PICTURES, Kade, Easter, etc.
I was just telling Jenny that I wanted to see some more pictures of her new little Jasper as soon as she was up to it. I've been meaning to post more pictures of Kade but I sometimes feel like I don't even have time to shower or make my bed.
Ask me how I am doing with four little kids. No don't, I'll either scream or cry. Ask me another day!Here's our Little Man Kade.
First 7 weeks

EASTER
I was so excited to have a yard to hide eggs in this year and then it rained. Ah well, they had fun anyway. Lauren found The Big One, then later gave it to me and said, "That's how much I love you, Mom."
Lauren and Rissie liked finding, Anna liked eating and Kade got a bunch stuff that mostly just makes his first Easter official.
Where does it hurt?
3/14/05 Lauren's cough continues, and after her heartbreaking cries of, "I don't like my cough." I asked her where it hurt, thinking it could be either her throat or her chest. She said, "Right here." Then mouth wide open she pointed to her throat with her entire hand in her mouth and her finger at the back until she gagged.
2/19/08 This morning, we are eating breakfast when J interrupts the brief silence with a small basement burp. Without missing a beat, Lauren says, "What do you say, Daddy?" He excuses himself, then still in her motherly tone adds, "We don't fart at the table do we?"
Junk Food
9/16/08 Yesterday Lauren learned the difference between junk food and healthy food. So this morning, when she saw Rissie with a piece of candy, she said, "Mom, can I please have some junk food?"
2/9/08 Today Lauren asked me to redo her hair because it was "falling off!"
Cookie Dough
L: (in her sweetest voice) "Mom, can I have some cookie dough please?"
M: "Sure."
L: "Well," pause, "do you think you can get it from the fridge so I can like it?"
4/20/2008 So Lauren got some gum (not a fan) for being a good girl. Later, Jon asked her if she had swallowed it. She said, "No." Then he asked if she threw it away. She said, "No." So he asked her where it was, she told him it was in her throat.
L. and R. have been singing and dancing to their new piano that plays fun tunes. L. has been learning them and singing them around the house. A few days ago I overheard her sining, "Mary had a little sheep, little sheep, little sheep,...
Finding the Moon
Lauren shouts, "Grandma, there is the moon!" She started singing Twinkle Little Star, but in the mean time we had turned the corner and she soon discovered it was gone. So she tells Grandma, "We need to find another moon." 01/13/08
Kids are the best source of laughter
- I was getting dressed and L happened to be there and as I reached for my br_ she asked, "Mom, you put your b__bs on?"12/07
- R had gotten in trouble for something, then after some reflection L said matter of factly, "Well, she's learning."12/07
- L just told Jon to look at her stomach then lifted her arm, pulled down her sleeve, and showed him her armpit.12/07

Oh yea! I'm so glad you posted some more pictures! I'm just dying having you guys so far away! I can't believe how much he looks like the girls (with manly features of course), and I can't believe how much Anna has changed since you moved!!!
By the way, yes I remember that waterfall we went to with you guys. It was a beautiful hike! We'll have to do it again. :)
Great pictures! My friend down the street just had her forth baby and she said she has three goals for each day: to get a shower, get dinner made, and make her bed. It's tough--hang in there. Love you!
Can't imagine...seriously. And not interested in finding out any time soon! you'll be on #6 by the time I find out how 4 is! Could your kids look any more related??? Kade looks just like his sisters--not hard to tell who they belong to! Isn't it heavenly to have a little boy?
Thanks for sharing these pictures! The kids are beautiful and you look great too! I never looked that good after having a baby. Or seven weeks after having a baby! Lucky you!! You're doing just fine. You're in survival mode and thats good enough!! :) Take it easy and enjoy this!! :) It goes by fast.
4 is better than 0 :) I wish I was there to lend a hand. I love all the pictures. I hope your kids won't forget me.
