Blast from the past

Spending Thanksgiving with old friends was wonderful. Isn't it great how you can immediately pick up where you left off 5 years ago?

Yep, asking for a raise after this one...

It took me about 2 hours to notice, and only then it was because I couldn't figure out why there was hair all over the upstairs.
Sorry for the poor picture--but all of a sudden she looks like me!

Ellie didn't want to be left out of the hair chopping action, so we took a few inches off hers, too.


I figured as long as I had the scissors out and there was hair all over the bathroom, I might as well trim the little girls up as well.

I'm cleaning off my camera's flash card before Thanksgiving, and I found some good ones to show you! They're all out of order, but I'm sure you guys can figure that out :)
This is Miss Nancy working with Hope this week. Can you believe she's on her hands and knees? She did not like it. Otherwise, she's doing so well. Every week she makes noticeable progress, and her sitting up is getting so much better.







Isn't this a nice picture? If only I'd given her a haircut first...

When you're the fifth child, you have to put up with a lot of shenanigans.
