It’s that time of year again! Baby Bug simply cannot help himself, he MUST wear big brother’s gear .

This week marks an important event …. Tater’s 9th Birthday!  I’ll write more about it later, but in an effort to keep this WW post as wordless as possible I’ll leave it at that .

Tater is 9 - Yay!

That’s right, this little guy will be turning 5 very soon

For all of you who have wondered what it looks like when 6 boys sit down to eat . 

Incidentally, this wall will be painted very soon

Happy wordless wednesday everyone, or in my case, not so wordless!  Many of you are aware that my “baby” is growing up.  I have very mixed emotions about that these days and I’ve held my piece as the moodiness began, even when he grew 2 inches since Christmas (and outgrew all of his clothes - grrr), but reality is setting in a little more each day.  I have been noticing over the last couple weeks that his voice is beginning to change (I’m just noticing it now, but that doesn’t mean it hasn’t been going on for a while) and tonight we took him to Jr. High orientation (they don’t start here until 7th grade thank goodness). 

This is my boy (not a great picture):

I have to show this next photo since it includes all three of the oldest boys: CJ is 12, Salesman is 9 and Tater is 8 and yes, there IS that much of a height difference (for the moment anyway):

This is what you look like when you KNOW you’re really somethin’!

Coloring eggs is definitely an Easter tradition around here!  The kids love it and frankly it makes Easter Breakfast a lot easier (add some homemade or storebought rolls and yum!).  So, here’s my artistic half dozen boys coloring a few dozen eggs

(High Concentration)

(Little Brother likes to throw the eggs into the dye)

(Sir Lion is so proud of his creation)

(How Monkey colors eggs - most of the photos are of him laying on the table one way or another.  CJ is very serious about egg dying.)

We had a lot of fun playing outside in the yard on Saturday!  The little boys found an old fishing pole and I couldn’t help but think that it looked like they were fishing in the grass .

Happy Wordless Wednesday!!!
