For Nate...

So like I said, Nate is in Ireland, while the boys and I are here in Spokane, with his family. Nate misses his little boys, so he asked me to post some pictures of them.

Here are some pictures from the arcade...


Here are some pictures from playing outside with the cool sprinkler. By the way, this was such a fun sprinkler for them to play with, because there are a lot of different spouts, so everyone can have their own... no fighting is always a bonus. The spouts are also the perfect size for filling up water balloons.







Little baby Sayer...


Here is some video of Sayer talking and laughing a little bit. Sometimes he will really get talking, but I couldn't get him to do it. It was also a little challenging holding him with one hand, and filming with the other. The second part is Asher and the two other 2 year olds, being silly. Asher wouldn't say "I love you daddy", but Ally would. You will be able to get an idea of the craziness going on in this house from this video.


We've been having a fun week so far. There have definitely been some stressful moments with 10 little kids, 3 of which are 2 year olds, but we are still alive. Sayer actually had a little accident today. He was sitting in the bumbo chair on top of the counter, and one of the little ones basically pushed the bumbo chair off the counter... with him still sitting in it. It was so sad, and quite frankly, I am SO glad that I didn't see it happen, because I think I would have been hysterical. But, aside from his misshapen head, and being sad because he is in pain, he is fine. These are the times when it is SO nice that my Father in law is a pediatrician. He just came over, and checked him out, and said that he was fine. Just fyi, if something like this ever happens to you someday, you should be worried if...

they hit their head so hard that they start to bleed, like a cut or something,
they lose consciousness,
they're not crying,
when they're soft spot is swollen

So anyway... there's a little recap of our trip so far... just for you Nate!

Looks like some good times with the in-laws. The video is so cute. I love how Asher is having too much fun to pay attention to you. That is so scary the Sayer thing. you are very lucky to have a pediatrician in the fam. that would be so nice. Im glad the little guy is okay.
