A Look Through My Phone...

Here are some pictures from my phone that I've taken over the past few weeks.  For some reason they are showing up on this blog very stretchy-looking??

Poor Charlotte woke up sick one day with a weird few-hour virus.  After a morning of throwing up, she fell asleep in her high chair:(


One afternoon Roy was working outside and came inside to tell me to come look at something.  Roy Austin saw that Daddy was working, so he quickly ran to get eye protection glasses, a ladder and a clamp to "work on the house".

This girl loves a good book:)  I told her I'd pay her $1 for each book she reads this summer.  I've paid her $3 just this week!

Our good friends, the Taylors, came to visit us a few weekends ago while Roy was out of town.   We hit Qdoba on Cinco de Mayo.  This table was loud!!!

Caroline and Caleb have been buddies since birth, but I think they're getting to the age where hugs are a little embarrassing:)

This picture was not posed!  We were eating out one night and I looked across the table to see Charlotte loving on her big sis.  I love moments like this.  They DO happen!!!

Remember when you were little and your dad would travel and you and your siblings fought over who would sleep with Mommy?  Well, it was Caroline's night and Roy Austin ended up having a bad dream at 1:30.  I ended up moving to Caroline's bed at 2:00 for obvious reasons.  When Caroline woke up and saw her brother in the bed she got so mad that he shared her turn.  She told me she hoped she had a bad dream the following night on "his" night.  I love sibling love.
Here is Caroline at the art show at her school with her cool fish painting.  
Roy Austin's depiction of me at his Mother's Day program at school.  I love my hands and feet.  He was sad because he messed up on my left hand and gave me 6 fingers:(

Here is the sweet gift his teachers made me.  I love it!  


One of his teachers taught the class how to sing "Jesus Loves Me" in Mandarin.  He calls it "Mexican".

I got this app that switches faces in pictures.  Here is Roy Austin and me at his Mother's Day program:)

This is my favorite switch!  Check out Roy in the green vest....CREEPY!!!!

My three blessings on Mother's Day morning.  I need some advice on anti-frizz cream for sweet Caroline.  She loves wearing her hair down but I'm afraid with that thick, curly hair we might have a Gilda Radner issue.


Roy Austin's newest obsession.  His cousin, Michael, sent him a special package with these prizes earlier this week.  He loved this mask at first, but now he's a little scared.  So is Mommy!  Do any local Charlotte friends want a Darth Vader mask?  Don't worry, the giver has already given me permission:)  She didn't want it either!

G'Day Mate!  Caroline the morning of her Australia presentation.    She was very excited!

Lately, preschool has worn this boy out.  He starts acting SO cranky around 4:00 and falls asleep.

Yesterday I couldn't find him and saw a heap of blue blankets on the couch.  I uncovered them to see this sweet face.  I could eat this guy up!
And speaking of eating up....check this little lady out!


She is my little shadow all morning long.  Lately she loves to help me in the kitchen.  Love those teeth!

I loved these Donna! It IS funny the pictures we take on our phones and forget about. Just yesterday I realized I had 300 plus pics and video's on my phone. Over 100 of them were from Jane just snapping pic and video's at random. Funny.

I love the book idea! $ to read it good! I'll be doing that one too!

RA sharing Carol's turn in FUNNY! You're a good momma!

LOVE the Mother's Day gift from RA's teachers!

Loved, loved, loved all of these. Some of them are so funny....especially the ones where you switched the faces. I just lol when I see them. The one with Charlotte hugging Caroline....maybe she thinks it's Barney?!! Sorry! Also, about Caroline's frizzy hair, just try a tad of coconut oil. It might help. Thanks for all these. I'll show Daddy....we're about to leave for DC, and then tomorrow to India!! Gulp!
