I have so many little matters to tell you of, that I cannot wait any longer before I begin to put them down.

It’s so rare that all three girls wear pants on the same day, and today they happened to all choose brown. They insisted on having a photo shoot to commemorate it… And got silly. Janie can roll her tongue! Meanwhile, Tommy just sat above the fray. And news flash: after 23 months, with this post, […]

Jane-bug has been hanging out with us for 23 months! She said her first sentence this week that wasn’t just repeating one of us: “I poopy.” Yep. She’s still occasionally interested in the potty, but she hasn’t had success in quite a while, so I’m just concentrating my efforts on her older sister. Verbally, she’s […]

We’re having internet issues…but I will try to get Tommy’s birthday posts up this week! In the meantime, Jane-Bug is cutting four teeth and is miserable. Even holding her doesn’t always help. Poor Bug!

Janie has been getting into SO much trouble during schooltime lately! Tearing things apart, making messes, breaking things. Argh! This morning, she poured about half of the dishsoap all over my clean dishes in the drying rack. So I rinsed them all off again and let her go to town with an actual dirty bowl. […]
The girls turned the bunk bed into a motorhome this weekend. They and their dolls and I had a nice vacation trip!

Today the little girls wanted to do history with the big kids!

Poor Bugaboo has been so sick this weekend. She looks like death warmed over. Before she came down with this cold, though, she was delightfully spunky. She is saying so many words that I can’t keep track, echoing everything the big kids say: “Thank you,” “Daddy home,” “Jesus Amen.” Recently, when she wakes up, she […]

Yep, we didn’t get around to decorating ours until last night. It was a big hit, even if it was a month late!

Since we had to head over to Burbank yesterday to bring friends a meal, I figured we might as well make a field trip of it. Turns out the Autry Museum of the American West is free on the second Tuesday of every month! The kids liked it, though it was a quick hour-and-a-half. There’s […]
