Outside! (You have to sing it like Petula Clark sings Downtown.)

by Leslie

Yeah, we went there yesterday. Outside.

It felt pretty good. We’ve been inside too much, lately.

Oh, slide!

How we missed you!

Oh, look! It’s Rico. Suave. (I call her that. Just like that.)

Fun fact: Rico is the evil cat we couldn’t catch from the How I Ended Up With Seventeen Kittens video! You’ll be glad to know that she has since been caught and fixed. She’s not evil anymore. We loved that right out of her.

Now she loves us. Especially Bee.

That jacket Bee is wearing? It’s been around as long as this blog has. Julia wore it in the first picture I ever posted to Flickr nearly six years ago. I can’t see Bee in that jacket without seeing Lucy and Julia in it, too. I love that jacket. That jacket is sisterhood. It’s the Sisterhood of the Traveling Jacket (except it doesn’t travel). (Actually, I’ve never seen the traveling pants movie, so maybe this jacket isn’t that at all, but it’s fun to spoof movie titles.)

Peek-a-boo! Lucy!

Okay, question: What color is Lucy’s hair? It’s not a trick question. I’m really asking. What color is it? Okay, maybe it is a trick question because no one knows. We can’t get a consensus on it. Blonde? Red? Brown? Chameleon hair? Lucy feels that it’s orange, so we just say, “Sure!”

Sadly, I cannot give you a definitive answer on the color of Julia’s eyes either. They used to be blue. Very, blue. Very, very blue! But now?

Um. Green? I don’t know. What color is that?

Bee’s are brown. Definitely. For now.

Lucy’s are blue. You can’t see them in that picture. I just really wanted to show you that picture.

I have a fall jacket that has been around since my oldest 1st wore it when she was 2 (she will be 18 in August)

How I loved seeing her younger sisters in it.

Her younger brother well Daddy might have a bird if I put our son it it…..

LOVED this post and all the great photos of your adorable girls! What a blessing they are. I love the jacket that made it thru each child. That is so very special and sweet! Lucy’s hair is peachy…Julia’s eyes look like sand and sea and Bee is just so cute!
