Little #4 is almost 7 months old. She brings so much joy to our crazy household.

Each of the Littles have had their picture taken in this shirt. I have been meaning to take this shot for a while. Good thing I did it today – the shirt is almost too small!

My future SIL gave the kids these fun sunglasses and stickers today. She has a knack for finding such fun things for the Littles.

We also had to try them on Little #4. Her expression cracks me up!

Asleep at the table

Apparently getting up at 6:40am (on your own) makes you sleepy when lunchtime rolls around.

Little #3 was quiet all of a sudden during her lunch. I came out of the office and found her like this. I believe that she’s the first of our kids to fall asleep at the table.

Now I can only hope she will go to sleep when bedtime comes later tonight.
