12:00 am Bed Party

Now, let's remember our kids do not wake up in the night ever (unless they're sick). And they won't sleep with us either. Baylor never would even we asked! But they BOTH woke up on this Wednesday night at midnight. It's such a rare occurrence and they are both in such great moods that we're having a little bed party! Adeline thinks it's morning and keeps saying 'eat' and 'teeth' (because she's totally preoccupied this month with teeth brushing). I hope they go back to bed!

Little Santa

Baylor was so good with Adeline & Collin (the babies) this year at Christmas! He passed out all the presents to be opened and helped out all day!

Oh the shoes!

Or shoooooos, as Adeline would say. She insists on wearing whatever shoes she sees right now!

Blessed Life

I was telling Perky the other night that with all the stories of dismay we hear (sick friends, troubled children, broken marriages), I feel a little guilty for feeling so blessed. Of course, I think we're in the decade of our lives that tend to be the happiest for everyone I know. That time when you're still newly married and your children are small and everything is bliss. My kids are funny and wonderful, we get to travel, we're secure in our jobs, and Adam & I love each otherly greatly still. And furthermore, love being around each other. I know our time will come. There will be troubles. But for now, I have no complaints. So, although I wish I could freeze time today, I pray, instead, that we can take the troubles that come with this feeling in our hearts.
