Saturday chaos

My Saturday mornings used to be spent transcribing for 4 hours (2 before the kids got up and 2 after)...as you can imagine, this usually didn't go so well. Kids apparently need to eat. Need to be supervised. Need lots and lots and lots of attention. A few weeks ago while attempting to transcribe, I took a break to find this going on in the house...

Austyn is on the counter in the cabinet looking for... who knows what!

Drew is sitting on the bathroom floor playing with Austyn's princess cards...

and Lia (in charge...) is taking a bath. with Nash. and soon to follow - Drew.

nothing accomplished transcribing this particular morning...

BUT 3/6 clean kiddos = bonus!

As for Peyton and Tayt... I'm guessing they were out of "trouble" this particular morning, but I can't promise that.

clenched fists

One of my favorite things about newborns is the clenched fists... immediately adding that to my list of "Things I'll Miss..." One of my least favorite things is the amount of crying during bath time. This poor little girl screams right up until the time when I put her diaper on. Warm water. Hate it. Washing her hair. Hate it. Lotion. Despises it. I'm just glad she's big enough now to use the tub that I use in the sink. She looks so chubby and is starting to get those classic Smith chubby thighs and arms. (comparison below) Maybe not much of a difference to the naked eye (pun intended) buttttt I love it... yet I beg her every day to ssslllooowww down on the growing!
