6 boys & 1 girl

This past week my sisters and I have gotten together for such a fun little sisters week! We've had a blast with all these little kiddos running around keeping eachother entertained! Grandma and Grandpa have joined us too! It's been a full house in Texas!


Here's a few pics for my hubby who I know is missing this little man terribly :)
