About a year ago this trend was super popular on TikTok so we subjected Fireball to it then (right). Once her video became a year old I realized we should subject Potato to it too.
She was a week old when we did it to her and he was two weeks old. TJ was the squisher in both.

Have to start them early on the Jedi Arts.
As you can see from the video, she loves getting right into it. (I blame facebook for the poor quality of the video.)

The advantage of a big family is that there’s a lot of people looking out for the tiny one, especially on her birthday.

Since we’re in a bit of catch-up mode I think I’ll show off a group shot and leave it at that for now.
With TJ being a senior now one has to take advantage of these shots when one can get them.

With the blog in sort of catch up mode perhaps we’ll highlight some pictures from their birthdays without dedicating a post per kid.
That, and I don’t think Redflare grabbed pictures from every birthday we’ve missed on the blog since we last posted something. :p
There has been some gift giving along the way though, like a painting made by Little Miss for TJ:
Can’t write about the start of school without highlighting the whole group in a picture!

Time continues to move forward, and our eldest started senior year this year.
At this point it’s almost over… but 2020 has proven to be… well, quite the long year already. I think he feels it that way too. He’s ready, and he makes us proud.

Right before Christmas break our family was accosted with a robot baby.
TJ had to adopt one for the weekend for a class.
More advanced than a ‘flour bag baby’ or “egg baby” but a heck of a lot less advanced than the Batman Beyond episode with robo babies.
If you’re curiuos, he aced it. Many a sleepless night through that weekend, but he aced the project.

We’re getting there! Halloween pictures are a go!
If you can’t tell, Superman is Thanos, I’m Gandalf, TJ is Spiderman, Newbie is a sloth, Little Miss is a dark fairy/angel, and Thunderer is a “puppy” (Scooby Doo was the only way we could pull that one off.)
TJ went and coordinated costumes with his girlfriend too. She went as Silk.

Behold!
My teens at rest at the park while the little ones play.
