When you don’t know where to start…

Just start somewhere.  Right?

My Nathanael is almost one month old.  So much has happened,  so many dear loved ones have come and gone, so many wonderful memories worthy of recording have been made….

And I don’t know where to start!

So….  in no particular order of time or importance…..  my mom, Josh’s mom, and I decided we’d get the children all gussied up for a picture.  Well, it was my mother’s idea.  I told her I would rather be hung than try to get a picture of six children all at the same time.  She, however was undeterred.  While we certainly did NOT ever get that “perfect” studio picture, we had a lot of fun and a lot of laughs at this gang of goofballs.  I’ve been looking over them in somewhat of a daze.  Are they ALL mine? I think I might officially have a big family!

Nope.  Not perfect shots, but they’re just precious to me.

(Lauren’s knees were pulling Ashlynne’s hair down.  And, sigh, I haven’t yet learned how to crop my pictures, thus– the closet in the background.  Ok, Kevin, fix it up for me.  I still love it.)

(Too dark.  Poor Nathanael.  Ashlynne looks too grown up.)

Do you think Nate has cause to worry?  I mean, look at Caleb’s angelic face.

Little boy blue.  It may be temporary, But Nathanael’s eyes are very blue.  If they don’t turn, he will be my first blue-eyed child.

Mr.  Grumpy pants gets the award for most uncooperative.

Sepia, right?  Ok, here’s another since she likes to model:

Sweet, sweetheart.  Another one:

She likes to pose.

See?

Just call her “Hair.”  Check this one out:

So, I’ve started.  If I could just do one post a day, maybe I’ll catch up.  No promises, though.  I’m a wee bit busy lately.

Thanks for stopping by!
