the time has come

Well I am officially a blogging slacker (what's new)! It has been over a month since my last post. We have had a busy few weeks around here and I am finally starting to catch my breath.

At the beginning of January we got to watch our darling little niece Eden for five days while her parents were in Equador. We loved having her and could not kiss her cheeks enough. My kids were sad to see her go (except Davie, I think he was glad to get his mom back).

I love having a reader in the house. Lily is so good about reading to the kids when they ask. Don't you love Gracie's outfit...

My friend Heather made this hat for Adam when we lived in Washington. Davie discovered it a few weeks ago and will not take it off. Seriously he wears it almost everyday all day, whether we are in or out. I think it is pretty cute!

Oh, how I love these kids! Don't they look like little heathens in their jammies and messy hair...

We celebrated Gracie's fourth birthday on the 3rd! She is so big now.

The Great Purge....I decided that my closet really needed some attention. As you can see below we have a very small closet so good organization is essential. I think between Scott and me we filled about five garbage bags full of clothes and shoes to donate. It felt so good to get rid of it all.

These boys are buddies! I love them...
