summa

eleanor had a streak where she'd fall asleep every day

she's moved on to coloring her walls instead (pictures to follow)

 playing horsies

 i had a bit of a meltdown last week (on the verge of a panic attack)

thanks to girls camp

and maybe olive's birthday party and hazel's baptism coming up and being 6 months pregnant

with my sixth baby

but really girls camp

michael is sweet and took over the birthday and baptism responsibilities

and noah and the other kids couldn't handle seeing me cry (i NEVER do, especially in front of them)

they cleaned the house all morning so i wouldn't have to

and noah said things like, "maybe you could ask the bishop for a different job" and 

"you would do anything for us so we'll do anything for you. you should go rest"

sweetest kids ever 

between them, my sweet husband and my camp committee, things are getting taken care of

i'll be relieved when camp is over

 this kid made it all the way down the path 

while i was making a list of invites with olive for her birthday

he's pretty fast on his hippo

 the kids have been enjoying library movies in the afternoon while henry naps

occasionally he's awake to catch one

 i keep finding him playing in sinks

this time he said, "my hands is diddy"

 my bump and i took a bike ride visiting teaching

 once in a while henry lets me cuddle him and i love it

 i love them all lined up eating lunch

 we met friends at eagle island on monday

it was a lot of fun except henry had a near drowning experience 

and i had to run in after him

 i was so glad i was watching him and he was ok

we love this boy way too much to live life without him

 hazel was making eleanor her own book

it was very sweet

 these two went berry picking in our yard and then had a picnic under the plum tree

i'm so glad they're becoming better friends

 noah and hazel get invited for play dates and olive gets left out

so we had her friend rory over and they had a ton of fun together 

 twenty four weeks!

 eleanor's latest artwork

thank goodness for magic erasers..

 she's getting really good at writing "E" so that's something

now we'll have to teach her to use paper rather than the wall

 this girl is less than two weeks from turning SIX!

 busted playing in the sink again

this time he pretended he was just trying to brush his teeth :)

 bedtime cuddles with my two biggest kiddies

 waiting in line to do their bedtime pull ups

michael is up to twenty!
