Stollers and kids to the beach in California in April of 2006. Looking back makes me get excited for our trip coming up to California. This picture was from Gavin's first time at the beach. This time he will get to play in the waves (if it is warm enough) with the rest of the big kids
I hope you have fun looking a just a few of the more than 200 posts I have done in the past year. Feel free to do some looking back of your own. And thanks for coming by to see what we are up to.
That's a Chief Example to Others. It is a pretty big deal. One kid from each class gets it once a month. It means that Jared's teacher thinks he is a great kid. Which we already knew but, it is nice when others notice and give them a piece of paper telling them so. Also, he got a free day a Classic Skating. Now he just wants to know when we can take him.
Only a year. But what a year it has been. This is Sabrina at 3 months, just last march. Now she is starting to talk, walking when she wants and already getting her big brothers and sister to do what she wants. I have said it before I NEVER imagined I would be a mom to FIVE kids but I just can't see a world without my Sabrina Rose in it.
This cute girl spent at least 2 hours just crying and screaming at me this morning. Also, I have changed her bed very night for the last 4 nights. I decided it had to be something more than her just growing those oh so painful molars. Glad I listened to that mommy intuition she has 2 ear infections AGAIN. It hasn't even been 40 days since the last ear infection so we get to straight to the stronger antibiotic. Hopefully this is not the beginning of a pattern.
Today is Uncle Korey's Day. I hope that he got to have some time off from work and had some extra special family time. We love you and the boys are looking forward to some time to maybe finally learn how to fish. I don't know if you would be willing to teach them but I know they would be will to learn. We hope all your birthday wishes come true.
So do you think that 1 is to young to be into an Ipod? Sabrina was hanging out with her favorite uncle and he knows how much she loves music. It just cracks me up that she already knows what to do with the headphones. Also, at one she already has better rhythm than her big brother Jared.
If you want to hear the audio on the video don't forget to pause the music down on the sidebar.
California dreaming. October 2005 playing at Bob and Cathy's pool. It is amazing how fast Jared has grown in the 3 and half years. My oldest is minutes away from being a teenager. The kids go off track in 2 week. I am really longing for some family time in the sun. Hoping that Jen will let us come hang out at her pool after her vacation.
It is hard to believe all that has happened since your last birthday. It is going to be hard to beat. But I hope that this year is a good. Wish we could all be there to celebrate. We love you. Have a great day.
Flashing back to Spring of 2006. We had cousins living with us and cousins in for a visit. Jillian was in heaven having MORE girls in the house than boys. She really wishes that everyone lived closer. Actually I think we are all ready for a trip to California. Miss you guys!!!
I'm not really beating up my brother. And so what if my hair looks like I stuck my finger in a light socket.
in his new bed. Gavin is back to his sleeping antics. That is his HEADBOARD at his feet and he is using his pillows as his blanket. Yep, one night he had surrounded himself with ALL of his friends. For what reason I am really unsure. My theory is that he doesn't like sleeping alone.
