Pretty typical...

Tebow time!

Can't not love him.

Another link from Craig...

A minute with Tebow

biggie is 6!

A sweet birthday- fun celebrations with our family ~and friends, such a gift!






6 things I'm grateful for about our 6 year old:

- his contagious laugh, not being afraid to let it go, and the things he loses it over...:)
- the way he lets his little brother beat him, and the way he encourages him to obey through races
- the way little one year olds stop crying when hudson talks to them
- his ability to work on something over and over and over (especially if it involves a ball)
- being our little sports buddy
- hearing more of his heart in his prayers lately

the latest

Huddy on spelling "We":

H helped Grace the other day- when she asked, "How do you spell we?" He responded, "W-i-i", I cracked up in the kitchen. Gracie was trying to write on our little board- "We did not do computer games." I usually write a list of our schedule on the board "Story, Math, Writing, Piano, chores..." When they've completed all of it, they get to play a computer game.


Grace on the "Lambeau Leap":

Oh that's nice, they hug each other because they're happy. (Love my sportsy girl!)

Tito's current way of transporting anything to someone else: (a punt, or drop kick)

weekend downstate






Had a sweet time in Taylorville last weekend-

pumpkin patch, great-grandparents, papa, mimi, awana, illini fun, brunch by momo and michael & emily's wedding!

thankful for these things- and nice, warm! weather- for a van we can drive (and haven't destroyed), for improved potty success for T, for these leaves, for a bit more energy, for dear friends from college who we hadn't seen in years...

little rascal




TT is our little rascal. He does all kinds of things his big bro and sis never did. Like yesterday morning, he woke up- said hi- went straight to the kitchen, opened the fridge, pulled out the chocolate syrup- hid in between the wall and the fridge and started helping himself. Aunt Lindsay went around the corner and started laughing. We went to see what was happening. Craig asked Tito what he was doing and his answer was, "Choc-o-late" :)
