Here is Annie trying to brush her hair--she's never this happy when I have to do it,
though...
Annie finishing a bowl of yogurt...
I found Annie having a rare, quiet waking moment, just resting in Simon's chair while Aaron plays a video game.
This is another sweet captured moment of Annie & Simon playing together without fighting (and we are aware that we need to replace the baseboards, but the wheels of progress move slowly around here).
Simon & Annie are watching the tractor work going on in our backyard; we recently had our backyard terraced, now all that's left is planting grass seed, which will hopefully happen soon.
Every year in May, Elijah & the boys go on a weekend camping trip to Rockport Beach with a group of men & their sons, and this is the first year Simon was old enough to go (at age 4, he thinks he's a pretty big kid). Here he is the morning they left, with one of his favorite books.
the older boys...
The girls and I weren't too sad when they left, as we had plans to watch movies, make donuts, and Saturday afternoon we got babysitting for Annie and went to the Cinderella ballet, which was neat. Unfortunately, the father-daughter trip was canceled due to the fires :(.
