Our LIFE Group ladies ventured out to the zoo with all the kiddos the other day. Funny thing… it was the person withOUT kids that suggested it. 
Thanks Melissa for a fun idea!!! All 11 kids had a GREAT time!
Here’s some pictures of our darling children. Next time we’ll have to get some pictures of the ladies.
Samuel has a new room!! Well, it’s a shared room, but at least he has a corner now!
I’m not sure our youngest, Samuel, is going to make it to his first birthday. I think our daughter is trying to get rid of him. I think she loves him, she talks to him and about him often. But she has also done things to make us think otherwise. When he is in his swing she likes to push it beyond what it was meant to go. She likes to poke his eyes. She threw his favorite pacifier into the garbage disposal (unknown to Erin until she ran it). She has picked him up and dropped him repeatedly (and tried to pick him up many other times). She has taken his blanket, covered his face with it and laid on him. She has put a marble, a pretzel, a piece of pizza, and other things into his mouth. I’m just not sure if Samuel is going to make it because his older sister is out to get him.
This is Ethan’s way of saying this room is off limits for Alayna. Now every door in our house, even Alayna’s own room, has this sign. Even the outside doors. It’s Alayna’s catch 22 - can’t go in, can’t go out.
We went to the Midwest Homeschool Convention in Cincinnati a couple weeks ago. It was crowded!! Besides the fact that they scheduled the conference to begin at the exact same time as opening day for the Cincinnati Reds (~10,000 convention goers + ~40,000 baseball fans = no available parking + lots of frustration!) it was a nice trip. Samuel enjoyed the big bed, Erin and I took the floor. ;)
When your Daring Child is also your Clumsy Child that child will invariably be your Injury-Prone Child.

What a cute bunch of pics! I don’t blame you for not attempting to put the 3 babies in the top posed picture – that may have been trickey. It looks like the kids had a great time, especially with the guinea pigs.
