These Kids

Ali: I almost teared up when I saw Simon's big grin at the end of your post . . . now who's leading the pack? I have been following you, your career, blog, and now social media goodies, since roughly 2006. We share the commonality of children on the autism spectrum, which if memory serves, is where I first linked to your name, all those years ago.

Anywho . . . "He's (Simon) come a long way, baby," as the saying goes. Kudos to you and yours; your cup truly runneth over. Wishing you all continued "cohesion" as your travel down the Path of Life together. Peace ;) {@}

Best part was what they want to be! Small suggestion - might be fun to do the same list of questions for you and Aaron :)

Love how brief and quick this is but still captures who they are. Legos, legos and more legos... gorgeous girls...love it!

I think I need a white wall. The lighting in my house is horrendous.

This is so awesome! Possibly the best blog post ever! I love your crew. As I mentioned on Facebook, I'm so excited to see your December Daily this year with your full home and all these kiddos' joyful experiences.

How lovely. My husband was part of two families coming together - 5 children in one household and even though he said it was always busy and manic he loved growing up with many brothers and sisters.

Gosh, how I miss all 5 of mine being little & under one roof.
Ali, they grow soooooooooooooooooooo fast. Cherish every second. One day, you will awaken & Anna will be asking for the keys to your car. Simon will graduate high school & you will find wrinkles in places they weren't before. Enjoy each & every moment. Its priceless.....

LOL at Simon's likes, namely "gorgeous girls"! Yup, he's definitely in High School!

LOL! No more quiet moments I love every bit of this I'm surprised you even had a second to type this up lol! I am cracking up Simon and The georgus girls! I love the name Elliott my 2nd sons name is Baron Elliot (yes 1 t) I love how they are all in different ages and stages and the fact there are boys and girls but all the boys are older than the girls that's perfect I think my house is full of boys I have there dad, then Hunter who will be 20 in November, Baron who will be 6 & dislikes Nolan they have a Eminem & Kim back in the day relationship, then Nolan who will be 5 & is very similar to Isacc, then we have Tyson who just turned 2 & is our lil Kevin Farley. I love the story and the way you've introduced them into our lives I wonder still what color is yours and Aaron's toothbrushes just kidding this month is about "me" so I was totally kidding though! Have a great day with your new bunch of family!

love this! great way to update what the kids are into!
