introducing auntie toefish

i've been inspired by sharon's blog to post pictures of my nieces and nephews as well because they are awesome. from top to bottom they are: abby, a very cute terror who is turning two on december first and will probably be six feet tall like her parents; tayten, also cute and an even bigger three-year old terror whose latest thing is wanting to be squished - he says things like, "auntie, sit on me" to which i always say no but then if he sees me sitting on a couch he'll crawl behind my back and lay there saying "now squish me" until i lean back hard enough and he laughs...weird but fun...and he also calls me auntie toefish because we once played that my foot was a fish coming to tickle him in the swimming pool and we now have to play it every time i see him, even if we're not in a swimming pool; anthony and ashley, abby's older siblings who are, at ten and seven years old, very cool and responsible and very princess-y, respectively; and taycee, tayten's one-year old sister who is cute and not usually a terror unless she's stealing his toys, which she does do once in awhile, especially his guns - and she makes the best pig noise in the world when you ask her how a pig sounds - you can ask me to imitate it sometime and i will do it for you . wow. and then we are going to have another niece or nephew come spring. so blessed we are. unfortunately the a's live in arizona and the t's live in alberta, so we don't see them as often as we would like. we try to be a good uncle and aunt and still send presents... :)
