A BALM TO MY SOUL.....

NEW PICTURES OF SHAWN!!!!!! HE COULD NOT GET CUTER!!!! BUT HE IS GETTING SOOOO BIG!!

WHICH MAKES ME SO SAD.......... TO QUOTE MY 8 YEAR OLD JOSEPH......

"LET"S JUST GET ON A PLANE THIS MORNING AND GO GET HIM!!! ENOUGH WAITING!!"



I couldn't agree more, sweet boy! We are going as fast as we can!! We also got an update of his measurements...and he IS big!


40 pounds

41 inches!!! WOW! He is just a tad shorter (10 months younger) than my Charlie--who is big for his age! Go Shawn!!


Looks like even though Hope is a year older--she will still be his "little" sister! :-)



Feeling so happy....and anxious this morning!! Say a prayer for fast paperwork!!

Sunday Snapshot!


It was a very peaceful Sunday at our house...












sun was shining, sidewalk chalk was inspiring..










Until...Dad came out to play.....








and decided to try out the flying turtle going down our veeerrry steep driveway...







see that speck at the end...yeah..that's him....as the kids look on in shock.....







and he decides the street would be fun too.....






Hope isn't fazed--she is still admiring her artwork....








and Joseph his....





but Caroline...my sweet, quiet, Caroline, was ALL over it!!





Look at that line-up...(I was seeing the ER in our near future at this point....)




and awayyyyy they go...







Now everyone is ready for the challenge.....









yes, they are smiling here......but bandaids are in Charlie's very near future....








the dogs are in agreement....we live in a nut-house!



on to Basketball....








and a quick stop at the drive-through.....







and some hula hooping, b-ball and drive through all at the same time.....










and to top things off....some baseball practice......









and who ever said that there are only SIX kids living in my house???




Gotta love that little boy inside that hubby of mine!!




There you have it---a snapshot of our Sunday....a bit crazy for most...but a perfect day for us!!




Hope you all had a great day!!
