Some sweet shots

And now, a few cute photos of the kids, snapped by my Mom during her week long stay in MN earlier this month. Mom flew to Rochester on Quinn's birthday (March 9th, yeah I haven't blogged about that yet, shame on me) and stayed for 8 glorious days. She bought a new digital camera while here, and WOW! the clarity! Her pics are tons better than the ones taken with our old, but loved, digital.


Max & Mae sporting dress-ups for Gran.


Gran whipped out some new headbands for Mae during her visit. Cute, cute, cute work Mom!! And cute, cute, cute little Mae!



Max, playing with the little ducky that was stuck in Quinn's birthday cake.
Eat him with a spoon! Cute!



Quinn, cheesin' for the camera. What a cute, goofy 4-year-old!


Mom, Mike and I ganged up on the kids after church, sat them on a bench and started snapping pictures. Mom got this cute one, I love it! I could look at it all day, but I'm the Mama....


Us, relaxing. I like reading children's books as much as my children do. There are so many fun books out there, so clever, so colorful, so creative.


Thanks for the great snapshots, Mom! It was magic having you in my home.

I've just read this post through and realized that I used "cute" maybe a little more than I should have.
Why are there not more words that sound like "cute"? "Darling"? Too mushy. "Sweetie"? Too sugary. "Adorable"? Way too many syllables.
Here I have unearthed a major problem with my vocabulary, but have not the energy to truly tackle it tonight. What to do? Get on my cute pajamas and dream of cute things. :)

4 Years old?! Where did the time go? Well i don't think there is a better word to describe them. They are all so cute. :)

Cute! :)
And your mom makes adorable headbands. Tell me her secret. Happy 4th birthday Quinn. We miss you.

Molls, I've been waiting for more pics of these cuties!! Your twins are almost 2 now, aren't they? Mine are almost 1 and I thought they were pretty close to a year younger than yours. Mae's hair looks a lot like Emily's. Except way longer than Em's. Aaron's hair is at least twice as long as Em's. Some things in life just aren't fair. ;)

What are some of your favorite children's books? We love books by Don and Audrey Wood, Betsy Lewin, and (sadly) my kids love Dora or Backyardigan books. :)

Glad to see that you're doing well!
