Let in the Good, block the Bad

Yesterday was a tiring and a little bit frustrating for many reasons. I finally got the kids ready for bed and right before we were going to say prayers, Molli did something (I don't remember what) and I just said, "Okay, just go to bed. I'm done."

Off she went to her room crying. I left Gage's room with Daxlee on the floor to get something. As I did, I started to hear the most wonderful sound. I grabbed my video camera and went into his room followed by, a now laughing, Molli. I've never seen Daxlee laugh this hard before and would be lying if I said I have never seen Molli and Gage make the faces they did at the end - that's a regular occurrence.

It was just such a great way to end a long and unappreciated day. It's funny that such a terrible day could produce such a wonderful moment.

Looks like they certainly inherited their mom's face. :)

I was watching this while I was holding Addy; needless to say...she thought it was funny too. She was laughing about as hard as Daxlee. It was so funny.

Ok that video was pretty adorable. I think i will show it to Parker to get him excited for his "Baby SIsta." I love the pics of your kids sleeping below. It is very precious but also pretty funny at the same time. Loved seeing your cute fam. When are you moving back to Cleveland?

P.S. Gage looks so handsome in his little coat and tie in you family pic. I love it.
