Random Stuff

I feel like I fell of the blogosphere for a week. It was probably a good thing given all of the other things that got done. But it means I have a bunch of pictures that I want to keep here to remember and they don't really go together. It's okay though, they will always go together in my mind.

Ty LOVES the freedom of being able to play in the backyard. Often while his brothers and sisters are watching a TV show after school, he will quietly disappear (after asking mom, but without alerting his siblings) into the backyard to do what he was never able to do before: play whatever sounds fun in the moment. He is blowing and catching bubbles in this picture. So simple and sweet.

Ty was down and out with strep throat. Joseph, the cat, decided to take advantage of a warm place to lay. Then Jacob decided this was a snuggle opportunity. 

Ty still loves Bella. She makes a good back rest.

Ty made this picture for me. It is still on the fridge. We all thought it was cute that he drew me in a skirt (something he only sees me in once a week for church). I love that he can write all of our names independently.

These kids are all so dang sweet. Yes, they fight and bicker like siblings should. But when they are sweet, they are so sweet. I'm so glad they have each other.
