Keeping busy...

This summer has been fairly relaxed, with the kids finding ways to entertain themselves most days. Because I am so very pregnant and it has been so hot we have stayed pretty close to home all summer. Some days are easier than others, though. 
Today Kellie was having a rough time being the only girl around here. The boys are mostly pretty good about including her, but there is only so much "princess and glitter" that the boys will tolerate before they start kicking her out of their games. Kellie is resourceful though and has found a mostly willing playmate in Levi, who is still a little young to realize he shouldn't like playing "girl stuff." So Kellie has made Levi her "baby" and is thoroughly enjoying mothering him. She wraps him up, sings to him, lays him down for naps and has taught him how to cry if he wants something. It really is pretty cute. Here's the two of them, as Kellie is rocking "her" baby, trying to get him to sleep. 

Here's the other boys, well, just being boys. 

I love them!
