New Pictures

Here are some more pictures:

Sweet, sweet Basil. (And that basket of laundry on the couch is a good indication as to why I haven't been blogging lately!)

We were driving somewhere and I turned around and saw Pyper with this hat on. I think one of the older girls handed it to her, and she put it on. She was pretty excited about it.

Love that tiny little body on the left and that handsome man on the right!

Got Basil's one-month pictures taken. Even though there's a reflection on the frame's glass, you can see how sweet it turned out. I love it!

And we have all four girls on the wall now.

Claire, "babysitting" Basil for me while I make dinner.

She sure is a Barney girl, isn't' she?!?

Summer, seeing my arm peeling from a sunburn: "Why is it doing that?" Me: "Well, when you sunburn, you just tan. But when I get sunburned, it kills my skin, and then peels off." Summer, worried: "Are you getting very, very old now?" (now in tears) "I don't want you to die!"

Looking in the dishwasher: "I thought there was a black leaf in there, but it's just a craisin!"

"I wish my head was in my mouth so I could see what my tongue was doing."

Rhett, after putting the girls to bed, then having to go down to their room again to tell them to stop talking: "I don't want to hear one more word out of here." Claire, innocently, and just asking to clarify, "How many words, dad?"

Claire told me she had "something" in her underwear. I asked her if she had an accident. She said, "No. I had a tooter and poop came out. Shooted right in there."

Me: "Stick your finger in your ear and see if you can get some of that ear wax out." Claire: "Nooooo. Because we have to lick it and that's how we wash it."
