| I'm upside down in blogging.....meaning WAY behind.
Not sure if I'll ever have the time to get right side up.
Might just have to give it up....or do some crazy thing and post a pic a day or something.
Life is never dull around here, as you can tell in the pics above
And Ashlyn seems to fit right in w.all the craziness! It's all worth being way behind in blogging.
Blogging is over-rated.
Motherhood can NOT be traded!
(LOL! What a random rhyme, I crack myself up!)

| We've had a busy month with 4 days down at the coast a few weeks ago, soccer games on the weekends, and school & other activities during the week. I wish life would just slow down and I had time to document more of what we've been doing. With being the mom AND teacher, I try to take moments to have fun with the kids in between all that we've been doing. It's during those times that I usually don't even have my camera, or remember all that was done, laughed about, or whatever.....just treasured memories. And I think my memory fades by the day. And my energy too.
The other evening, I had some fun out on the trampoline with the boys. I LOVE those moments, and wish they'd last forever.....even if they do wear me out!
Annual Pumpkin Picture
Such sweeties.....honestly, these two are my quietest & least demanding. And it's precious to watch them interact.
Pumpkin painting....a great afternoon project!
Ashlyn will be 6 months old this weekend, which I can hardly believe. Just tonight, she had her first bite of something other than mommy's milk.....some rice cereal. She scarfed it down........with the other 4 kids watching her and laughing at her the whole time. (seriously, now that would have been a picture, but I didn't even get it on video. ) In between bites she'd just smile! How is my baby girl growing up this fast? Half a year already??
Baby surrounded by pumpkins....she was quite fascinated with them.

Today, I was in the car with just my youngest two. It was SO quiet. Although Chandler does talk a bit more when the older 3 aren't there. We drove over a low water crossing and there was actually water in the creek (usually there is not).
I hear him from the back seat say "Hmmm."
Then he says to me "Mom, what does hmmm mean?"
I had to think....and so I responded with "Well, it means you are thinking about something.....and so you say hmmm."
He says "Thinking about what?"
"Anything that you see, I guess" I told him.
He says "So, when I'm thinking about water in that creek, I can say hmm?"
"Sure, buddy." I replied.
For the next few minutes in the car I kept hearing "Hmmm" every so often.
Guess he was thinking a lot! 
I need to record more of these funny conversations with my ever-learning & growing 4 year old! |
