Thanksgiving

The only picture I took on Thanksgiving...lots of little dudes coloring it up at Aunt Helen's! We definitely have so much up be thankful for.

The countdown to Brody, Grandma Yakey, Harper and Baby Jesus' birthday is on.

Giving Thanks

Brody’s Prayer:

Thank you God for this day.

Thank you for the things we like and the things we don’t like

Thank you for our house and bricks.

Thank you for our mama and daddy.

Thank you for grammy and grampy.

Thank you for aunts and uncles.

Thank you for our food and milk.

Amen.

The Greats

Ssshhh…don’t tell Grandma and Grandpa Yakey, but we attempted to get all nine great-kiddos in one picture.  We really needed Kelly McCormick to come save the day, but we tried to make do.

Will’s face is priceless…appears to be giving Natalie and Ri the biggest scolding.  Probably making sure they didn’t try to snatch his smarties?

the boys.  (this marked the end of photos – look at ri’s face – pouty lip and all)

from left to right: Brothers Crewe (7 months) and Eli (2 1/2), Brody (almost 4) holding Brooke (1 month old), Cohen (4) holding his sister Harper Rose (11 months old), Natalie (2 on January 1 and big sister to Brooke), Riley (2 1/3), and then William (16 months).  In March, Cohen and Harper will add their little brother to the mix!

November

 

Happy Birthday, Grampy!

Arch or Arc?

Bedtime Conversation:

Me: "I drove by the arch today."
Brody: "Did you see Noah??"
Me: "Nope. I didn't have Allison with me."
Brody: "Well, did you see all his animals??"

It took a second but I finally caught on.

Someone does not want to nap...
