Great Grandma Jean Died :(

Great Grandma Jean (my grandma) passed away.  It was really sad, but only because she was such an AMAZING grandma and I will miss her.  

Emmy broke her leg Monday and then on Tuesday we got a cast put on.  Look at that? Isn't that little cast shoe the saddest thing you've ever seen? It's SO SMALL!!  

We went that night to eat with cousins at All Star Grill.  (Ang drove down with Jesse and Jocelyn for the funeral on Wednesday.)  Poor Emmy had to sit out on the fun.  

 She was pretty chipper though...

 The boys got along great.

 So did the girls!!

 Emmy LOVES her "BaPa"  We are so sad he has to leave for a month at a time--but so glad when he's home for a whole month in between!

 Here's the whole group.  Poor Sydney.  My kids took up the granparents' lap space because Emmy has a broken leg and Tessa's 2 months old so Sydney was not happy to be plopped down.  Eli was just grumpy over photos and he struggled the most of all of mine with Grandma Jean passing.

 Here are the girls.  I have a big gut still and I hate nursing bras.  They are NOT flattering.  Oh well!

 I cropped my gut out of this one.  No way to do it without cutting mom out.  Sorry mom! Daughters shot!?

We miss you grandma Jean, and love you.  Give grandpa and Jesse all our love!!

Emmy's Leg

My darling little baby girl broke her leg.  She was jumping with Dora on the trampoline and Emmy fell... broke her leg.  Poor thing!! Here she is in her splint.  

 Dora is so cute.  When I took a photo of Emmy, she wanted to be in one...

 Emmy loves her dad, even when she's feeling crappy.

 Papa brought her a new kitchen toy he had found at the resale shop so she'd have something to do while sitting around.

 Poor little pea with her daddy.

Tessa at Two Months...

I love this squishy little baby!  She is such a happy little girl. 

 Love her big blue eyes.  You know, those eyes the nurse said were brown?!

 Dora LOVES LOVES LOVES this little baby.  She is so happy to be with her, entertain her, love her, squeeze her, etc.  She helps out all the time.  She hugs her, helps me with her bottles, bringing diapers, disposing of diapers, and on and on.

 I LOVE LOVE LOVE this photo.  My tiny angels.  Love my little girls SO SO SO much.

Lupe Tortilla

We love Lupe Tortilla!  Dora play

Miscellaneous Catch Up

We have been having fun around here.  Whit bathed all four kids in the big tub one night! Unfortunately the pics I had with Tessa in them didn't really turn out.  

 Love my sudsy angels!

 Goofball, right before she broke her leg...

 I finally cut her bangs--they were looking a little shaggy!

 Dora is such a beautiful little angel!!

 Love that baby!

 Emmy found Eli's old spiderman costume... she insisted on wearing it!

 Love LOVE LLLLLOOOOOVVVVEEE! This little angel!

Happy St. Patrick's Day--a little early

This is really early--and I took these even earlier.  But I am glad I did!  I had my mom there to help get the kids ready before Eli had to go to school one morning and I got these done before Emmy broke her leg and couldn't wear her leggings!! So, a win!!

Look at my cuties! 

 Eli did a great job holding Tessa!!

 I think this next one is my favorite...

 Tessa was not as happy to be passed around.  Poor Dora!
