Sundays at Home

On any particular day, you will find Emily taking all the movies off the shelves and connecting each box very carefully to make a bridge. Dancing Queen....Emily didn't want to wear this cute dress until Annie showed her how to spin and the dress flies out. Now it is one of her favorites!
Ben likes to wander around the room while he is talking on the phone. It makes one very dizzy to watch!
Tickling games happen if Dad is home more than a few minutes. As soon as one person starts laughing, the rest of the kids run in to see what made them laugh.
They made up this hopping game using Andy's shoes. Annie won every single time; she is FAST!
Emily is so sad because there are only two shoes, so she didn't get to play.
We always start Family Home Evening with announcements. If you want to make one, you raise your hand and Dad will call on you. Emily always raises her hand and says something about how she loves Mom, Dad, Ben, and Annie. Super cute!
Two very tired girls...
They couldn't make it up the stairs, so Dad helped them!
Ben got to stay up a few minutes later than the girls this night. We were watching Life. I love hippos...sigh...

Sleep, Sleep, and More Sleep

I am so tired...all of the time. It's really kind of getting old. I haven't stayed up late to finish a book in over two months!! My husband is astounded. I even left the tv and went to bed with one quarter left in the 6th Mavs/Spurs game because I was so tired I couldn't keep my eyes open anymore. My children have really enjoyed tv and watched a lot of new shows because Mommy needs her nap each day. Why? Because growing a 4th baby is an exhausting job!!! 6 more months, then the real work begins...
