Sleeping Prince


There is something about a child sleeping. It always melts my heart. Landry is the type of kid that goes ninety to nothing. He plays HARD in life. Whatever he does he goes at it full force and whole hearted. It amazes me at how tough this little guy is. He goes until his little wheels fall off. Here he is all tuckered out. I love this little guy! He is so much fun and gives the best hugs. Love you Lanny Boy!

Fruitloop necklaces who doesn't love these?




Today I taught the kids a craft I often did as a kid. I can't believe my oldest is 9 and I have not done this with her yet. It was a huge hit with the 3L's. It cracks me up that cereal can bring so much joy! Luke has decided to save his. Lauren decided to eat all the red ones first and then do the green ones,etc. Lanny boy didn't even make it to tying it around his neck. He ate all of his before he could make a necklace. ha! I love the summer time.
