lots of randomness

We haven't had too much going on the last week or two, but In an effort to keep family members far away updated.... here's some of what we've been doing.

My nephew, Kael, was blessed a couple of weeks ago. All the grandkids happened to be wearing pink and green, so of course we took a picture. Adam, Emma, and Hailey were not happy, Luke, Abigail, Beau, and Kael were bored with all the picture taking, but Carly was looking and smiling for the camera. One out of 8 isn't too bad, right?

I thought maybe we'd get a family picture to hang on the wall. It wasn't bad, but I really think I'm just going to have to shell out the money and get a professional one done soon.

Sometimes Abigail loves barbies, sometimes it's babies. Never both at the same time. Lately it's been back to babies. She wanted her picture with Heart (definitely not the name I would have picked, but Ben said I need to let the girls name their own baby dolls) in front of the flowers

I walked into Carly's room, and Abigail was sitting in bed snuggling her baby in her p.j.'s. I think she was a little embarrassed, but I finally got it out of her that she was a new momma in the hospital with her new born baby. She will be the best little momma some day.

Carly doesn't dress up in princess dresses very often, but she does love random outfits. This one made me laugh, because If you've seen Arrested Development, you'll agree that she dressed like Mr. F.

Carly loves taking pictures. We have lots like this.

I can't even begin to tell you how much Luke likes Star Wars. So I'll let the pictures do the talkin. His friend across the street also loves Star Wars. These two can usually be found walking around the neighborhood like this.

His Favorite thing in the world is playing with his Star Wars legos. He already has a list of more S W legos that he wants from Santa.

This girl is so happy! This is definitely one of her favorite places to sit. I never let Luke and Abigail sit here when they were babies, but by Carly I didn't care anymore.

Hailey takes good care of babies. She especially likes the ones that Carly and Abigail happen to have at the moment.
