*Beware... photo overload

In the midst of feeling like- life sucks at the moment or your being tested beyond what you think you can handle, I am always looking for the little things in life that can make me smile.  My kids... because without a doubt, they can and do make me smile- along with pulling my hair out but hey, we are focusing on the positive right now.

Anyone elses kid this flexible?!?  Try and do this move and you might end up in the ER.

Our little sick girl getting a breathing treatment.  We have been passing the same little bug around the house for the past month.

The look of - do you dare ask me to move??  No Sister, I do not dare ask you to move out of my spot that you stole while I was up getting you some milk.

 A perfect match- converse and her Sunday dress.

 A night out at Chili's.  If you can't locate us, check at the local Chilis and we will probably be there.

 A random and spontaneous need to do the wave.

 Having some fun at Laser tag. 

 Big brother reading to Sister and she isn't even paying attention.  Welcome to my world Aiden!!

 Morning kisses.  Nothing better!

 A lazy Sunday afternoon.

 The best Daddy/Papa attempting to paint my toenails after our car accident.

 and then attempting to paint Izzy's.  It takes an army right now to paint her nails.

A little taste of the puppy's tail.  Gross but whatever...

Is Milo as flexible as me??? 

 Fun times at Ian's (cousin) birthday party.

 Minding my business, folding laundry and I find this...

A little to scary first thing in the morning.  I hadn't even had my coffee yet!
She is up to something... and so is that puppy behind her...

 Standing on the couch while watching TV.  She is getting brave.

 Izzy made sure Yoda is comfortable and now she is unfolding all my hard work.

 A boy with his dog.  Sweet... until that said dog decides to get hyper and tear through the house like a mad man.

 Doing the happy dance when I was told I no longer had to use crutches. 

 Boxes= cheap toys and hours of fun for everyone.

 She is so proud of herself... she covered up her bulldog with the tiniest blanket she could find.

So, I don't know about you but these kids definitely put a smile on my face.  Our current troubles will pass and new ones are sure to come but I always need to remember to cherish these special moments.
