Computing

Ahh, computers. We certainly are in a digital age and the kids will never know any different. Although Im sure our family is a little slow on the integration of technology in our lives, but I like it that way.
The kids favorite is PhotoBooth on our Macs. They could spend hours with the immediate satisfaction of silly faces preserved for eternity.

I was just thinking we should step up our computer usage.

And then a cup of coffee was spilled directly on my mother's laptop.

The good news is they didn't kick us out.

The bad news is, Im sure the computer is ruined.

So, we will stick with PhotoBooth and good old fashioned paper.

This Moment:: 4 Aunt Melissa

Ella: "Aunt Melissa would love me today because I have a roller skate on my shirt and Im an artist."
Me: "Aunt Melissa loves you everyday."

Take Notice

Days fly by around here. Sometimes if I don't stop and take notice, Im afraid Ill forget the way things are today.

**Colby eats his meals in a booster seat on top of the table or counter bar. His perch is perfect for observing his big brothers and sister, grabbing whatever is in reach and supervising the cooking.

**Tyler is struggling a bit with our Fall transition. He is VERY tired after school, but hasn't napped in years. He needs a little extra mommy time, and Im happy to coddle him. I know he will be too big too soon.

**Drew is relishing in Captain time. Just looking at them together is enough.

**Ella is trying to find her place amidst all the boys. She has been asking for a sister. She isn't getting one.

I love right now, especially since I will never have it again.
