Favorite Picture Wednesday


There is something about old pictures that I love.  I wish I still had an old Polaroid camera.  To me, this picture is symbol of the love these sister's have for each other.  As much as they drive each other crazy at times, they also love each other unconditionally.  Over the past few months, I have noticed how Lena and Nana have taken Boo under their wings.  They play with her, chase her, look at books with her, and try include her when is something she can do.  It is truly amazing how strong a bond sisterhood is.  Hopefully, they will remember this when they are teenagers!

It's a ....

Does anybody know how to take care of a boy?  Number 4 isn't like the other children.    

We decided a long time ago to start enter the world of blogging.  However, it has taken us (mostly me, Papa), time to figure out what to say, etc.  I hope that in a way this becomes a journal of sorts, mostly since I stink at writing stuff down that I wanted to remember. 

I want to introduce to my family.  This is my beautiful wife; Shel.  She loves us and takes wonderful care of us.  Thankfully, she gets to stay home and work harder than I do at work. 

Next comes our oldest Lena.  She is in kindergarten, and currently getting older by the minute.  She has grown up way to fast, and continually amazes us with her desire to learn more.  By the way, our school district needs all day kindergartens!

Nana is our preschooler, whom I know wishes that she were able to go to the big school like her sister.  She too loves to learn, and continually makes us smile with her smile.  She will play by herself or with stuffed animals and loves using her imagination.

Last but not least, is our youngest child Boo.  She really wants her parents to get her a dog, but we need to stabilize our lives a little more before introducing animal into the family.  She loves to play in the storage bin beneath the oven and make her sisters play with her.

I am Papa Bear and love my job as a Radiologic Technologist.  I work at a world-class hospital, along side some amazing doctors, nurses, and patients.  More importantly though, I love my family.  They are pretty fun, amazing, and help me remember what is truly important in life.
