Playtime with the camera

What better day to play with the camera then Sunday. Our church isn't until 1 so Jaron broke out the camera and took some candid pics of the kids. I need to update our picture wall and I am so glad that he has the equipment to do it here at home. Unfortunatly, everytime we take pics of the kids, we think that maybe next time we will get a better photo, thus no updated photo wall!

Big Helpers

I have been dreading off track for a while now. Having two babies and the three older boys home 24/7 seemed like it would be quite overwhelming. Don't get me wrong we have had our share of fights, messes, yelling, etc. I have had to tell the kids to leave me alone for a bit here and there. All in all though it has been a real help to have the boys home. Tyson, Braden, and Nathan have all been willing to help out with the little ones. They all love to pick out their clothes and get them dressed. The other morning, Braden wanted to put Jess in a sundress. I didn't have the heart to tell him no, so we just put some leggins under it and called it good. It is cute to see what they dress them in. If I am busy I know that the boys will be spot on in helping entertain the babies if they get fussy. I know that the babes are going to miss them when they go back to school...hey so am I in some ways. They are also big helps when it comes to bath time, they even change a wet diaper here and there. I am so lucky to have such helpful boys that love their baby brother and sister.
