No way to know how many times Julia rode this horse, but it was a lot! (And there was a "field trip" there- don't get me onto my field trip soapbox and how I don't think they are helpful usually b/c the kids are usually BUCK WILD and crazy). Anyway- the kids kept coming up to Sissy and saying "give me your coins". And Sissy would. She asked me first if she could- and I was so torn. Yes, I want her to learn to be generous of spirit and possessions, but also- they had used up their coins and she had not and I wanted her to enjoy herself. So I went to the moochers instead of Sissy and said, "please quit asking her for coins." :)
Tucker's at an age where he's pretty independent here-
And since I'd like to throw these away- I'll post them for posterity-
I LOVE this pic- it is what I see everyday- laughing Sissybug-
Charlie continues to be the sweetest baby- we find him in his little front room after breakfast playing some tunes-
"Oh, hi Mommy! I didn't hear you come in!"
"Maybe I should crawl over and give you my sweety smile..."
"Now I'm distracted again...I can make my self sit up all by myself and play with a toy-"
We caught Tucker giving HIMSElF reading lessons yesterday morning...he got the book out by himself and was working on the next lesson!
Tried to get kids to pose for pics this morning- to get them all to be still is impossible, but here's what we got!
Marc is tickling Charlie's thigh to make him laugh-
He had his first backpack ride today (and I know it won't be his last- all our babies love this thing!
Daddy pulled Tuck and Sissy around the driveway with Charlie on his back a million times, reminding me of my slogan, "real men haul kids."

Love these pictures and update. Charlie is just growing too fast! Thank you for the picture of his chubby hamhock. LOVE IT! Sweet Sissy, she wants to make everyone happy...I'm glad you had her back.
Tuck Tuck loves his reading lessons, he may be the earliest. But, he has Marky and Sissy to stoke his desire. Sweet big brother and sister.
