Playin' Catch Up & Sweet New Pics

Wow, am I behind or what!? Crazy times around here lately, which I know is not new news :). We have been going non-stop since my "Break Time" post...ironic, huh?! Even though my head has been spinning a little w/ everything going on right now, I did learn something new this week...

...selling a house and dealing with multiple showings with many young children is not exactly the easiest thing in the world...it is insane!!

Wow, has my agenda been turned upside down by a small For Sale sign, and some Showings. My world has been rocked by the fact that every time the phone rings, we may have to evacuate our home...oh, and the house has to be perfect when I close the door behind me :). It is an adventure, that is for sure...but I like an adventure, and crazy times make for some good memories :).

So what have we been doing? Nothing too out of the ordinary. The park with friends, the pool, the store, the pool, grandma's house, the pool :). I know you all may be tired of seeing pics from...you guessed it, the pool, but I couldn't resist this one...ok two :).

Sweet girls, healthy snack, and what looks to be the beginnings of a black eye??? Oh don't worry, that's not a black eye, that is just what happens when you have goggles suctioned to your face for literally hours at a time. Yep, that is my sweet, goggle lovin' Char without her goggles.

She keeps them close by though. You aren't a true swimmer without your pink, Speedo goggles...or so she thinks :).


And I also wanted to share these pics of this sweet little boy. I got to do a photo shoot with him and his 2 older brothers recently and I just had to share these two pics. Isn't he so stinkin' cute!?




Hope you all had a great weekend!!

Oh the days of selling a house, with a houseful of little ones. I remember those days well.

We sold one house when I was pregnant with #8 and I was homeschooling 7 kids under 13. The next house, my husband moved 150 miles away, our house was on the market for 9 months, and those happened to be the 9 months that I was pregnant with #9 (and the worst pregnancy yet). Ugh!

Praying that your house sells QUICKLY!

We are getting ready to put our house on the market too....we have a realtor coming over tomorrow! So exciting but nerve racking at the same time!

We REALLY need to get together, let me know when you are free!

Isn't it crazy how time flies?! I find myself feeling sometimes like individual days might never end... but weeks and weekends, well I don't even know where they go! You are amazing, I don't know how you do it. You inspire and encourage me, though! Thank you!

I can't even imagine selling ahouse now...we tried when we had just TWO at home and it was exhausting! I hated that EVERY TIME I leftthe house I had to make sureall was in order JUST IN CASE someone called to look at it!!
