Well, it's time once again for the monthly 12 on 12, a challenge to take 12 pictures of your ordinary life on the 12th of the month.
This month we happen to have our first major sickness of the winter. Alexander looks like this, isn't it sad? He is feeling better than a couple days ago though. And we discoverd a new wonder cure (at least it worked this time, so I guess that's not exactly proof that it's a wonder, but it's worth a try) Green Tea, dropped in the eyes for pink eye. We did it for Sophia at the first sign of pink, knowing that she had been exposed to pink eye, and after 2 days it was gone and never got any worse than a pink tinge. Alexander has been getting it a little longer, but I think his eyes are more effected by a cold than pink eye, but we've done the tea just in case.
This is the pretty Hawthorne tree in my front yard, pretty red berries.
Welcoming the pretty fall colors. This is the view out my bedroom window.
Arianna chilling in my bed, before she jumps up to say "see, see" so she can look at herself on the back of my camera. It made it difficult to actually take the picture, since she wanted to see it before it happened!
While I was fixing lunch Ari wanted to get a head start, so she took off her own clothes, pulled a chair over to her high chair and climbed on in.
and it paid off for her!
Pretty roses the kids picked and brought in for me.
Nothing like hiding in the pantry...
This is what was left after making and freezing 4 apple pies, and canning 2 quarts of apple sauce. More apples still to go, but that was all I could deal with right then.
This is how Faron get's the mowing done most of the time, can't leave anybody out.
Arianna in her cute pink dress and her camo rain boots. Hmmm does she have an older brother?
Sophia sipping from her "glass cup" curtousy of the local thrift store. Quite a thrill though.
Well, there you have it, another month's addition of 12 on 12.

Wow.. you peeled a lot of apples..
Kids are sure growing fast, hard to believe they have changed so much in just one year.
you certainly did peel lots...craziness! Xander looks very sad. And Ari is looking more and more like you.
oh, and I really like blue teapot and red roses picture.
Poor Alexander! :(
I love the picture of Faron mowing the grass. When I look at your blog I want more and more kids. Fun!
That's awesome about the green tea! Poor Xannie, I hate to see him like that, it's so opposite of him. Ari looks older than last time I saw her! She is sooooooooooooo beautiful. Isn't the Hawthorne tree a good one? Phia and her fancy glasswear, what a chick she is!
