Kristina is no longer the baby anymore....sniff, sniff. She seems so big now. Here she is playing dress up outside....
Kristina reminds us of Grandma Colleen. We think she looks like her-what do you think Grandma? And she's developing a personality to match-always cheerful and everyone's friend.
Kate is the most smiley baby we've had, but I have yet to capture it on camera! Sad! She smiles ALL the time: when she's finished eating(of course), when she hears one of the girls' voices, or when she's just "hangin' out". I don't believe in the "it's just gas" business. Do you smile when you have gas? I don't think so. My babies smile because they're happy. What a love bug she is. Here are some pictures we've captured-for the Grandmas and Grandpas. We give lots of extra smooches on these kids just for you.
Just like our Magelsen girls....only minus the enormous head. One of our good friends came by the other day to see her and commented on the fact that when I told her on the phone that Kate looks just like the other girls, she envisioned a big head, but was pleasantly surprised at the fact that Kate's head isn't that big. 35th percentile, baby! All the others were 90th. But she does carry on the crazy hair tradition:

I can't stand the belly button thingy-any one with me on that? It gives me the willies when I have to clean it. I'm always glad when it falls off.
Rachel and Brooke have been little fishies this summer:

Catching a fish with some random guy:
Just kidding, Delvin.....thanks for entertaining the girls.
Thank you to everyone for your gifts, phone calls and visits. I have a stack of thank-you cards to send, so don't think I've forgotten you all. We are blessed to be surrounded by such great friends and family. Now I'm off to assess the damage that was done while I posted this. Wish me luck!

1. love Kate's hair! 2. As for Kristina being like Grandma Colleen - I hope this trend continues. Maybe she'll actually like me... :) 3. can't wait to see you in a week!
You have really cute adorable kids! I bet you love them so much.
She's adorable...of course. We would expect nothing less. Glad you are surviving 4 children. What a woman!
I want to squish baby Kate! Okay..and all of the girls!!! I can't wait to see you all tomorrow!! Love ya suga'!
Thanks for putting up some new pics! I can't imagine how tired and busy you are. I think about you often but don't want to bug you with a phone call. Kate is so precious. I am with Mary - I want to squish her too! And Kristina, and Brooke, and, well, I don't think Rachel would let me, but you get the idea! I'm glad you're handling 4. It sounds so overwhelming to me and I am so proud of you! You're such a great mom.
What an adorable little girl!! I wish I could see you guys soon!
I hope my comment about not having a big head like her sisters wasn't offensive in some way. . .she's darling and so were all the other girls, big heads and all!!! Well, you keep having the girls and we'll keep having the boys. . .apparently that's the way it's going to be for our families!! Delvin was so happy to run into Shawn and the girls at Kayak point, Brooke called me from Delvin's phone and I was so confused!!! Hope things are still going well with 4 kids! I love all the pics!!!
It's amazing that you even have time to post anything! It's so fun to see all the pics... it makes me miss you even more, but I'm glad you post them. I love the crazy hair... at least your kids have hair! The girls are getting so big! Ærowyn misses Brooke. We've put tons of pics up on our website if you want to visit and I'm sure Brooke would especially like the pics in the Erroreco Zoo album.
I will of course check back later for more great stories and adorable pics!!!
Oh yeah, I'm glad you didn't have her in the car :)
