Stephanie's Spontaneous Road Trip

Stephanie called on Thursday afternoon and asked if it would be okay if she came down for a couple of days, because she needed to just get away. Well, we scrambled together a semi-clean house and the kids had fun together with their cousins as always. And hopefully Stephanie was able to get some much needed getaway time. Too bad you missed it Eric. :( Just a few pics of Ana and Caleb playing some music on the piano. They were actually getting along here. Hopefully they will grow out of the fighting stage.

These are some pics of Julia holding Eli. Joshua happened to see me with the camera and jumped in there for the pic above. Julia was so cute with Eli, she just wanted to hold him all the time. She kept saying how cute he was over and over again. To quote her she said, "Eli is really, really, really, really, really. . . . . . . .(on and on and on) really cute! I just want to hold him all the time." He even spit up on her several times and she was okay with that. What a good little Mommy she will be! He actually preferred her holding him over his brothers. He used to be okay with brothers holding him, but more recently he's not loving it. They are just not motherly enough, I suppose. And she had to be pretty strong to hold this boy! My kiddos think he is just too heavy to hold for very long.

These are some cute pics of Hugh. He put this Mr. Potato head hat on his head. Funny boy! He also found my cooking mitts and was walking around with them on his hands. Just thought it looked funny so I took a picture.
