Just For You Gama!

Grandma, here is your little Annie walking.

Please ignore the piles, I mean mountains, of clean laundry. That was my chore for tonight that is obviously not getting done because I am blogging instead.  

Framing Those Beautiful Faces

For Christmas I asked for frames. We get professional pictures every 6 months and I have never printed off or framed any of them. Partly because of the cost. Frames are so expensive. My parents got us frames. Hooray! My brother made them and my parents bought them from him. I am finally getting around to putting the pictures and glass in. Hey, I'm just 3 months late. Since I rarely have a quiet childless moment the kids decided to help me. They were so excited about their pictures I had to take pictures. I got five 11x14 frames for the kids and one 25x30 frame for a family picture.

 The quaddies deciding on their frame. They love to have a choice even if they are all the same. Today was pajama day too. We hung out all day in jammies and they all didn't match.

Michael is Mr. Cheeser today.

Notice Annie has a chair now! Thanks Grandpa!

Two good pictures. It's a miracle. Now I just wish they were all dressed really cute and had their hair combed. Oh well, I'll settle for the smiles anyday!

Anthony

Jaileigh is so hard to catch smiling. She pretends she is shy when the camera comes out.

Another attempt

Jaileigh Bailey loves her picture. Her picture got cut off for some reason so I need to order a new one.

Even Annie got excited.

Anthony wanted to stare at his forever.

I finally got him to look up.

When I hang everything on the wall I'll try to remember to take a picture for you.

She Walks, She Walks, She Really, Really Walks!

This little girl has decided to walk. She stood up last night and took five steps just like she had been walking her whole life. We are so excited but I think she is more excited. Now she can really keep up with the quads.

AAANNNNNIIIIIEEEEEE!!!

She loves this purse. She has to fight her brothers and sister for it because they love it too. She puts it on her arm all by herself and carries it around just like this.

Silly Anthony trying to climb again.

The More The Merrier!

Grandma and Grandpa gave us this cool table for Christmas and we have finally put it to good use. We fit 8 babies around it for lunch.

Fun with our friends on the bouncer. This bouncer, that occupies our living room, has been one of best investments ever! The kids LOVE it and it saves my life on these rainy days.

Even Annie loves the bouncer. She tries to bounce just like everyone else.

Little Picasso's

These two steps are a favorite hang out at our house. I find Annie here all the time. She loves crawling up and down them. The quads love playing on them. They will bring their toys all the way from the family room and play with them here.

Bye Bye Gapa and Gama!

The day Grandma and Grandpa left was a sad one. The kids wandered around for a couple of days asking for them. We will have to go visit soon.

Grandpa and Daddy cleaned the suburban out. We brought the car seats in to wash them and the kids thought they were fun to play in. Grandma gave them oranges before she left.

5 High Chairs Finally

Not only did Grandma and Grandpa bring Annie a new white chair like the quads, they brought Annie a high chair! Hooray! She has been sharing with the quads and things have been a little tense with whoever's chair she is using. This 5th chair is a life saver! Thanks Gama and Gampa!
