Gloria: Week 5

Lending a Helping Hand

Around our house JJ and I are often stressing the idea of our family being a team, working together to love and support each other, and to make our home a place we enjoy being. Leading up to Gloria's birth we gave Chase and Daniel more responsibilities around the house. Since Gloria's birth those respoonsibilities have included yard work. This week Daniel mowed the back lawn almost entirely by himself - pretty impressive for a 6-year-old. And both Chase and Daniel have been trained to safely prune unwanted branches.

What's in a Wardrobe?

Between all the hand-me-downs, our own bins of clothes, and the mass of pink garments from all those people who "couldn't help themselves" when they found out we had a new girl in the family, I have done lots of sorting through clothes to organize Gloria's closet.

Here is a look into the wardrobe of a girl named Gloria.

The View From Here

With Daniel at Kindergarten every morning,
Chase has had some extra bonding time with Gloria.

... and I think he likes it.
