Look at him.  Such a man!

Except, turns out he also makes a pretty good woman.  Sean rocks at taking care of our family these days, doing grocery shopping and cooking on most nights.  I am not so much, how should I put it…back to myself yet.  Which is to say…I count it a personal victory if I shower before noon. Shoot.  If I shower AT ALL.  And you know that is a big deal for me, seriously, because showering is one of my favorite things.  That, and sleeping.  Which is also not happening much. Because the baby, she eats, and demands her food to come from only one source, if you know what I mean.  Anyway.  My point is, we finally broke down and got a Netflix subscription.

Sean chop wood.  Make fire.  Rawr.

And this guy.  He found a flower.

It was pretty.

The full effect of The Outfit, which I cannot begin to explain.  All I know is that it has something to do with Mario.

The eldest daughter.  What?  Right.  I have two now.  It’s still all so new to me.  In any case, if this were a Jane Austen novel, her appropriate title would be Miss Sawyers.  Classy!

Newbie.  Big smiles these days.  Love that baby.

Love all my babies!

It is great to see ALL of you! It gets better. Adding a third child and moving in the same month has to be disorienting. Being a baby-wearing, baby-feeding mom takes a lot out of a woman. When you get enough sleep you will feel normal again. That will happen when Emma goes to college. Maybe.

What a beautiful family. You have so much to be proud of. I know how proud I am of each one of you. Sean and Nikki you are doing a great job. Love You all

Love Joseph’s hair getting longer.

My goodness you have a gorgeous family. Miss Sawyers looks just like you! And that picture of Emma is hilarious. She has the maniacal glee down pat, I see. What a cutie!

Beauties and the beast . . .
