…Daddy’s the coolest “babysitter” ever.
I love that man.
Snowman Saturday

The snow was just right this weekend for snowman-building! So, Luke took the kids outside, and they made their first snowman of the season.

I must confess, one of the things I like most about taking all four kids to the store with me is the way some people react when they see our little circus in the grocery cart. I absolutely love the older men and women who will stop to ooh and ahh over the kids. Sometimes they’ll talk about how many kids they raised, and sometimes they’ll just say, “Wow, you’re a busy mom!” or something of that variety. But they always say it with a smile. Which, in turn, makes me smile.

Let’s go racing!

This is the first year that Grace made a car for the AWANA Grand Prix, which was held this past Wednesday. Here she is with some of her friends before the “big race.”
More friends!
Caleb and Hannah – friends! I’m thinking we should arrange a marriage between these two. They’d have a lot of fun together. How about it, Perrys?
And the girl of the hour! This is Gracie with her car and ribbon, after the race. *She doesn’t know it yet, but she actually got third place in speed. Someone made a mistake and gave the trophy to someone else. So they’re going to give her a trophy next Wednesday, I think.* Good job, Gracie Girl!
The Grace-Mobile. She decorated it all by herself!
So, next year Papa Liabenow is on the docket for helping make the Grand Prix car. We think it’ll be less stressful for us that way!

Yesterday, I was feeding Jaden a cereal/applesauce mixture when I needed to go administer some discipline for one of the girls. When I came back, this is what I found. Sweet Caleb thought he should help his brother finish his breakfast. I’m not sure how much breakfast he actually got in his mouth, though.
