Life as Family of Five: December 2013
http://braithwaitblog.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 30, 2013. I guess it's a good thing I didn't make a New Year's resolution to blog more, eh? I know myself too well for that resolution stuff- I don't like to make promises I can't keep. The verdict is out on whether that makes me lazy and unmotivated or just a realist. I digress. But hey, sometimes you gotta to what you gotta do to move forward, yes? So with all that said here comes all the Christmas catch up. I just wasn't very proactive on the festivities, I guess. Something is serious...

Life as Family of Five: November 2012
http://braithwaitblog.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 26, 2012. My cousin put this on her FB and I just had to laugh because I can just so relate ;-). I say all this to say: despite how much I utterly fail at my role at home, I love all these messy little munchkins and want what's best for them with all my heart! I am thankful God's grace covers all my shortcomings! And then there are those good days. The ones that you really get. And it beckoned me out there. To enjoy these moments. And before we know it, this will be distant memory. As yo...

Thursday, September 27, 2012. Hannah Grace and Bennett are playing their first year of soccer this year and they are on the same team. They both actually seem to like it more than we thought they would! I would even say they both love it! They may not be the most, ahem. Skilled on the team, but hey they keep up with it, ya know! I took my cam the second week for some pics, soo. Getting the show on the road. I love this one! Nice form Hannah Gracie ;-). I guess the tongue is a sign of concentration? And a...

Life as Family of Five: August 2013
http://braithwaitblog.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 26, 2013. How is it that 7 years have passed since I became a mom, since this little pioneer changed everything ;-) I don't feel any more qualified to be a mom than I did on August 16th, 2006, but by the grace of God she is turning into a lovely little thing! Happy birthday sleepy head! Ready for school with her new backpack! Truth be told we actually got in a fight the morning of her birthday! Am I supposed to document those not so proud moments too? Opening a few presents from the family.

Sunday, December 30, 2012. Christmas Came and Went! Warning this may be a rambly one:). I suppose that does seem to happen every year, doesn't it? Our first Christmas in this house, and the season truly flew. We started Christmas morning with daddy reading from Luke 2. We have always made a point to start the day this way. All the littles and Gigi- clearly in "ah" of "say Christmas". Why do we always think that works? Everyone plus stink pot post random melt down. A guitar to learn with daddy! Oh so stly...

Life as Family of Five: Between Collecting Dust
http://braithwaitblog.blogspot.com/2013/12/between-collecting-dust.html
Saturday, December 14, 2013. Thanksgiving aside these picture are all of have captured on my "real" camera since birthdays! Just a few things between it sitting there collecting dust. So sad. I love taking pictures and miss it. writing too. Maybe someday time will allow more again. Rapunzel, Minnie, and Mario. Quite the crew! Can I just go on record saying I strongly disliked that Rapunzel wig. I mean, strongly. Minnie. This one was a real shocker (not :). You can't see from these pics but there were man...

Life as Family of Five: Thanksgiving
http://braithwaitblog.blogspot.com/2013/11/thanksgiving.html
Friday, November 29, 2013. So I'm skipping. well the whole season of fall pretty much. but hey let's come back to that, shall we? Because I was about to email these family pics from yesterday to-well- family- when I had the bright idea that I could just load them onto the blog. That is after all a major purpose of this silly thing isn't it? This was Ryan's third year doing the Turkey Trot with his dad. Pretty fun little tradition if ya ask me! Way to go guys! God is good. Always. Friday, November 29, 2013.

Monday, September 16, 2013. A Li'l But of Catching Up. I have to do it. I am resorting to a "clumped post". Sadie, you will have to forgive your mother pulling a total 3rd child maneuver on you and "clumping" your special 1st day of preschool pics in with a bunch of other smorgasboard ( let's not even go there with the fact that they are [gasp] cell phone pics! In other news. Mr.Injury has added a new one to the list. 1st "broken" bone even if it is just a good ol' fracture. What happened you ask? Speaki...

Saturday, January 26, 2013. 2013: A Fresh Start for a Kitchen. This is actually my second attempt at my 1st blog post of the new year. And it feels slightly odd kicking off my family journaling for the year with a post about our kitchen, but everything else at this point is so hodge-podgy, mentally, this is just an easy place for me to start! As I have mentioned we have been chipping away at several house projects and really none of them have actually been finished. Until now! Maybe even for good! Who kn...

Life as Family of Five: October 2012
http://braithwaitblog.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 31, 2012. From our little "punkins" to yours. Wednesday, October 31, 2012. Friday, October 26, 2012. I can't believe we closed on our house a month ago today already! I must confess I was completely delusional. In my mind I just knew I would have every box unpacked the 1st weekend and all the wallpaper down and paneling painted in. oh. say two weeks -give or take a couple days of course ;-). I have mentioned we moved into a 70s time capsule haven't I? 2 words: harvest. gold.). More to ...
