"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will -- to your surprise -- miss them profoundly."

--Thomas S. Monson, 2009

Thank Goodness Its Friday

I am also thankful that:
1. Chloe was so great at the dentist today.
2. None of the girls have any cavities.
3. My wonderful mom rescued us earlier this week when we had no keys for our van or house.
4. Olivia was able to get immunized and it all went well.
5. My sore throat is going away.

Don't you just love the suit?

And don't you think Chloe looks just like him???? This is totally where Chloe gets her looks from.


Here's another cute one of Ben. I have no idea how old he is here, I am geussing 18 mos?




Here are a few of me back in the day:

This one is of me and my sisters and our neighbour. I am the baby on my sister's lap. I don't know how old I am but I am geussing 6 months:

And the back of these ones say 5 months:



I think I looked like our girls when they were all babies. Well, atleast the chubby cheeks are the same.

Here are some of our girls when they were all about 4-8 months old. There are so many similarities! It is so funny becuase I don't think they look anything alike today.

Here's Chloe
Isabelle



Lily


Olivia
I love them all! I am so thankful and happy they are ours!

Guess What I Am

This is a favorite game in our household...



Octopus Lily


Doctor Chloe

And how appropriate, baby Olivia..

She doesn't look too impressed! She'd rather eat it anyway...
The monkey is Lily's favorite....(also very fitting)



Chloe calls this one a "basketball monkey"...



I get in on the action too...Lily took this one!

Gotta love these two!
