Even The Little Things

Our family life is feeling like its old self again. For the past few weeks we have had some hiccups and it feels safe to say that they are subsiding.

It was hard to resist taking this picture of Adam as he cleaned the blinds and listened to his IPOD.

Today I was a 9X13 Pyrex dish queen of cooking. Annalyn came home declaring that it must be National Dessert Day! I told her no, the middle dish was Veggie Mac and Cheese-- which turned out really yummy.

Annalyn, Andrew, and Jonny spent hours wrestling and playing. It is safe to say that they will sleep well tonight.

William is trying really hard to make his reading goal this semester. His behavior for the last two weeks has improved tremendously, that he been able to stay up almost 45 minutes later than his usual bedtime.

Alex and Dennis were just too cute today. I love to watch them play like this.

I finally had to take the phone away when I realized that Dennis was actually calling people again. I wonder if they heard me hollering for the other kids to settle down in the background-- how embarrassing.
Dennis is talking up a storm, and is his own little person. He is always on the go--- quite literally.
Our kids enjoyed being around our friends' babies again. Even Adam couldn't resist holding them-- what a guy!

It is amazing how the smallest things can make me smile.

Great post! I love the picture of Dennis and Alex sitting side by side playing. (The one from the back) It's those kind of moments that make you melt and thank God that you have the privilege of being a mother.

You know we NEED!!! a video of Alex and Dennis talking and playing together. Nothing like the chatter of 2 little ones playing.

Peace
