Cute baby Jesus

Lincoln observing his little smiley sister, "Dixie's the cutest baby. She is cuter than anyone...uh...except for God when He was a baby. Was God a baby? You don't think so? Ok, then maybe just Jesus was cuter when he was a baby."

Have a good...

So. Boone has the sweetest heart. I mean it. He is always the first to tell me how beautiful my hair looks when I put it in that rare, easy ponytail.  He will say, "I like that pretty dress," on days when I'm too lazy to put an outfit together and just throw on the maxi skirt that goes with everything. 

Lately, every time he passes through a room that I am in, instead of walking silently by, he finds something polite to tell me. E.G. "Have a nice snuggle with Dixie, Mom," or, "Have a nice snack of those pretzels!" Just now he was heading back outside to make mud puddles with his brothers.  His sweetness and sincerity paired with those giant blue eyes and dimpled smile takes the cake, "Have a nice sit there doing nothing!" 

Oh I will, child. 

Holy Money

"Mom, is this Jesus on my coin?" 

Silly Boone

Boone was told to put his shoes on to go play outside...

"Okay! I'll be as fast as a bunny! Look at this mom!!! (Winks and gives me a thumbs up!)"

Dressed by Dad

Johnny and I had our first "conflict" about raising a girl this morning. I took too long getting ready so he dressed her for church. "IT'S MY TURN! You always get to dress her" I let him win. Probably won't be posting a picture this morning. Lets just say her ensemble consists of a headband AND a bow, along with what I consider pajamas.

Post Pinky Promise Plea

Boone just woke from his nap and is snuggling with Dixie and I. 

"Mom, what should we name our next baby girl?"

"Our NEXT baby? We aren't having any more babies. Don't you think we have enough??"

"No, we need another little girl so Lincoln can dance with that one. Dixie is MY favorite."

This is the same kid who made me pinky promise as I was leaving for my baby shower, "Pinky promise we won't have any more babies."
