Just a few goofy pictures of my heathens.

They're swinging together, but the camera on my phone leaves a bit to be desired.

View attachment 3304 It's okay. It's just mashed potatoes.



Like I've said before, typically in this forum people need help and are dealing with painful things in their lives. I thought I'd take a second to make someone grin.

They're beautiful little 'heathens,' Matthew!

Thank you for sharing such marvelous gifts with us!

 

[Deborah13]

And grin I did and laughed, mashed potatoes!

Adorable kids... mashed potatoes and all! :D

 

[Matthew G]

Thank you very much. Kids are amazing. All 3 are in different stages, so we are in a 24/7 wave of WOW between our oldest pretending to be Avatar and Ariel the Mermaid, our second daughter putting her mom's sunglasses on upside-down and saying, "Look! Pretty!" and our son calling me "Ba Ba" because D is apparently a difficult little letter, and sampling everything on my plate and growling in satisfaction.

I sincerely hope that those of you out there with little ones get the chance to laugh and roll your eyes at yours as much as we do ours.

Thanks for sharing, they look like a lot of fun!
Kids are just amazing!

lol. i need to post pics of rosemary and her miracle of being born. her mother went into a coma briefly and they had to c section her out. it was a rocky situation for both autumn and rosemary. rosemary had a hole in the heart,lungs that filled with fluid and a thyroid that didn't want to work.

"Miracle" is definitely the right word. Praise the Lord! I would love to see some pictures!

autumn is alive due to a shunt that she has had since age 4, this shunt can break and it has to be replaced.

 

[jasoncran]

she was about 4lbs when she was born. the other child not shown that was at my house earlier. calls me papa cheese. Nathan and monica well taught her that. so when she hears me talk or knock and then my voice she will yell papa cheese and run to me and hug me.

 

[Matthew G]

That is just adorable! I bet you love hearing the Papa Cheese, though.

 

[jasoncran]

lol. theres a funny reason why i got that name.jaci never called me that. Nathan did when one day he saw me put cheese on cheezits and just about every thing i eat.he calls my house the cheese cave and has also said it need the cheese signal and like the batman show of the 60s with the spinning bat symbol to change scenes. i should have the spinning chunk of cheddar cheese. lol

 

[AirDancer]

She's beautiful, Jasoncran ... absolutely a miracle!

 

[jasoncran]

[AirDancer]
