We're so glad when Daddy comes home...even if he is sleeping.

Jonathan worked some night shifts in the ER last week.  When he got up after a brief nap, he came out in the living room and laid down on the couch. I told him to just go back to bed, but he said he would just "rest" out in the living room with us.  So the girls took over.  He was a pretty good comatose babysitter.

I don't think he minded the back scratch from Sami.  He's trained her well.
"Oh, pretty Daddy."  
And my friend Mary Ann is right.  I should post more pictures of myself with the girls.  But the truth is I don't have very many of them.  I am usually not wearing make-up and my hair is in a ponytail, so I tell Jonathan not to take pictures of me.  And when he does take pictures, I am reminded that I still want to lose a few pounds and I really should use eye liner, among other things.  So I avoid pictures.  But I shouldn't.  This time is so precious and goes by so quickly.  I know that one day these pictures will be treasures and I'll probably look back and say "At least I wasn't all gray," or some other silliness.  So here's a picture I took of Sami and me. And I'm going to start letting Jonathan take more pictures of me, especially when I have make-up on.

Adorable! That is why I try to post pictures of myself on my blog. It is not my favorite thing either.

Yay for a Chrissy picture! I don't care if you're not wearing makeup! Preston can testify that I rarely "get ready" these days and I don't even have kids yet!

Actually I think that you look very pretty! And I adored the "Pretty Daddy" picture!
