My dirty Laundry

I am going to spill all my dirty laundry. . . I mean I can't keep up with all my dirty laundry. We are a family of 5 with way too much dirty clothes. I am having a really hard time mastering the washing and putting away. The other day I had to look in 3 baskets to find a complete outfit. It is a chore that I absolutely dread, maybe because it is so thoughtless and non stimulating. I know someone has a great suggestion. Any ideas on how I can keep up on laundry and enjoy doing it?

Jacobs parents came for Christmas visit.

My mother and Jacobs mother. Grace is named after both of them.
My mother in law had a birthday party at our house. Lots of old friends came. Good time.
Isaac and Grandma blowing candles out.
The boys listening to grandpa playing guitar in the bathroom. I am not sure why the bathroom was involved, but still cute.

Glenn Beck comes to Indy


Glenn Beck came to Indianapolis for a book signing. Jacob was able to go and meet him. I was sooo jealous. We are his biggest fans. Jacob said he was really down to earth and cool. After the book signing he casually talked with people. He was talking about warning others about the "perfect storm". You would have to listen to him to know what I am talking about. Check him out sometime.

Life Aint Nothin But A Party

Grace playing with her brothers toys. She is teething, so lots of drool. She is generally a very happy baby. Can you believe she is going on 7 months?
Winter Wonderland at the Children's Museum. We had so much fun getting in the Christmas Spirit, seeing Santa, and sliding down the giant slide.
Isaac and Grace in my bed
Nathanael and Grace in my bed
My boys are best friends when they aren't driving each other crazy. I found them this way watching Saturday morning cartoons.

Motherhood

"There is no one perfect way to be a good mother. Each situation is unique. Each mother has different challenges, different skills and abilities, and certainly different children. The choice is different and unique for each mother and each family. Many are able to be 'full-time moms,' at least during the most formative years of their children's lives, and many others would like to be. Some may have to work part- or full-time; some may work at home; some may divide their lives into periods of home and family and work. What matters is that a mother loves her children deeply and, in keeping with the devotion she has for God and her husband, prioritizes them above all else."

Trip to Children's Museum


Indianapolis has the best Children's Museum! We were at the Comic Superheroe display.

Grace Learns to eat

This is the first time she ate rice cereal. She cried every time I took the spoon away.
She is learning how to keep some of it in her mouth.
