The February Miscellaneous File!

Except for this first photo!

Peanut: We're ready for your arrival!!!

Your brothers and sister have been counting down the days for the last few weeks and can hardly wait for this weekend to pass! And your papi and I are ready to see you, too... :)

So the rest of these photos are mostly from the miscellaneous file in my February photos... enjoy!

One afternoon Diego brought home this large piece of paper from school where they'd been drawing their outlines... he and Candi had lots of fun continuing to draw!
One of the finished products!

I have had this silly string bath soap for... probably 3 or 4 years. And we had NEVER used it! So... when Candi was bathing the other night, I totally doused her bathtime silly string... she loved it. I plan on being rid of silly string bath soap in the next month, if possible... :)

The boys have reading time that they have to complete for school every day and usually I read with Diego. One afternoon I came into the house to find that their dad had already got them started doing their reading, all sitting on one couch, and the two oldest keeping tabs on Diego to make sure he wasn't inventing words! It was great... good job, Joel! ;)

This is why all the kids love our director -- and why we do, too! These moments are so important, Bill... thanks for taking time to be a "grandpa!"

Leo and Candi enjoyed pushing one another around, too! Leo is such a little man... he was giving the lady a ride...

... and then the inevitable happened! :)

The little girl on the left is Samuel and Szabina's daughter, Panka. I was watching Mili for a couple hours for Jenna the other day and when we walked out on our porch and she saw Panka, she literally squealed with delight! It's a lot of fun to see how much joy they take in just touching one another's hair... ;)

The rest of these photos are from a Tuesday night dinner with just our family. We had grilled barbecue chicken sandwiches and for some reason the photos and faces this night were just funny... so I thought I'd give you a glimpse of dinner at our house (which is usually a VERY talkative and drawn-out affair... ;).

Joel's piece of chicken was quite grande and the kids were in awe that he could fit a bite into his mouth!

Maybe too large a bite, darling dearest husband of mine??? :)

[check out Diego's face!]

Diego balancing his sandwich on his hand...

Aron obliterating his sandwich [in typical Aron fashion with food all over himself, the table, and the floor!]...

And Candi [not very lady-like, but then again who really cares at this point?!?] chowing down on her piece of chicken!

We are so thankful for these children that God has blessed us with and we are thankful for your prayers that support us as we try to raise them according to His Word and with His love! We are looking forward to Peanut joining the crew and watching His hand continue to work in our lives and the lives of these young ones...! Please continue to pray for Peanut's birth and the adjustments it will bring in our lives! Thanks... :)
