My Random Five

You know how you have those pictures that don't
really give you enough to blog about
but you want to preserve them 
and post them anyway.
Well, today's the day.

I know that somewhere in Blogland there is a
RANDOM FIVE PARTY.
Well, I decided to do my own little
RANDOM FIVE.
Random Shots of  Five Kids
in my life.

Ready?
Number One.
He might be kinda naughty sometimes
but he is sweetly beautiful when he sleeps.
Our little CharlesInCharge~
Yes- those rosy cheeks are for real
and so are the lips-this is a point and snap picture.
Number Two
Lulu-Girl Who Won Volleyball Tournament Championship
with her friend Miss A (Miss A is on left)
Number Three:
SweetCheeks practicing her dance for the upcoming recital.
Number Four
Sister Ria also practicing for the upcoming recital.
And, last but not least,
Number Five
BigBoyE dreaming about the new baby girl
that is coming to disrupt his life!
Yeah- it is NOT going to be easy, is it?
Sleep now-while you can, E!

I have had a busy week so far-
If I haven't visited you yet- I will try to get there soon!
Lots going on here and my bag is packed in case
New Baby Girl
decides to come a bit early!

Kathy @ Creative Home Expressions said...

They are all so cute, Diana! I love the girls' dresses. Is that what they are actually wearing for their recitals?

Connie said...

Good Morning Diana, Do you remember this song . . .?
It goes, "When I'm worried and I can't sleep, I count my blessings instead of sheep . . . and I go to sleep counting my blessing".
Well, that song came into my mind as I looked at your five beautiful blessings.
Have a lovely day.
Your blogging sister, Connie :)

Lisa @ Texas Decor said...

I loved this post! You really do have beautiful grands! Love how the girls are so proud of their volleyball medals! I played volleyball in Jr. high, but wasn't any good at it. Lol! I hope your daughter is feeling some relief and that baby girl makes an appearance soon. :)

Red Rose Alley said...

Diana,
I love your random pictures today. I think I like those best of all. As you know, I often do a post called 'Just Because,' and they are just pictures that speak to me. Your random pictures remind me of that because there is no story to tell, and the pictures speak for themselves. Tell sister Ria this one is my favorite today - she looks so graceful. Your random pictures are very special and made me smile, Diana.

Love,
~Sheri

Nonnie said...

Mindy said...

This is the exact reason I started my life snippets posts. Total randomness to the world, but worth documenting to me.

Linda @ Itsy Bits And Pieces said...

Lovely grandchildren, Diana!

Jackie said...

Every Mother and Grandmother just went, "Ahhhhh." I'm quite sure of it.
How suuuuuweeeeet are those photos.

What a great idea, Diana! Sweet pictures...your cup certainly runneth over :) Hugs to you!

Tete said...

Love all the photos of the kids. You don't need a special reason to post them, just throw them in there. You know how a picture says a thousand words. WE can make up our own stories! LOL
Oh, I hope Mindy goes soon, but not in the middle of a storm, but you know that's how it happens. Prayers for all of you until that baby gets here.

Chatty Crone said...
