I once was lost, but now I'm found...

Just a few pictures from the past week...

David and 18yr old kid sis, Natalie...from her visit last week! Thanks for coming, kids!
You make us old fogies feel .... older than you could imagine.




Levi is the little tike on the left side of the group...






Someone is making little binocular eyes at us when he should be playing soccer...


drinkin' my coffee...it keeps him going!





Levi and his good buddy, Stephanie...her big sister, Madison, is Melanie's BFF




Little red-nosed baby girl...after a week of 80 degree temps, that morning was quite chilly!! Notice her 0-6 month pacifier...



Thanks for coming to the game, Uncle Tom! (I think he took 80 pix between Levi and Mel's games)!!

This girl loves grass...doesn't mind the texture and rather liked the dandelions!!

this is my favorite picture from last weekend...possibly one of my all time faves! and they posed willingly!! classic...when they figured out why we were all laughing so hard, they were less than thrilled!! durh.



I know I've been MIA for a few days...but if you know us, you know that soccer takes up a good part of our time in the months of April and May.

Spring in Indiana...hmmm. a challenging thing! we go from 85 degrees (which I can honestly do without) to 45 degrees and a chilly rain today. ugh. it's hard to dress little people when the weather teases us like this! but I am NOT complaining. In fact, I am CHOOSING JOY! This is a nice little respite in the midst of the week...this li'l chill we are experiencing. It's all good!

Molly is into everything...so one of our projects this weekend, between games and stuff, was to brace our stairway...or as Stickers refers to it, "scarystairs". I will have to take some pix of our rigged up set-up as well as the porch as it stands right now...David picked out a cool blue stain...ages the boards nicely.

I have more pix to blog but I need to hit the hay...staying up until well past midnight is catching up with this ol' cat. So, hope you enjoy the pix, hope you are doing well and hope that you leave a comment. I live for your comments! You know that, right? ok, just checkin'. Be back later...love and peace!

yes, I know that feeling of soccer taking over one's life.

We're avoiding soccer at my house, so far. We do enough stuff. It's hard to know what to eliminate. Fortunately for me, the girls haven't known anyone who plays soccer until this last year. Even then, it was a younger boy cousin so it's not tempting. Yay me!

WOO HOO Soccer! Levi looks too cute! I can't wait to see one of his games. You'll have to let me know what the kids' schedules are. Okay, so sure you've been away for a couple of days, but would you please let your kids blog? :)xoxo B

The soccer pics are cute. I love that little baby with her cute paci! Send her over so I can kiss all over those cheeks and that little button nose! :)
Soccer for us is in the fall. I'll have two playing this year so it could be interesting.
