The Cutest Baby Ever



Escape!

The teeth. I know.
disclaimer: not actually cuter than our other children who were, in their time, also the cutest baby ever.

Sabrina is really cute. She loves to clap and climb and pretend she's as big as her siblings. She loves to sneak into places she's not allowed in and to play games. She waves her arms around all cute when music comes on. She's trying to learn words and Nick swears she said something like "I love you" the other day. She definitely shakes her head "no" and claims "Mom mom mom mom" and "Dadadadadad"

I'm going to be so sad when her grin isn't just two-teeth



We still don't have a kitchen table (its in the garage getting painted. Still.  When I take on projects sometimes I  forget I have a baby who can't be left alone). So one night Gage was sitting at the card table in the lawn chair that currently graces our kitchen & he accidentally knocked his plate of taco salad off the table. Sabrina went into full puppy mode and began to experience all sorts of new flavors. She was happy. I was...not quite as happy.

Driving Nana's jeep. This is before we moved? Oh yeah! We've moved! Wow, I'm behind on posts.
 I think the rest of these pictures are pre-move. Eventually I'll take house pictures. But these are at Nana's:
Sink bath!




Birthday hugs! This was my birthday. I have cute kids.

We've been in our new house for about a month. WOW. Where does the time go? NO really. Where? Anyway, we are loving it. The boys are loving kindergarten. And they love having neighbors. Danica though is pretty sad because she had gotten used to all the attention and now she has only me for half the day, and then the boys want to go play with their friends and...she misses being at Nana's. 

Meanwhile, with Sabrina's intrepid new mobility skills it is a good thing we moved when we did. Poor Nana's house would've soon resembled a war zone. Which is perfect for our house because I am unpacking at a turtle's pace and it kind of resembles a war zone anyway. 

(except guys! I hung a curtain! In my living room. Yes, it is only one and the other window is still naked but I am getting there. I know.)


Sabrina is very proud of her ability to sit in a chair (note: this is our house! Woot! Also, I love how you can hear Hunger Games in the background)
Again, all impressed with herself. She doesn't do much in this video but you can experience the cuteness:

And, just for a moment, you get to see her arm-flail dance.


Note: don't pay attention to what it says at the bottom. This post was written by Janine. It is important, in arguments about who does what, that proper credit is given for blogging.

Catching Up

I'll throw up a few photos from the past few months that I have from my phone. Enjoy. :)

Whoa cute!
Now that is what America is all about. It was a happy 4th of July.

Reid's gymnastic prowess has been revealed!
Redheaded frohawk. Awesome.
Reid lost his first tooth. He lost another soon there after. He spent the money on Skylanders.

Lost In Translation

Dani told me today, "Daddy, I'm doing gymnastics." She flops around for a minute. "Look, I'm going on the beans."

The 2012 Summer Olympics were apparently inspiring to the rising generation.

Another quick story.

Have I ever mentioned that Dani loves carrots and ranch dressing? Well, a few days ago the cousins were all singing Lady Gaga's line, "want your bad romance." Dani, however, was singing, "I want some more ranch."

These are true stories.
