Something strange has happened to me since our last baby was born. I've turned into the biggest dork. I feel the need to color coordinate everybody all the time. Cute for the girls right? Except for some reason, I've decided that Luke and I have to coordinate with them as well. And sure, it's cute for pictures. But for just going to church or another outing, it's just weird. I went to buy dresses for Strawberry and Apple yesterday at the outlet mall because I've noticed that all the sudden all the dresses I bought 2 sizes too big are just about mid-thigh length right now. Strawberry is all legs and Apple has grown two inches in the past three months. We found this really cute white dress for Strawberry and then I found a similar-but-different one for Apple and all the sudden I was obsessed. I had to find matching outfits for Mango and me too. We spent the next hour scrounging the store and actually came up with some pretty dresses for all of us. Mine doesn't quite match their's but it's close enough. After I got home and realized what a nerd I was, I was tempted to take my dress back and get the black one. But then I looked in my closet and realized that all my skirts and dresses are black or tan. This is the funnest dress I have bought since the kids started coming along. Just count your lucky stars Luke, that you weren't here or I would have bought you a bright red shirt and white pants. :)
Mango found this whole picture taking thing very annoying. But I did get this awesome picture of her fauxhawk. It's the best right after she's taken a bath. It was too windy and sunny for the poor girl and I kept letting the other girls manhandle her. Please try not to notice my tall grass. I don't have a husband. Of course you probably didn't notice it before and now you will. :) Here's a couple pictures of my goofy girls:
Anyway, it was fun to take all the pictures. I really do need to take a photography class because I have this awesome camera and I don't know how to use it other than on auto. I obviously don't understand light whatsoever. And I always use this fence for the backdrop because going out and finding a nice place would be too big of a hassle. :) It still takes great pictures in spite of me, hey?

What a bunch of beautiful girls. All four of you. I think is super cute that you got matching dresses, even for yourself. I love Autumn's fauxhawk and frown. The picture of Katelyn below looks like she is about to cry. That little girl is getting skinny. You are all beautiful and I miss you.
You all look so pretty! :)
They're all so cute! And you found them, and yours all at the same store? That is impressive!
All the dresses are really cute. You look so pretty all together.
I think that tall grass is fun and I bet it was perfect for Easter Egg hunting.
