A girl and her duck! They both look very comfy. Daddy loves it that given a choice of bears and all kinds of other stuffed animals, Abby chose this duck.
Kelsey’s birthday party favors were from Toy Story 3. No Slinky Dog, but we did have slinkies!
Waiting for the big event. For Kelsey’s birthday, the big kids all got to go to the theater and see Toy Story 3.
The twins are ready to go!
Daddy feels sorry for Emma who doesn’t get to go.
They’re all stuffed into the car.
The babies and I watch them take off.
Then I set the babies up for their own movie, complete with popcorn and drinks and Reese cups. They even got to eat in the living room!
It’s not Toy Story 3, but they loved it! It’s Willy the Sparrow, which all of my kids have loved at their age.
















"Oh that God would give every mother a vision of the glory and splendor of the work that is given to her when a babe is placed in her bosom to be nursed and trained! Could she have but one glimpse in to the future of that life as it reaches on into eternity; could she look into its soul to see its possibilities; could she be made to understand her own personal responsibility for the training of this child, for the development of its life, and for its destiny,--she would see that in all God's world there is no other work so noble and so worthy of her best powers, and she would commit to no other's hands the sacred and holy trust given to her." -JR Miller
