Still No Baby

The time is 5:37pm and 'He' is still in his comfy and cozy home of nine months. My mom was induced at about 9 this morning. Hopefully the birth will be soon. Please keep praying. :)

Here at home we have both sets of grandparents, Uncle Pat and 'The Cousins' in addition to all of us. The house is filled with us crazies trying to entertain ourselves while in totally and utter anticipation. I have a speaker-phone setup in our family-room ready for the moment of The Call. Whenever the phone rings the house turns into an erupting volcano of people running from all over the house to the family-room.

Baby is coming today!

Lil' D will arrive today. PLease keep my mom and newest brother in your prayers.

Thank you!

Fun Times - Family Wedding

Recently Mike's cousin was married! Mike and a few of the kids attended the wedding, which was beautiful. That evening the kids were able to hang out with the Ohio cousins...

Surprise!

Who Needs a TV?

Earlier this week, Molly Grace and Aidan decided they would like their little stuffed penguins washed. So in the washing machine they went! I had no idea they would sit in front of the washer, the entire cycle, trying to catch a glimpse of their little buddies. I'm going to have to remember this form of entertainment in the future...it's easy, quiet, cheap, and I believe there has got to be at least a little educational value there somewhere, don't you think?!

One More Picture...

Moira had a great time at the Spring Formal not only with her friends, but with her cousin Owen as well.

Enjoying Spring Weather

With the snow finally gone, it's so much fun to visit Pamprin Park!
Erin checks out the grass. What a new discovery after ALL that snow this winter....

...and she learns how to sign "grass"

We were just a little bit early for the spawning trout.

More Easter Pictures

Erin must have been napping...cause she's the only one missing. Here are the kids with the cousins: Owen, Molly Grace, Bridget, Margaret, Colleen, Eileen, Emmett, Moira. And in front: Teresa, Conal, Aidan
