Randoms

Lots and lots of randoms. Since getting our new camera I have been taking a lot more pictures trying to get a better feel for the functions. Here are several pictures from home and when I babysat for Gwen, Sonja and Naomi. I just have to say, I have such great nieces and daughters.  You would think just me taking care of 5 kids 5 and under (including a 4 month old) would be challenging but it really isn't.  They are all such great kids and get along so well (for the most part).
Not a great one of my but I love Addison's expression

Me and my ladies :)

Caroline searching for gold!

Caroline...she looks so sweet here

Addison

I was doing a series of timer pictures with Caroline and Addison decided she wanted to get in on the action

Caroline

Caroline has recently been dancing with her arms like this and we had no idea where it came from until Gwen told us she taught her the chicken dance.  Ha, too funny.

Caroline snuggles

Addison loves to wear that particular piece of Tupperware on her head as a hat.  It fits just right :)

Beautiful Sonja

Linnea and Cam have taken out some baby toys for Naomi to start exploring and Addison & Caroline have been loving them!  Fortunately, they basically weigh the same as an 9-12 month old so they can still use them.  Here is Addison in the jonny jump-up

Addison in the swing

Naomi now eats cereal but she makes feeding her a bit messier and longer because she puts her thumb in her mouth between each bite....Arg!!!!  But very cute!

Caroline's turn in the jump-up

And Caroline in the exersaucer

Naomi is the sweetest baby you will ever meet.  This is not even coming from a biased opinion (though I do have one of course).  Her only flaw is that she does not take a bottle.  Otherwise, she sleeps great, is very content when awake and loves to smile.


Cute boots

Naomi not only tolerates Sonja being in her face but loves it!

Addison loves to point out planes when she hears or sees them.  They both have inherited my super hearing and it is proved over and over again whenever they can even pick out a plane noise when we are inside.
