Where did the week go?!

After having the flu for two weeks, we were all so excited to be well again that the week was full of activities, play dates, and fun! I don't know where the time went, but suddenly it was the weekend again!! I sure am thankful that God has blessed us with these precious, active, and sweet kiddos. I'm thankful that they love to play with each other (they call each other their best friends), that Grafton is such a good big sister and teaches James so much, that James is so good at sharing (he ALWAYS gives Grafton his suckers which is a very big deal in her book), and that the big kids shower their baby sister with a crazy amount of hugs and kisses and songs and toys. These are such fun ages....definitely hard and tiring at times....but I'm really enjoying every minute of it and can see God's blessings so clearly in each day.

Oh how we love the playroom!

 Playing play-doh with my big girl while the babies are sleeping. I love having special time with Grafton although we don't get it too often. She is so creative and smart and funny. On this day she made me a play-doh birthday cake, sang to me, and had me blow out my play-doh candle. I love her.

 Friday night movie night in the bunk beds! They were watching the Disney movie Up and LOVED it. Grafton sleeps on James's top bunk now while he sleeps on the bottom. Each night Grafton says "I really need to sleep in my own bed one of these days I guess...." but she has so much fun sleeping in the room with James!  I think it is really sweet that they want to be together all the time, and I figure this will only last so long so why not let them sleep in the same room for now!  Fun memories being made.

 Pancakes with Daddy! The kids always ask him to make airplanes and trains, but this time they also added a helicopter, ambulance, and racecar. I don't know how he does it, but Eric actually can somehow make pancakes that resemble those things!! A man of many talents I guess! We are so blessed to have such a good Daddy and hubby!

 "Mommy! Take a picture of her laying on me!!!" Grafton and James both LOVE having Price lay on their tummies.  It is quite funny- they take turns over and over having her lay on them! Of course she loves the attention and usually sits up laughing at them! Silly kids!

 Found this one from last week on my camera and had to post it. They are so fun!

 Another from the park last weekend- sweet sisters!

 Just so happy

 How awesome does DeeDee look?! Everyone keeps telling her that she is going to blow away one of these days! We are too blessed to have her just 15 minutes down the road, and the kids can't get enough of her.  We are all very thankful for DeeDee time each week!
