2- The number of pounds of difference there is between Israel and Abel. They are practically the same size now.
3- The number of darts that Ivy dropped straight down when we told her to "throw the darts at the balloons" at a game at Street Fair last week. (Luckily it was one of those games where "kids win every time"...so she still won a prize!)
4- The age our niece Addison turned last week (She's the one right in the middle. And sidenote...Aaron made this swing! Isn't he talented??).
50- The approximate number of people who came to the first "marrieds social" of the year here at NTBI. Looking forward to many more!
6- The number of pineapple whips Aaron ate at Street Fair in two and a half days. (That shouldn't surprise anyone.)
7- The chapter number we are studying in Romans class right now. We are learning so much. And we heard a lot about the infamous "Romans outlines" that we would be expected to do in this class, but we are both finding it so beneficial and worthwhile to outline the book!
8:00 PM- 8:00 AM- All three of our children's sleep time at night. So glad to finally have them all on the same sleeping schedule. :) It was well worth the effort.
9- The average age of Israel's friends here at NTBI. All of these boys (and a few others) have taken such a liking to Israel! It is so much fun to watch them play with him. And anytime I have Israel outside, one of these boys (usually David) runs over to get Israel from me. So sweet!
10- The number of food items I ate at Street Fair in two and a half days. (In my defense, several of them were shared with Aaron...but still...) :) It was worth the calories! (And for those curious: 2 orders of fried pickles, 2 pineapple whips, a hot pretzel, a taco potato, a zumstick, mozzarella fingers, a funnel cake, and a caramel apple). Here's Ivy enjoying some Street Fair food.
That's all for now! Have a great week!

How did you find the time to eat so much? Looks like Ivy is following in her Mama & Papa's footsteps.

Wow! I only got 1 pineapple whip! Then again I was pretty busy eating lots of other stuff...
Wish I could have ran into you guys!
The nice thing about same size kids is that they can share clothes! I have 6 boys in all the same size! It's great!
Thanks for posting!
It was so great to be able to spend some time with you guys this weekend! Hope you guys are having a great week :)
I have a feeling that Israel may be leading Abel through all kinds of mischief in their lives ahead:) Good thing Ivy will be right there letting you know what's going on:)
It was great being with you all last weekend!
love you

Mom-- I think you have their personalities figured out perfectly :) That's probably exactly how it's going to be!
