Busy Days

These last few weeks have definitely been busy, and I can't imagine that they're going to be slowing down anytime soon! I'm learning that 4 kids ages 5 and under are a lot of work... fun work though (most of the time!). I managed (with the Lord's gracious help!) to get some "group" pictures of the girls when Rachel was only 4 days old...
















Daniel likes to call these little "tic-tac-toes"




These following four pictures are something we see a lot of around here lately:







At home happenings:
Rachel helping with the laundry


Sleeping peacefully

I found Rachel like this after Lillian had stopped by to "swaddle" her.


Abigail's convert


16 days old

Cross-eyed but cute





The Polk County Fair
Looking at the baby goat


Rebecca's comment about the chickens, "Too noisy!"


Abigail wouldn't pet the horse but she rode him with no problem! This was her first time ever on a horse. Way to go Abigail!


This is Lillian's second year riding a horse at the fair... what a pro!


See ya next time partner!
