You all thought my last blog was a joke but it wasn't - 71 pictures of nothing. I told Bob that I want to quit my job and take pictures of my kids - he suggested taking a photography class - I don't want to take pictures - I want to take pictures of MY kids! I suggest if you're already ready to fall asleep you do not proceed - BORING! But I promised Auntie Beth and I MISS her :( so........

Molly got a french manicure - we decided that when Auntie Beth comes home we are going to take her to get nails done and get California manicures - I think they are so cute!

My grumpy girl. When you are always with Ellie you have to learn to appreciate the small gifts she gives you. This is her "I will NOT smile no matter how cute you tell me I am" look.

"Fine, Mommy, is this enough for you to get that camera out of my face."

"Oh, Mommy, you think you won with that smile but really I'm just taking a big poop!" Gotta love the Ellie smiles - they are not as frequent as we hope for but boy are they sweet!

My most cooperative subject at this point is Lizzie. If only I remembered to get the mushed cereal out of her eyebrow before I took 17 pictures of the kid!

My little gardener - after 5 minutes she wanted to know why we couldn't just go to Big Y to get our veggies because this gardening stuff was way too hard! Gotta love my little worker bee!

Either the cutest little smile or the weirdest!

The twins - Ellie is sort of sitting up to play with Lizzie!

5 seconds later Lizzie takes her down!

Look at the smile still on Ellie's face - she has no idea she is not winning this fight!

And she's still trying to stay upright!

She's down for the count but still happy to be outside and playing with her sisters!Molly cut a peony to show the babies and so we took ALOT of pictures of the kids with them - no need for a commentary on the reast - just a mom thinking her kids are beautiful and loving them like crazy on a warm summer day!

I thought it was so cool that a white rose landed right in the middle of one of our Hosta leaves - later on Molly told me that she and Abby were making homes for the fairies that live in our yard - even better!

GNM - ILY!
