Big Sister; Little Brother; Big Brother, Little Sister


No, I did not acquire two more children overnight! Cousins Grace and Max came to visit us this past weekend. I'm going to go ahead and admit it, Sarah and I were completely overwhelmed more than once with 4 children under the age of 3 in one house. And more than once, I declared my own mother absolutely CRAZY for having 3 children in 3 years. As I was holding Max and Juliet begged for me to pick her up, it hit me. John (my older brother) was actually 3 months YOUNGER than Juliet is when I was born. (Did you follow that?? There are 12 months and 11 days between us.)

I'm going to write more later about our "Ikea Day", but for now here is just one picture of our darling children as they were bribed heavily to sit still. (And just so you know, "Ikea Day" is a new phrase we've decided we'll reserve for the absolute worst of those "if it could go wrong, it will" type of days."
