Personally, I much rather take photos of each of them one by one. 
My baby girl just finished up her Kindergarten year. Cliche or not, I can't believe how she is growing up so quickly. I vowed a long time ago to always let my children know how much I love the person they are growing up to be, and not dwell on the fact that they are not babies anymore. 
Tonight when she went to bed I threatened to put bricks on her head to keep her from growing any taller while she was sleeping (yeah, I know, I broke my own vow).
And then this guy, he will be a Junior in High school next year, half of which he will live in Beijing, without his Mama.
He is working 2 summer jobs, a camp counselor and at a local restaurant, and he sometimes thinks I am the toughest Mom in the whole world. I love the man he is becoming. I wouldn't want to be 16 again for anything, so much stress, so little perspective. He is handling it all much better than I ever did. I pray for his protection and his ability to make good decisions...It's all about making good decisions....

Your family is absolutely beautiful. I wish I had half of what you have to be able to raise 5 kids. Love, Monica
Getting more and more excited about our trip with every post that you make. C isn't a little boy anymore. How does this happen??? Last time I saw him he was laying on my lap pretending to be a kitty and he thought that my mom and I were twins.
Amy, I did have to laugh about the thoughts of what the kids were doing as you tried to take pictures. They are all adorable. I used to tell Eliana I was going to put bricks on her head too...I can not believe she will be in 2nd grade next year!
