Avery is six weeks old today, and she started rewarding us with the sweetest smiles! Mimi is in town to see the kids and help out with a bunch of doctor's appointments, and she got her to smile this big by doing Patty Cake with her. So cute!

This is what I do.
I take pictures. This blog is a way for me to capture the every day moments in this season of my life before it becomes too foggy in my memory for me to recall. This is a tangible reminder of what my life was like, what we did, what was important to us, how we spent our days. These are the every day matters, because to me, every day matters.

JonJon introducing technology to Avery. She was fascinated.

JonJon and Missy came to visit this weekend. There was a lot of trampoline fun with JonJon, playing in the playroom with Missy, and for the first time in my whole life, I beat JonJon at ping pong. TWICE.

Look closely and you will see why it's VERY handy having a seven year old around.
{Avery had woken up early so Ansley, with permission, went up to see what she could do to help. She got The Baby to sleep for another hour, just for the record.}

Ansley cleaned the entire kitchen for me, including washing the dishes. This girl is becoming quite helpful!

Five weeks never really seems like much time, until you have a baby. Five weeks means more alert, more cooing and babbling, more staring intently at Mama. Five weeks means Mama is back to normal, feeling good and mostly non-hormonal. Five weeks is good.

Having a baby makes me lament the passing of time. One day, this boy will no longer nap at random times, looking so cute and sweet and little, with his sweaty hair and dirty fingers. One day I'll shout "there's a firetruck!" while driving down the road, and no one will care. So I take pictures now, because four years has gone by just like THAT. Did you hear me snap? I snapped.

We enjoyed an afternoon of school outside. It worked so great, I might have to do it every day. Avery napped, Ansley learned and Christian jumped on the trampoline. And we got some good ol' sunshine!

Ansley actually captured this bee in her bug container today. She was VERY excited, and ran off showing it to everyone. She enjoyed watching it for a bit, and here she had to Skype Mimi to show her, but she did eventually let it go.
