Kid Fluff

I'm having way too much fun with my new camera. Every once in a while I get the feeling that if I don't take lots of pictures, I'll forget what they're like, forget these stages they're going through. They grow up so fast I feel like I'm trying to catch time in a bottle.

Reagan just before his haircut. I love that I can actually capture the color of his eyes. With my old camera they were always red.

Right now Reagan is learning who he is. So far he's a kid who loves things like Dungeons and Dragons and Dr. Horrible.

Piper is my little mother, trying to take care of everyone. And she talks. All the time.

Bridget is trying so hard to assert her individuality and prove that she's as big and important as everyone else. Right now this is making her stubborn and a little bit of a bully. But she also loves with her whole heart and wants nothing more than to make her mommy and daddy happy.

Ciaran is advancing every single day. He repeats a ton. He says things like, "Oh, hi, Mommy!" and "What's up, Dude?" and he loves giving his little brother hugs and kisses.

Quinn loves giving everyone hugs and kisses. He is a serious little cuddle monster. He sings, he dances, and he likes to bounce on the couch. I wonder how he'll react when the new baby is in his cuddle spot.

Trying to hold on to kids is like trying to hold on to moonbeams. They change so fast, if you blink, you miss it. I think I'm going to go give each of them a kiss now.
