FFF: Family Photos

This weeks theme is favorite family photos. I think it goes great with the beginning of National Adoption Awareness month. As you can see in my header (which is another one of my favorite photos), Adoption Builds a Family. I am incredibly blessed by my children and my wonderful husband.

A we-clean-up-nice family foto from my cousin's recent wedding (Lili was sick and Toby had just woken up...notice his no pictures look)

Our very first family foto home

Taken on Liliana's pick up trip after Greg had joined us (on a side note: Look at my husbands white legs...gosh did he need some sun)


Taken two days after Toby was placed in my arms forever


I have been very busy this week, posting nearly every day. if you have missed them just go HERE And if you'd like to see more favorite family fotos go see SARAH Have a fantastic weekend everyone!

I've been tagged....

I have been tagged! My blogger friend, Ruthie tagged me and I'm supposed to list seven weird things about myself and then tag 7 other blogger friends. Here's what you need to do if you've been tagged. Copy the award off my blog; list seven weird things about yourself; and then pass the award on to seven other bloggers! Okay, ready to get a little weird with me? :)

1. I am psychotic (as my husband puts it) about my blankets at night. They have to be neat and just right. I cannot sleep if they are all bunched up. Drives me nuts.

2. I like peanut butter with syrup on my waffles (Thank you Mimi!). It's delish.

3. I will within hours of being someplace, pick up the accent. I am very suseptible(sp?) to dialects.

4. I must sit in the same seat every week when I am attending a class. I also like to sit in the same pew every week at church.

5. I cannot stand to be in a large crowd of people. I get very claustrophobic and start to panic. It made working an in ampitheater very interesting at times.

6. I am one of those weird people that will stop to help a hurt or lost animal, but won't if it's a person because I'm too scared that they will abduct me.

7. And the weirdest thing about me....I have no belly button due to my birth defect (a post for another time perhaps)

I am tagging....
And whoever else would like to join in
*********************************************
And my friend sent me this in an email and I just had to share cause it's hysterical...


The First Kiss It's your First Kiss and several questions might come to mind: Is it the right time? Is anyone watching? Does your partner even want to? Is your breath fresh? AND,---Should you use some tongue? Then you think . .. 'What the heck ............. Go for it!!!'
This must be a 2nd or 3rd child... because Mom grabbed the camera and not the kid!

Wacky Wednesday

That's how I feel this week after getting up with the sun thanks to the time change. Yesterday was another gorgegous day (think 70 degrees) so we headed outside to play in the leaves. The kids had a ball jumping in them and chasing their Mommy around the yard. Toby also made the leaves into a car and "drove" me and Liliana around town. When you're done reading this post keep going, as I'm spoiling all of you, because I posted yesterday too.


Toby insisted that I take a picture of his new drawing....a spider

Who is that there in the leaves?


It's a LEAF MONSTER....oh no!


That's not a leaf monster....It's just my Toby.


Those leaves are so nasty. I can't believe he's playing in them. Yuck!


I am just too cute....and I know it too!


Mommy you are SO silly that I'm going to make this cute little face and this cute little pose just so you know


Mommy you put your seat belt on, now!


I'm cute too Mommy....



See!


Don't I have the cutest smile?


You can't hide Mommy....we'll find you!


This is what she does when she wants up....it is happening quite a bit due to time change and the cutting of her "fang" teeth. It mostly happens when I am trying to accomplish something (darn that toddler radar)


And this is what happens when I do not respond to the diva quick enough. I LOVE teeth cutting and time change!
