Emma strung these shapes all by herself!

Owen loves to work on patterns!

We posed just like the puzzle pieces!

RED!

Hope has been asking me about coloring her hair red...like Ariel in the Little Mermaid. I have put her off for a few weeks until I saw some temporary hair dye at Target for about $5. We asked Desi and his response, "Why not?" So, yesterday we colored Hope's hair and boy was she excited! As you can see, it's pretty bright! We must be pretty cool parents to let our 5yr dye her hair! Ha Ha!

We were over at the Duell's house today to take some family pictures for them. Karen kindly took some family shots for us. These are a couple of the better ones.

Make a silly face!

Mama Jr.

It's nice to have Mama Jr. around, although I doubt Levi really likes to be held by her...Just look at his expression! For all you worriers out there, Hope is very proficient with holding him and is very careful...Even then, the worst that could happen is she drops him and he falls 2 feet and cries a lot. Hope fell off our bed twice as a baby and is o.k. In fact, she's one of the smartest almost 6yr olds around! Don't know why I am going on about this...Must be the sever exhaustion! Ha Ha!

Worms, Worms, and More Worms

What's more fun than fishing for worms in puddles after a big rain storm? According to these kids nothing is!

Thank You Aunt Nina!

We love the beautiful blanket you made for Levi! Thank you! I used it today to shield him from that hail!
Love you, Rose
