Random Cuteness!

Love little nake-nake babies! Can't believe how fast he is growing!
Ok, so you can totally tell I am a girl, I set my boy down on doll bedding to take a photo or two. H was all about having his photo with Baby G too!
Then it was Miss P's turn. I love the tykes expressions, they sure love their baby brother!
Had to throw this one in cause I love seeing Miss P's hand touching the babe in the photo.
I sure heart my 3 chitlens!

A Few Quirks

TAGGED!!
By my sis-in-law Loni. So here it goes...
The rules are: List 6 quirks about yourself and then tag six people. Leave them a message on their blog letting them know they have been tagged.

1. I like to smell my skin. If you see me holding my forearm up by my face, I am smelling my skin. I will even smell Brandon's skin too.

2. I am all about biting my nails. I think my tykes have picked up this trait too, for sure H has!

3. My nose turns up at the end of it. When I was younger I used to always push my nose up at the end to make sure that it stayed turned up, like I had to help it stay that way!

4. I am one of those people that has to check their alarm clock like a billion times before going to sleep.

5. When I eat french fries from McDonald's I have to have their sweet-n-sour sauce to go with them.

6. For some reason, I don't have a problem cleaning my daughters room, but I have a hard time cleaning my sons room? Do you think it's cause I am a girl too?

I tag:

Welcome Back BBQ

The tykes school had their annual Welcome Back BBQ. Here is Miss P with the Christensen girls with their faces painted. Miss P is a cat.
Even Baby G came along to enjoy the fun of hamburgers, hot dogs, inflatables, playground, a live band, nice weather, and friends galore!
Dad and H rode their BMX bikes there and back. Too bad I didn't get a photo of them.
The PTO rocks this fun activity! We have enjoyed going for the past 3 years as a family!

'MEET ME IN THE STAIRWELL'

You say you will never forget where you were when
You heard the news On September 11, 2001.
Neither will I.

I was on the 110th floor in a smoke filled room
With a man who called his wife to say 'Good-Bye.' I
Held his fingers steady as he dialed. I gave him the
Peace to say, 'Honey, I am not going to make it, but it
Is OK..I am ready to go.'

I was with his wife when he called as she fed
Breakfast to their children. I held her up as she
Tried to understand his words and as she realized
He wasn 't coming home that night.

I was in the stairwell of the 23rd floor when a
Woman cried out to Me for help. 'I have been
Knocking on the door of your heart for 50 years!' I said.
'Of course I will show you the way home - only
Believe in Me now.'

I was at the base of the building with the Priest
Ministering to the injured and devastated souls.
I took him home to tend to his Flock in Heaven. He
Heard my voice and answered.

I was on all four of those planes, in every seat,
With every prayer. I was with the crew as they
Were overtaken. I was in the very hearts of the
Believers there, comforting and assuring them that their
Faith has saved them.

I was in Texas , Virginia , California , Michigan , Afghanistan ..
I was standing next to you when you heard the terrible news.
Did you sense Me?

I want you to know that I saw every face. I knew
Every name - though not all know Me. Some met Me
For the first time on the 86th floor.

Some sought Me with their last breath.
Some couldn't hear Me calling to them through the
Smoke and flames; 'Come to Me... This way... Take
My hand.' Some chose, for the final time, to ignore Me.
But, I was there.

I did not place you in the Tower that day. You
May not know why, but I do. However, if you were
There in that explosive moment in time, would you have
Reached for Me?

Sept. 11, 2001, was not the end of the journey
For you. But someday your journey will end. And I
Will be there for you as well. Seek Me now while I may
Be found. Then, at any moment, you know you are
'ready to go.'

I will be in the stairwell of your final moments.

God

Let the Games Begin!

The tykes started their first soccer season today. The only bummer part of it was that I didn't get to go! Baby G and I had a l-o-n-g night, so I needed some rest. Thanks to daddy for saving the day and taking the camera along with him for me.
Miss P showing her moves. SHe even got to be goalie for a while.
H and his fancy footwork.
Dad said the tykes loved it too! Hopefully I will be making it there next week!
You go H and Miss P!

Do your pets do this???

This is how I found Mudslide while I was getting the tykes breakfast. She did not move for a while either. So it turned into a great photo op for me!
Plus Mudslide has been into licking the bottom stair too??? Isn't that weird?

*So I want to know, does your pet do this?*

Labor Day Fun!

Daddy took the tykes rafting down the river today. We had the best weather for it too! Baby G and I held the fort down at home till be got the call to come pick them up at the bottom.
I just loved it when Brandon called me, they were still running the river and I could hear the tykes in the background just a giggling away! The sweet sound of their laughter brought a huge smile to my face! I am so grateful for them to have a fun dad to take them to do fun things!
Ok, who's that putting up the bunny ears??
