working hard

Little Miss. Paulina has been working hard these months and is getting so strong!  She is doing physical therapy, speech, and occupational therapy.  Her therapists are wonderful and she is learning so much.  It is so fun to watch her grow.

Sitting up tall-working her abs!  

a little random fall life

With Madeline in full time kindergarten I have a lot of time at home with Simeon, Paulina, & Anna.  They are a ton of crazy fun.  A big blessing to my days.

Anna is such a wonderful mess!  She is obsessed with bandaids and changing clothes. 

Simeon & Anna have such a sweet friendship developing.  He loves his sisters well! 

my three 5 year olds

Every year from September 30th to October 27th our 3 oldests will be the same age.  This year, it was 5.  They think it is so great that they are the same age and I don't mind it!  They make me happy so it works out well.

Clinton Library:: a {successful} family outing

One weekend in Little Rock we spur of the moment decided to attempt a family outing to the Clinton Library.  It was a bit of a giant gamble with our crew but we succeeded!  We walked all around the library and then over the walking bridge.  Got a fun little pic of our crew that got a little photobombed by a biker but we still like it.  

visiting with the sis

Between lots of kids and no extra bedrooms it is a bit of a challenge to get together with my sis and her family.  But we try hard and it is worth it!  My sweet nephews are so much fun and I love the crazy time we are all together.  

Our sweet babies.  Their little personalities are so fun to watch grow and blossom!

flower girl

Some of our dear friends asked Madeline to be a flower girl in their wedding and she was so happy!  She talked about it for months and was giddy when her dress came.  She practiced and planned and had so much fun the whole weekend.  She looked like such a beautiful big girl.

Thank you Sam & Tripp!!

birthday boy

My sweet Simeon just had his 5th birthday.  He is such a fun little man!  His excitement and laughter and joy are so genuine!  He has been riding at tiny little bike for way too long and never complained.  For his birthday, he got his dream bike!  A huge, no training wheels, kick stand, 20 inch bike!  He was beyond happy!  He has been racing that thing around our basketball court like crazy.  So very thankful for his life and that we are blessed to be a part of it.

He decided he wanted a Ninja birthday party.  So we invited 6 little boys to a park to have a ninja party which only included sticks and black bandanas.  However, it rained.  So the pack of boys invaded our house and had a blast!  They ran around all over the house and pretended to be ninjas.  Seriously, we planned nothing.  The idea of a theme was enough to get them going!  It was so fun to watch.  So thankful for his buddies!
