  • Wrestling Mania

    Wrestling Mania

    It’s that time of year again… wrestling season is here. My boys are good wrestlers. I think it’s because they’re genetically wired for it. And fortunately for us, it’s one of the few sports where being short, can be beneficial. LOL With all the hard work they do around the homestead, they’re really strong for…

  • We’re Home!

    We’re Home!

    We’re back from our awesome Disney Vacation. I’ll post photos later, but wanted to list our favorite moments while it was still fresh. Fletcher: Test track in the dark Indigo: Seeing Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse and all them Hewitt: Cars! Fletcher: The Lion King Show Colter: Summit Plummet at Blizzard Beach Brett: Blizzard Beach…

  • Pants Trouble

    Pants Trouble

    One of the children has a little bit of trouble putting his pants on correctly. In this case he also forgot to put on underwear. I won’t mention the culprit by name, but I will admit that it wasn’t Cole, Emery, Fletcher or Greyden I also won’t post the picture of when he reached across…

  • One Slushy, Eight Children

    One Slushy, Eight Children

    How do you share a single slushy amongst these eight children? Like this (note the anticipation and finger sucking going on):   Unfortunately, it’s hard to get all 8 heads on the eight straws at the same time. This was about the best we could do: They still enjoyed it!    

  • Fun at the Harvest Party

    Fun at the Harvest Party

    Since I am traveling and am on super fast internet, I thought I’d upload a bunch of pictures from a recent harvest party. Me and Indigo: Brett and Emery and friends on a hayride: Fletcher with a gun (aren’t guns essential hayride equipment?) on the hayride: Jim, Hewitt, and Me on another hayride (do you…

  • So Why Does it Look So Bad?

    So Why Does it Look So Bad?

      So, what I want to know is, since my children love to clean the floor, why does it always look so horrid?    

  • But You Said…

    But You Said…

    Hewitt has been having difficulty getting dressed lately. Most of the time he would prefer to spend the entire day in his pajamas. He already ripped a thousand holes in his Pirates pajamas by running around outside in them. So this morning, when he got dressed in pajamas again, I told him, “Hewitt, go and…

  • What an Imp!

    What an Imp!

    Hewitt is pretty tough for a four year old – not surprising since he has four older brothers. He’s also rather physical. He’s always tackling somebody. His current pattern is to charge any adult male (he doesn’t do it with the women) straight on – aiming with his head. Of course, if you’re an adult…

  • Huh?!

    Huh?!

    The children play outside a lot. For the most part they play really well together. The other day I went outside to check on them and discovered this: Yes, that’s Indigo inside a rabbit cage (no there’s no rabbit in there). Now, I must clarify. When I went outside, what I initially found was Hewitt,…

  • Self Serve

    Self Serve

    I was lying on my floor resting when Hewitt came in wanting to know if he and Indigo could have some peanut butter and jelly. I told him, “Sure.” A while later I was walking through the kitchen and discovered this: Further investigation found jelly all over Hewitt, Indigo, AND Jade. I had thought Hewitt…

  • 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…

  • Unisex Bathrooms

    Unisex Bathrooms

    We were at a pig roast at our neighbor’s house yesterday. They have 3 girls. The girls’ bathroom has a white floor, lavender walls, and a bright pink shower curtain. When Hewitt asked if he could go to the bathroom, I took him in there. He took one look around, looked at me and said,…

  • Dairy Dilemma

    Dairy Dilemma

    Some of you may remember when Hewitt was hospitalized last year for double pneumonia. Ever since then I’ve had my doubts about whether or not he was going to deal with asthma. But to be honest, I wasn’t quite prepared to deal with it quite yet. I kinda felt like Scarlett O’Hara – “I’ll think…

  • The Royal Family

    The Royal Family

    My children have very active imaginations. This is a photo of the royal family wearing their capes and sitting on their throne – King Greyden and Queen Bean flanked by Prince Hewitt and Prince Fletcher. They entertained themselves for hours.    

  • When The Cousins Come Visiting

    When The Cousins Come Visiting

    My brother, Adam, and his family came for a short visit on their move from Arkansas to New Jersey. We had a great time visiting and getting to meet my newest nephew – Aiden James. I wish I had taken more pictures, but alas… I didn’t. But Brett remembered to grab the camera to capture…
