Here are a few of the faces of 3.5…

Happy..

Whatever!

Wait, you are putting this on your blog?

Did they just say a degu is out?

(really.. that's what just happened when this picture was taken. Don't worry the degu was caught.)

One Year Ago….

Posted on February 22, 2012 by Queenie

One year ago today The Man and I came home with #6. His birth was not like any of our other kids. He was 8 weeks early and weighed a little over 4lbs. If you've never had a child in the NICU, you probably don't realize you have to be "tested" to see if you know how to take care of your baby before you bring it home. I wrote about that HERE.

The day they cut this band.. I wanted to cry.. I wanted to scream and do a jig. (I didn't because I thought they'd keep me there if I did.)

Here's #4 and #6 the day he came home.

You should know that #4 isn't bank robber, he just had a cold that day.

Here they are today..

He was 4lbs 3 ounces and 16" long when he was born. He's 22lbs and 31" long one year later. He went from wearing preemie clothes to wearing 18 month clothes. How blessed are we?

Pretty blessed.

Pinterest February Photo Challenge Day 1: My View

Posted on February 1, 2012 by Queenie

I'm taking the Pinterest Photo a Day Challenge. Today's Photo is "MY VIEW".. I thought maybe I'd take a view from our front porch… then I thought maybe I'd just take a view of what I can see where I am sitting. The view from my front porch is better than this..

Here's what's in front of me. My laptop, sunglasses, scissors, birthday card, iced tea (not much ice in it), Star Wars light up candy light sabers, #4's MP# player, USB Cord, back scratcher, and my Chumby (that needs a new plug)

To the right of me is this kid #5. He woke up last night not feeling so good.

To the left of me is this kid.. #2.. He's working. Please ignore the mess behind him AND that we have not taken all of our Christmas junk down. Most of it is down.. we just have a few stragglers here and there.
