Brothers

I've started doing instagram stories and it has me making videos during the day. I would have missed this!

Superhero Sisters

I did not feed her this line. I think it's inspired by Wonder Woman.

Also, they are doctors and Tessa is their patient.

Lucy’s new glasses

They're blue!

And then Nora wanted to be in the picture 

Then Tessa needed in too. I think Lucy looks like she's ready for an office job, instead of being 6.

Maxi and Daddy

He's learning to use the phone

Max Stretches

He's so big and strong

But he has friends to help when his neck gets tired

Max and Owen

Buddies!

And very similar in size and interest

Tessa’s shirt

I have mentioned before that Tessa is devoted to her ballerina shirt. She got a second one this weekend and is doubly devoted.  Lucy came by and requested I call her Diana like wonder woman. So Nora came by and requested I call her Belle like beauty and the beast. Tessa came by and understood that we were being called things we like, so she asked to be called Ballerina Shirt.

Tessa plays twister

By herself

You spin and tell her to put part of her on a color. Like, ballerina shirt red

Or hand yellow. And she is happy.

Night and morning

Max goes to bed earlier now, around 7, but he needs to be rocked for over an hour or he wakes back up. It's kind of my favorite part of the day, since I can read kindle books and cuddle

Then in the morning, he was sleeping with me and stays there for a while when I get up. It's so hard to get up!

It’s a bird, it’s a plane

He's mild mannered Clark Kent by day

But the pullover comes off and

Smiles

Max was so cranky but he had his moments today 😍

Maximilian’s Monday

Another picture by James, who apparently figured out how to open the camera without a pin

We're so close to the end of the late evening fussies. So close. But until then!

Pictures by James

It's a James-eye view

There were a LOT more ha

Epiphany Queen

Nora found the ring in her cake this morning. She chose watching Magic School Bus, getting Chick Fil a for a picnic, and was heavily influenced by her advisors into requesting privileges 

Park day

It went from really cold to pretty nice this week, so we went to the park with not-baby Georgia

It was too sunny and everyone kept looking away from the camera to shield their eyes

Tessa is quite the climber, Lucy is enthusiastic, and Georgia's brother is coming really soon

Brothers

Maxi looks so tiny, but he's well protected 

Max Smiles

I got a picture of Max smiling, but it's for the most bizarre reason. He must enjoy the chaos!

It's all fun and games when the cat won't stop hitting you in the face with his tail

My Afternoon

Asleep

Awake

Max

Since we named him, we see "Max" everywhere. Took the truck to carMax, bought Repel Max bug spray.

It's confusing for real Max

Reading

Charlie is so into his book he doesn't want to stop reading for lunch. Also, Tessa is messy and loves to eat

Little brother

 I was really excited for each of the girls to have a sister, but I never felt like James was missing out because he has a brother. But I think he has really needed a LITTLE brother.
