Last night #3 came upstairs all 'spiked up' Apparently #2 was his stylist:) I happen to love it when they spike their hair. What hair product would help it stay like this during the day? He asked me to turn the fan off because it was making his hair fall down. I like the big man's hair all spiky too, it's kinda cute and adventuresome. For some reason he's not all over that style;)



This was where I found the older two when I was calling them in for lunch one day. They were actually much higher up, when they came in I told them they needed to find a tree that wasn't so near the sidewalk for my comfort;)



Our little guy is growing so much! He has been smiling and laughing so much in the last week or so! Tuesday night I came home from practice and James said he rolled over. I was hoping it was just a fluke but yesterday he did it several times too!
Here is a really short video of his giggles, battery ran out as I was filming.

Birthday Girl

From yesterday


Some kids might be disappointed to receive a pack of gum for their birthday. But not mine, it's a treat around here and she's having fun blowing the bubbles....I'm trying my best to ignore the gum smacking......

Happy 8 years!

She picked out a fun-fetti cake with Strawberry Icing and Black Raspberry Chocolate Ice Cream-lots of pink!

Today she had a pool date with a friend-I forgot to take pictures! It was a crazy kind of day and I was just enjoying talking to another adult, LOL! Yesterday, #2's bible study teacher brought cupcakes to class because #2 had been sad the week before that her dad was going to be gone for her birthday. She has such a thoughtful teacher, trying to help cheer her up! Daddy's home now, I think....he kinda crashed once he got home...we'll let you know once the jet lag is gone.

Sunday Service

We were asked to dance at a service on the beach today. I danced one song with the group (Hula no ke Akua, Dancing for Him). Was a different experience with people on all sides of you in varying degrees of dress;) I just had 2 of the kids with me so the video isn't post worthy as #2 was holding #5 during part of it and so there are pictures of sand and feet, lol! He was sleeping during the run through but she was busy playing then and didn't tape for me. Oh well, maybe next time.
We danced The Prayer, a beautiful song which I can't find in a quick search by itself so here is another group dancing a different dance than we do but it is still beautiful and the song is the same.

A couple of boys

#3 at the pool last week

This is what #5 thought of the pool. Actually he screamed when I dipped his feet in(the water was cool) but we seem to always go during nap time so he's never awake enough to enjoy(or try to)

Little Bean

The little one had a check up today. Figured I'd let you know the details before I forget to share. He is 7 weeks and weighs 16 pounds and is 26 inches long. His head has grown another inch too and is 16 1/2 'round. Nice and plump....love his thighs and arms! He moves himself enough to move around the blanket and has been running into the entertainment center. Boy is he unhappy when his head runs into the bottom of that! *Note to self* move blanket into the middle of the the floor. Although that presents it's own problems in the name of big brothers/sister who aren't always paying attention....one of the hazards of being the youngest I suppose.
This post really should have a picture, maybe the camera and the computer will meet soon, lol.

Lifehouse

They grow so fast

I just had to share my shock. My baby girl is now wearing adult sized shoes! Before I know it she's going to want to borrow mine!
