The past few days...


Mr. Ben loves to climb. He's just like all my other boys. He's adventurous, he pushes the limits and he loves to climb.

Safe parenting...

He's messy. Really, really, messy! This is the multiple DAILY occurrence at our house. He insists on feeding himself. He won't sit in a high chair, he climbs right out. And everything ends up on the floor...
 

Caleb has either this face...

Good thing he has a cute face...

Or he has this face. He's a light switch. One second he's off then he turns himself back on.

He's trying to HELP clean up.

Caleb had his official first day of preschool. He loves it!

I can't believe how big he's getting.
 
 

Here are a few pictures from Grandma Suker's funeral. It was a perfect day. The funeral couldn't have been more personalized just for her. We actually had FUN. It was possible because she was so fun her self. It's been an amazing experience learning and growing from her. I still can't believe she is no longer with us.

Grandma Jaqcui (Jared's mom) is buried right by Grandma Suker. Caleb thought it was neat he saw her headstone right by Grandma Suker.
 
 

We sure love Grandma.

Caleb. This tired kid. This made for a very long day.

My four kids. Seriously, I love taking pictures of just me with them. It reminds me how tired I get. How I play chase all day long. How I clean up after them, how we manage to even smile. Being a mother is the most rewarding calling I've ever had. But paired with the rewards are the sacrifices. Being pregnant again, I'm remembering how many sacrifices it takes to bring these little ones into the world. I'm over the top thankful, but man alive I have to admit I dream about running again....

Our happy family
