    Future Mommy

    I just had to share this photo of Indigo hugging her baby doll. She’s at that stage where she’s really sweet with them. She’ll love on them one moment and throw them across the room the next moment. It’s a good thing she still has lots of time to practice before she’s a mom!  …

  • My Labor Day Really Was…

    My Labor Day Really Was…

    … a day of labor! I woke up this morning disgusted with the cleanliness of my house. I am a very organized person and I HATE clutter. I simply have too many children to have too many things. So I spend the majority of my cleaning time organizing and putting things away. (And throwing out…

  • Jade

    Jade

    Just had to share a Jade photo. She’s growing up so fast!    

  • Plums…

    Plums…

    The other week we got 9 cases of plums from Mr. McCrary. (Yes, 9 cases). I didn’t have time to put them up, so I gave them all away… (happy sigh). But then, I got another 3 cases, and I figured God was trying to tell me something. So, even though it has been crazy…

  • New Piles to Move

    New Piles to Move

    Remember our monster dirt pile that I made the boys move? Well, since they finished it, there hasn’t been a huge pile for them to move… until NOW! We now have a source of free mulch! Do you know how exciting that is? Do you know what that means? It means that when the boys…

  • Video Games

    Video Games

    We don’t own any video games. Nor do we intend to. There is simply too much work to be done around here to have the children get involved with them. Which is why it is very pathetic that I have found this: 78 words Speed test I wouldn’t say I’m quite “addicted” to it, but…

  • Hewitt

    Hewitt

    Just wanted to let you know that Hewitt is doing great! Since I took him off dairy he is much happier and healthier. He’s really good about policing himself too. When we went to the zoo, we stopped at McDonalds. I ordered him a double cheeseburger with no cheese (I know – then it’s not…

  • Don’t Hurt My Mama!

    Two nights ago, I had a very bad headache. I was lying on my stomach and I asked Cole to rub my shoulders. Emery came over to help as well. I told him to pound on my neck as it was very tense. They were hard at work and it felt wonderful! A few minutes…

  • Sweet Surprises

    Sweet Surprises

    The children have not been on their best behavior over the past week or so. OK, that’s putting it too kindly. They’ve been maniacs. For example – we went apple picking the other evening. The boys were told to bring all the apples into the house so we could sort them and store them. After…

  • The Louisville Zoo

    The Louisville Zoo

    Normally Fridays are a day of relaxation around here. Jim works four days a week and then spends Friday recovering. But he really surprised me by announcing Friday morning that he wanted to go to the zoo. The zoo? Really? But it’s HOT outside! And we have air conditioning in the house. And it’s HOT…

  • Our Little Princess

    Our Little Princess

    There is no question that the whole house treats Indigo like a little princess. After 5 boys in a row, her arrival was welcomed by all. I’m trying very hard to make sure that she doesn’t end up like a spoiled, rotten princess. So far, so good. The children decided today that Princess Bean (her…

  • This is Going to be a Tough Day…

    This is Going to be a Tough Day…

    Why??? Because I was stupid. It’s as simple as that. You see, I had this wonderful, surprise present yesterday. A friend of mine came over and cleaned my house for me! Isn’t that awesome? She and her sister-in-law scrubbed the kitchen and dining room floors, scrubbed down the tables and chairs, and washed walls! What…

  • A Fun Friday

    A Fun Friday

    Jim doesn’t work on Fridays. Usually he spends the day at home physically recovering from a tough work week. However, he declared this past Friday, “Soap Marketing Day.” So…. We spent the day driving around selling soap. It was quite a successful day, too! 😀 At one of the stops we let the children out…

  • Nail Polish

    Nail Polish

    I’ve never been addicted to nail polish. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s because when I was a kid I stole a bottle of nail polish. I didn’t get caught. But I felt SO GUILTY I went and confessed to my mom. She made me bring it back to the store and apologize to the…

  • Emery Land

    Emery Land

    Emery adores flowers. He always has. He’s always begging our neighbors for some of their abundant flowers. This year we gave him a plot of ground. He turned it into his own flower garden. He’s doing a beautiful job with it. Somewhere he got some wildflower seeds. Here he is surrounded by them. He also…
