Muscles

Long, skinny feet

 Cute cuteness

We love having her here!

We're all adapting well and maintaining a relatively calm and peaceful home.  This is the view from the couch (where Mom and Sarah spend many hours) of the other 3 kids - Yes, Ellie is in there somewhere.

7:15 AM, and we just arrived at McKay Dee hospital.  When we arrived, they sent us to a room that had people in it already. She thought we were visiting. Victoria looks that good.

Charlie Says and Chloe's Text

Charlie asked me the other morning if I would put on a moody (movie) for him.  I said, "Oh, let's not watch a movie this morning, if we watch too many movies it's not good for our brains."  In retort, he loudly insisted, "But Mommy, I DON'T HAD A BRAIN!"  He followed me around reiterating that declaration throughout the morning.  Yeah, no movies were watched that day.

Today, feeling a little like the rest of us are feeling, Charlie said, "Mommy, in my ear, there is a stomach-ache."

Chloe loves to send texts to her Dad.  She sent this hopeful message the other day, leaving out a key word: party.

It's me daddy!  There is going to be a tomorrow! I can't wait!

Ellie's Concert: The Fairy and See the Rainbow

"She's a very great fairy, and almost everybody likes her."

The Fairy

This one has an unexpected lyric.

See the Rainbow

Chloe's First Piano Recital

We interrupt Ellie's Concert to bring you Chloe's First Piano Recital.  This, too, was last Spring, on May 3rd.  Please excuse our technical laziness.  I messed up the actual recording at the recital (you mean, you actually have to push the record button if you want it to record??)  So we had her do it again afterward.  That's why there is only one person applauding at the end.  Chloe's second recital is in a few weeks, but now, we bring you...

Ellie's Concert: Giant Robot
