Numbers

I'm slow and behind on my blog. I don't want to be; in fact, I constantly compose posts in my head planning on them coming out and landing on the Internet. Alas, between fighting fatigue, depression, the housework war, the lack of time for myself and for my husband and I, AND taking care of my babies, I just haven't made time to write. 

Lemme catch you up. Since we need to cover about 7 months in one blog post, we need a theme or set of rules so I don't ramble or run out of steam. Oooh! Numbers! I love math. (I felt like such an outcast expressing that the other day at a Relief Society activity, but it is so true.) You'll catch onto and figure out my plan very quickly.

Vaterlaus family update:

• Grace is 7 months old

Cool! Good summary! Now for some pictures! 

All the Vaterlaus girls in their jammies! Starlet is so good at being disgusted at papparazi. 

Nothing is safe from Grace anymore. She is FAST.

I can't believe she fell asleep like this! 

Both my girls chomping on apples. 

I was taking pictures of Grace and Starlet wanted a turn. I love those smiley, twinkley eyes! 

"Sisters, sisters!"
