Jungle Jill

Stretching out in her little jungle

Baby Blue

Her eyes are still blue! Seth thinks they should stay that way since the rest of our children have brown eyes like their mama. We'll see who's side she's on. Hee!

The Wonder Window

This is a daily occurrence at our house - sitting at the window, wondering who is coming down the driveway or when Papa will come home from work. I think such poses make our window a true picture window;)

Mama Makayla

Makayla apologized to Kevin this morning. "Kevin, I'm sorry you wanted a boy and she was a girl." Kevin assured her that he likes Natalie a lot! Makayla has her own real live doll;)

Month Mono(1)



Can she really be a month old already?! She gives us dreamy smiles now!

Cream & Cleaner


Some happy endeavors as of late - homemade butter, and homemade citrus cleaner. The butter doesn't end up being more economical than what you pay at the store considering cream isn't cheap, but I'm routing that we get a milk cow! It sure tastes good though! The citrus cleaner is a score. Not only does it save money, but I know what I am spraying on my counters is healthy. It's not good for deep-cleaning unless you really enjoy using a lot of oomph when you scrub, but it works great for general cleaning. I like it for when the kids finish school on our kitchen table and there are pencil and crayon and... all kinds of marks on the table. Kevin uses it too when I have him clean the upstairs bathroom. Really liking this stuff!

Sweet Snapshots








Pictures just don't do her justice. She makes me melt!

Pink Pieces


Little pink feet! It has been so fun to see tiny pink girly accessories here and there.

Boys Being Boys







Great Grandpa's NSP hard hat gets a large amount of attention from Brennan. Slightly big, but that seems to be the fun of it;o) Kevin, on the other hand, seems to think that he looks rather intelligent with an envelope as a hat. Oh dear!

Lots of Love

We are all enjoying Natalie so much! She will not lack for attention.

Bathtime Bundle



There is nothing quite so snuggly as a freshly bathed baby girl! Makayla assured me that Natalie needed a pink bow;o) Girl after my own heart!
