Mady's face is SO broken out!! I thought it was just a bad case of baby acne, but I am not so sure anymore. She now has it on her ears, head, neck and upper chest and back. I am probably going to take her to the dr tomorrow just to make sure.

It is a lot worse when she gets hot or mad (which is why you can see it in these pictures...it was hot outside!). I have been cleaning her face with a warm washcloth after she eats because she is a VERY messy eater :) Other than keeping her face clean and not letting her put her face against my skin when she is eating (so she doesn't get too hot), I don't think there is much more I can do for it.


Kids at the Park

I braved the frustrations and took the kids to the park for some pictures this morning. The bribes to get them to sit worked for the older kids (there was a playground I told them they could play on if they let me take the pictures, but if they did not cooperate it would be too hot), but not so much for Andrew! The sun was behind the boys, yet Isaac could not open his eyes. AMAZINGLY, though, we got on the playground - in the bright sand - and he was able to look in the direction of the sun with NO problem whatsoever. Funny how that works!
Here are the pictures I got of them. Not the best, but they are all together!

Pics of the Kids

I was taking pictures of Mady and Andrew wanted to join in. Then Bryce came in and saw us taking pictures and wanted to have his taken with Mady. Then Isaac...then Caleb. They wanted pictures taken alone with Madeleine and as much as I want pictures of ALL of the kids together, I just wasn't feeling that brave this evening. Mady doesn't stay in good moods long before she is ready to sleep again and I was already pushing my luck. Some of the pictures are SO cute though!

Lots of pictures tonight - ENJOY!
