Whaaatchya doin?

We've been busy in the Hermiz household...good and blessed, but busy. Nearly every day I think about various things I should journal/blog about, but I never get around to it. My goal is to blog once each week...I feel like that's adequate and realistic, which is a good combo.

We recently got a new camera (thank you credit card points!), so I'll just share some recent photos.

Getting her hands wet....

...realizing that's not enough; she must get her hair wet as well!

Thanks to her diligence, she doesn't need a bath tonight!

Getting our garden bed ready

He lost his first upper tooth! Woohoo!

It's so precious the way he carries her all around...although he may be getting a bit too confident. And Adalyn there...she's still recovering from the bath she gave herself.

Just taking a little sip of her :)

Oops!

Luke wrote this letter to Ellie. Melt my heart :)

Adalyn was making her smile when I took this photo.

One of my three beauties (Luke insists he is not beautiful; he's handsome ;)

Luke volunteered to put the toilet paper away...

Luke wanted all the kids at the table together :) I love how much they love each other (most of the time)

Ellie's AWANA ceremony. She is no longer a cubbie...next year she will be a kindergarten Sparky!

Luke finished his AWANA Sparks program. I can't believe he'll be a first grader this fall!

Even with that crazy, messy hair, she is such a beauty.



4/28/13 first food -- egg yolk! (since I haven't glanced at her baby book since she was born, I'll just write the date here;)

Where she learned this pose, I have no idea...but it definitely makes me nervous.

Aaah! She's so pretty!

My heart swells :)

I think the background in this picture should be a vast field of wildflowers...but the cars, house and trashcan will have to do ;)

I finally got an action shot without it being blurry!

Refusing to smile for the camera
