I just have a few things to say

1. I am pretty sure there is no other smell in the world that is better than a baby right after a bath. Why is it that nobody else smells like that? I use the same soap on my bigger kids (yes I still use baby soap on them, I like to live in my own little delusional
world where my kids will never grow up. Or leave me. Or kiss boys. Or girls. Ever), and they still don't smell the same. This baffels me. I think this is why I have so many kids. They get big and loose that new baby smell, and that, my friends, is when I know it's time to have another baby. Or two. It could also be te fact that we just happen to produce the most beautiful babies in the history of mankind. Or maybe it could be that I am just certifiably insane. Either way.
2. Laundry is the second best smell in the world. How can something so dreadful smell so good?
3. Jace feed the littles this morning (all five of them), and let me sleep in. I like him. A lot.
4. There was a point in my life that I said I would never wear flare jeans, because "they are ugly."  Now they are a go-to style of jeans for me. I also said I would never wear skinny jeans, because, "they are ugly." They are now a staple in my wardrobe. This is partially due to the fact that I pretty much live in boots from september-march. Speaking of boots, I just got a new pair of over-the-knee boots that I am in love with. I think I will marry them. I digress, sorry.  I also said I would never wear leggings, because "they are so ugly."  Wouldn't you know that I now also own a pair of leggings. Or two. I mostly wear them around the house, but I own them, and wear them. And like them.
5. When Kambell is being sweet, I just want to bottle him up, and keep him forever. When he is acting like a two year old, I kind of want to sell him on ebay. For 79 cents.  Or throw him out the window. But I would never do that. Because that would be wrong.
6. I try to keep my house clean, I really do. Most of the time it seems futile. This makes me cranky!
7. After having a baby, your body is never the same. Some things are bigger (not he RIGHT things), some things are smaller (once again...not the right things), and some things are just softer. This also makes me cranky.
8. My kids are SO worth this bigger-smaller-softer body.

That is all I have to say. So glad I got that off my chest...litterally :)

Sleepy Head

So this has been a rough week for the Martin kids! Payton, Kam, and Presley all got croup this week! It was awful. And scary. And I don't want to talk about it! Luckily they are all on the mend, but Miss Press sure was tired today! She fell asleep in her bumbo. That little round face is so scrumptious, I just want to eat her up! The end.


Guess who?

Just for fun. These are post-bath so they aren't wearing their bracelets (for those of you who don't know, Presley always wears a purple bracelet, and Reese always a red bracelet). I am making it easy for you, they are easy to tell apart in these pictures.

Fancy

These girls and their fancy ensambles crack me up! And Riley and her poses...I have no words :)

I think I might be in trouble!

Riley put together this little getup and told me, "We are pretending we are rock stars!"



Snow Angel

This is the first time Kam would let me put on his snow pants! He wanted to go out and play with the girls when we had the last snowstorm, but he was not about to let us put his snow pants on. So he was a sad little boy because he didn't get to go out. Yesterday, when R and P went out to play in the snow, he was ready to give those funny pants a try. He just looked so cute all bundled up. You know me, I couldn't resist taking a few pictures :)

Kam

I absolutely adore my girls, but I don't know what I would do without this silly little man!

A few random pictures from my camera.
