We LOVE getting out of the house, even if it means we re bundled up so much we can harly move!
We got rocking chairs for Christmas from Grandma Tate. We love them!
Mommy reads us stories and we love it so much. Of course Eden wants to turn ahead to the next page, or back to the other page, or look at the cover, or...
This is from our birthday. It was on November 5, 2009 and we turned one. We loved the cake and balloons. Bella was a little leery of having so many people over, but Eden loved it! The award for the messiest eater goes to Hannah, and the tidiest eater...Bella!
Time is flying. It just is. These girls are growing up so fast and even though it's wearing me out I can't believe how fast it's going. They now give each other luvs and kisses and clock each
other on the head with cups, or toothbrushes, or whatever they have in their hands. They also climb up onto my desk and throw everything off, but I'll survive it.
I'm exhausted much of the time. The days are long and often I find myself counting down the minutes until naptime or bedtime. There is laundry everywhere--some clean, some dirty, some in the washer, some in the dryer. There are toys everywhere and the kids rooms are disaster areas. The sink is full of dirty dishes and the dishwasher needs to be emptied to make room for the next load. Vacuuming needs to be done. There are beads in the carpet from the necklace my girls broke today. I need to organize my back patio. I need to wipe the fingerprints off the TV. I need sleep--my eyelids are droopy.
I still consider myself the luckiest mom. I wouldn't trade these precious children (all 7 are precious to me) for anything.
