2. There’s just something hilarious about kids lying down in snowsuits.
3. Slides are even more exciting and slippery in the snow.
4. Kids can peel off layers in 2 seconds that took approximately 20 minutes to put on.

Danny: “Who says you can’t pair stripes with prints?”
January 15, 2013, at 10:15 pm | I don’t know what the girls are doing here, but I know they’re having fun doing it!
January 14, 2013, at 10:01 pm | Becky wanted to look like a ballerina, so she had the idea to fashion a hair accessory out of a Barbie skirt.
We were both pleased with the results!
January 13, 2013, at 9:05 pm | I still can’t believe I have TWO sons.
And I can’t believe they’re already annoying each other!
Jimmy’s favorite thing to do in the car is scream as soon as Danny quiets down so that Danny starts wailing again. Once Danny calms himself, Jimmy screams yet again. And the pattern continues.
And when we’re home, if Danny’s arm or leg accidentally brushes – ever so lightly – Jimmy’s body, Jimmy gets an incredibly offended, pained look on his face. Then he points to the part of his body that was touched and whimpers pitifully as if Danny had just karate-chopped him.
Oh brother!
January 10, 2013, at 10:24 pm | While reading a book with the girls about Snow White, I pointed out how nice it was of the princess to help the dwarfs clean up their cottage. I wanted to motivate the girls to help me more around the house, so I pointed to a picture of Snow White making the dwarfs’ beds, and I said, “We should do that!”
Becky looked at the picture, and then suggested, “Maybe Bubba can do that, so we won’t have to work anymore!”
I’ll have to tell Bubba (my mother-in-law) that all her helping out around our house is giving my lazy little dwarfs the wrong idea!
January 9, 2013, at 9:30 pm | If you look very closely in the picture below, you’ll see that Danny is wearing a purple floral headband.
Danny, let’s hope you learn to talk soon so you can tell your sisters to keep their accessories to themselves!
January 8, 2013, at 10:43 pm | Danny had his first taste of solid food yesterday and he took it well! His siblings were a very boisterous cheering section. When I told Jimmy we were giving his little brother some cereal, Jimmy promptly ran to the cupboard, grabbed a box of Honey Bunches of Oats, and placed it on the counter. I don’t know if it was supposed to be for him or Danny, but it made me laugh!
January 7, 2013, at 9:49 pm | Jim is used to being treated like a giant trampoline by the big kids, so he decided to let Danny in on the fun.
The more the merrier!

ABOUT US I'm blessed to be saved by the grace of God, loved by my wonderful husband Jim, and embraced by my twin girls, Rebecca Faith and Susanna Joy and my sons Jimmy and Danny. I started this blog in May 2008 when I was hospitalized for pre-term labor at 24 weeks gestation. The Lord allowed me to keep the girls inside until they were 34 weeks along, and on July 27th, Rebecca made her debut, followed by Susanna, five minutes later, on July 28th. We ecstatically welcomed Jimmy into our lives on April 25th, 2011, and Danny on August 31, 2012. This blog has been a personal journal of faith and motherhood and the only way I can remember which child did what and when. Thanks for stopping by to share in my Faith and Joy! Feel free to e-mail me at: [email protected].
