Di growing

What can I say? Isn't she cute!?! She's fitting in nicelly with the family, from sisters too much love, to grandpa's comfy arms.

Adventures

Hubbard park in Meriden


Castle Craig

New Little One

Here she is! When she wakes up, and stretches, and opens those little eyes, I say "Good morning Little One!" She loves it when I gently rub her dark hair, and I love when she turns her head towards me. She already knows my voice, my smell, my touch, and it's amazing!

Easter Times

I truly have a blessed life.
Easter was a day of excitement, that was well balanced between Easter bunny surprises, new dresses and hats, and by remembering the true meaning of Easter. The night before, I read the New Testament Stories version to the girls, so it was still fresh in our minds on Sunday.



Oh, and I love it when I find great deals on clearance clothes! Especially when my hands are too swollen to sew.

More hair change

Changes in hair have been happening around here. I've taken an interest in the girls hair. Getting four little, active girls' hair brushed everyday is a struggle, but also fun.




My new hair; easier to take care of. I like that. Simple.


Just a little side pony can make a big difference in being able to see for basketball! D loves it playing, just look at that face!

Nice hair

J did it! She wanted to donate her hair, and now was the time!

I love it, not only because she looks SO CUTE, but it's much, much easier to brush out the knots!

I want to be nice

I ran to answer the phone this afternoon and my 3-year-old who was happily playing, immediately went into one of her screaming temper-tantrums. I was upset because I couldn't hear my husband on the phone and she kept following me around. After a quick, "I can't hear you, I'll have to call you back in a bit", I placed her on her bed until she calmed down and could talk to me. I asked what was wrong, and she said "I wanted to get the phone!" I told her, I'm sorry, you know only Mommy and Daddy answer the phone. She said "No! I wanted to get it and give it to you!"
We've had many of these type of conversations in the past few months, and she summed it up best of all when she told me, "I just want to be nice!"

I'm grateful for a great kid!
