My dream of 7 kids....









When I was little I always dreamed of having 7 kids, now that I'm older I think I'll start with 1 and see how that goes, anyway, this weekend Teej and I traveled to CA for my newest niece, Brynn Jasmine Andreadakis' baby blessing. Seven of my eight nieces and nephews from the Andreadakis side were there. We had a blast, it's amazing to see how cute/funny/smart they are. For example Kylie who is a sweet and wise smiley 3 year old was chomping on Doritos I told her they were mine to which she responded "pshhh, they're from my house". Later that night at a Greek festival my 10 year old extremely intelligent and first niece Payton, who has been writing stories for as long as I can remember said "let's get out of this urban jail" I consider myself intelligent, but I don't think I would have used those terms especially together, at least till high school. My nephew Cayden, who as a baby only like to be held by his mom and me, turned 8, today actually, we gave him some money to which he responded "yea more money for my scripture fund!" which his parents already secretly bought him anyway. It was funny to watch Cassidy, 5 and Ashton 2, manipulate each other and antagonize each other for attention. Ashton wanted to sit in his mom's lap, Cassidy was there, someone asked Ashton how old he was, he said 3, Cassidy antagonized him by flashing 2 fingers infront of his face, to which he responed, Aunt Liz, Cassidy hold you, Cassidy hold you! I love it, they learn young. Let's see Colby still sings while he eats, he's been doing that for a long time, I'll have to post a video from a couple years ago, although his humming is much more melodious now, and the new baby Brynn has yet to unfold. I would take these seven any day!:-) Other pictures include my UK/USA oxymoronism, the Lake, and a cool gate TJ wouldn't pose in front of so I had to.
