Someday some of my kids will look back on certain pictures and say, "How come everyone else is in this picture but me? Where was I?"
And the answer will always be the same: "You were throwing a fit and refused."

Dying Eggs 2017
Just 2 quick comments on these.
1. I'm DYING seeing that huge gap in Jossy's front teeth! I remember it being really big as we were using an expander and creating space in her mouth, but I forgot just HOW BIG it really was!!
2. I can always tell when Matty needs a haircut by the height of his crazy hair on the top back of his head.
Why Not Give Up?
I would love love love to be caught up on this blog again. When you find yourself somehow 8 months behind, it's easy to want to completely give up. But here's the thing: Years ago we had all our pictures on a hard drive off of our computer. And I tripped on a cord. . . and we lost a whole year's worth (maybe more.) The only surviving photos from that time are the ones I put on this blog. I am so GREATFUL!
It seems most people have abandoned family blogs, at least all but a rare few of my friends have. Facebook, Instagram, those are easier ways to keep up on others. But man, I value my family blog. Our whole story is here! It is a back-up of our memories and one day I hope hope hope I'm able to finally figure out the best way to print this so my family can have it!
So I will keep plowing forward, doing my best to catch up!
(Kind of like every day with 5 kids . . .)

The Easter Hunts 2017
The Easter Bunny came on Saturday for us, like every year, so that we could focus our Sunday more on Christ.
The kids got to hunt for their baskets in the basement.
Then we emptied baskets and headed off to the city egg hunt.
April the Giraffe
This is by far the most flattering picture to be posting on the internet! LOL
BUT it's funny to me. One morning we happened to catch the birth of a baby giraffe that the world had been waiting weeks to be shown. There had been a live feed going and everyone few days I just checked it randomly, not really expecting to catch "the moment," nor was I obsessed about it like some people. But I did happen to catch it, and all the kids climbed in our bed and we watched it together on our phones . . . until we realized we could just go watch it on a bigger screen downstairs on YouTube.
