Happenings here at Home...


On any given day we always have extra boys around. They just might be trying to find places to hide, but there are plenty of boys to play with.

Silly spaces our boys have found to play.

When the winter weather hit the kids had to organize (with Jared's help) our mud room. So out with the summer stuff and back to winter clothing...Oh the joys of an on going messy room!! :) Grateful to have a space to actually store it all so that's a bonus.

Our little boys wild head of hair! This was some great hair he woke up with one Saturday morning.

Jared got me in the picture...thanks hun. But then I realized WHO am I to make fun of him when my hair looks like that in the morning!!! I did just get back from a run, but either way we have some great hair at our house.

Seriously, how is that Mohawk possible? And those cheeks...Oh, I want to kiss him right now!!!

Seriously, it cracks me up!

Well, our little Ben is a full on walker...no more crawling. He's completely switched over. He walks. Hello Adulthood...Goodbye my baby! Sad.

One of his favorite spots to perch himself in the house. It's just his size and he has a great view of all his siblings running around like crazy people. Because THAT is what they do around here.

Sometimes they run around without shirts on too...Anyways, this was a darling moment to cherish...So LONG ago I had put these helpful little laundry tags on the different bins to organize laundry..darling idea I know. I thought just because they were there the kids would JUMP with excitement at the opportunity for sorting laundry. Well, the older kids are smart enough they have now memorized the slots. BUT today I actually SAW Caleb looking at them to match where his dirty shirt was supposed to go. This little moment warmed my heart so much I had to jump at the chance to get my camera, so I could cherish this moment FOREVER!!!

This was his genuine happy face when he found the match! Oh, I love this kid!!

Here he goes again...finding the orange spot. Oh, yeah for cute kid moments like this! They REALLY are learning a few things around here! Love it.

Back to cute Ben. He LOVES his newest winter hat. Jared's Grandma makes these darling hats and my kids have MORE than enough to enjoy all winter. So I'm getting Ben used to it early.

He LOVES being outside and he LOVES his car! As soon as his siblings open this back door he whimpers and cries until you let him out. It's really adorable that he has an opinion...

So cute and content being outside. Gotta love this 55 degree weather in November! Yeah, for some sunshine still!!!

My fat happy cold baby!

Ben is starting to look so much like a little boy. I cannot believe his hair! I think he has more than Mikey ever did!
