3 months!

I need to take pictures of just her rolls, they go on and on and on!  Love her!

2 months old and 2 years!

Love these two little ones!  And I suppose I'll keep the three older ones as well......

Charlotte Isobel

I guess I need to work on a new name for the blog!  This sweet little girl was born in December!  Miss Charlotte has been such a wonderful and hopefully FINAL addition to our family!  We are all very much in love with her.  She is such a good baby, rarely cries and is entertained 24/7 by this crazy crew. 

Marcus is not quite sure what to think, it has been ups and downs of trying to figure out what to do with this baby.  He does love her inbetween the pokes and proding. 

 

And this little girl is in heaven to have another girl in the family!  She is so excited to share a room, which is good because we don't have another room!!

Charlotte is the chunckiest baby we have had, her rolls just seem to keep on going.  And I love it!!

Daniels FAVORITE time of year...... or not

It's Pine Wood Derby time. This year we have TWO cars to do. Let me just start by saying Daniel is not too fond of this event. In the past it has been a very frustrating event, coming from a house with no tools for the job. SO this year we headed on down to Grandpa Schern's Workshop! As you can see from the pictures, he has every tool you would need and more! All the boys had such a fun time making these cars this year, and that is what it is all about right? (well and winning helps I guess too, but we wouldn't know about that one)... The boys were so happy with their cars. Grandma made them special boxes with padding to take the cars home in. They were so excited to race!

Playing in the snow

Well we had a snow day here a while ago, which doesn't take much snow usually... But we did get a good amount and decided to enjoy it while it lasts! It was Marcus's first time out touch the cold wet stuff. Needless to say, he didn't think it was as fun as the other kiddos! All three kids, with the help of their dad, built some pretty cool forts in the front yard that kept them entertained for quite a while!




I like this picture. It is cute to me to see it when Marcus and Ella hang out together. A boy and his dog.

Pleated Tote

I have been wanting to try making bags for a while, and I finally found one that I thought was so cute! I even made it with some fat quarters that I already had. This is a great bag for beginners, very nice instructions, and quick! Here is where I got the pattern. This designer has a couple of patterns in PDF for free! Even better!

Baby Girl Quilt

I just finished this cute quilt that I made for a friend who is having their first baby girl. I LOVE the way it turned out! And I found this awesome way to do this patten from this blog. I may have to do another one with the fabric I have left over! Do you think Marcus would mind a pink and orange blanket? :-0
