a picture of all 6 of them...
finally.
and yes, olive is on the verge of crying, but we'll just pretend she's smiling.
and let's be honest here.
this is the only way i was able to get a picture of all of them smiling and looking.
i promised them "jump and wrestle on the bed" time.
plus a sweet treat.
milo doesn't respond unless it's got chocolate in the reward.
or joey logano.
and i couldn't get joey to come by.
don't worry.
olive is NOT under that pile of kids there.
i'm pretty sure olive is praying in that picture---lord help me....i have a lot of crazy brothers and sisters.
this is my life now.
6 kids.
6 kids!











ok, that last shot is the cutest EVER. I am about to have my third in a week or so which will be my last, but your brood make 6 look too adorable for words. (I know -- you must be working your butt off. Hats off to you mama.)

That last picture.
Blow it up. Frame it. Amazing.
You are truly an inspiration and a wonderful mother! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteLove that last picture. I bet she is praying, hah. I jokingly thought I hope Olive isn't in the bed when they were jumping, hah.
ReplyDeleteYou are so blessed. They are so cute. Happy Holidays.
That last picture is THE most adorable thing! Glad to see everyone is adjusting well! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, adorable. That's all I gotta say. Oh, and how do you do it? Wowza.
ReplyDeleteI think your last picture (black/white) is one of my most favorite photos of all time in picturedom (is that a word?) :-). Priceless. Merry Christmas Emily.
ReplyDeleteThat last shot deserves a giant space on the wall! So perfect! You're babies are all so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAll of your children are absolutely gorgeous & adorable but Elsa melts my heart. She's SO sweet! & I am totally diggin her v-neck! I've never seen little v-necks! Please please tell me where you found them! I wanted to get some for my niece. :) Also, that last picture might be the sweetest thing I've ever seen. Congrats mama, they are all beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful!!!!! What a lovely bunch you have! They are so cute! and full of smiles! Love that last pic! It's amazing!
ReplyDeleteLove those pictures!
ReplyDeleteEmily, wow! you are so blessed, what a beautiful beautiful family. I am kind of wishing my hubby had some Asian in him! Ha!
ReplyDeleteLove the pictures! Gorgeous kiddos!
ReplyDeleteLove the 6 of them together. Love love love it.
ReplyDeletebeing a photographer of many kids it's hard to get them all together! i feel your pain. but the end result is fabulous! xxoox
ReplyDeleteWonderful !!!
ReplyDeleteI so like Elsa's hair !!!
beautiful! i'm the oldest of SIX and i wouldn't change it for the world! i have 5 best friends for life :)
ReplyDeletewhat a totally fun life!! i cannot wait to have kiddos of my own to restle and tumble with. ;)
ReplyDeleteI love that the lamp on the table is on it's side. :)
ReplyDeletelove love love. :)
ReplyDeleteryann works for food as well. i always feel a wee bit bad offering her treats in order to get her to do things, but it works, and we are all happy, so whatever.
and 6 kids? man oh man, i'm sure it's crazy, but i bet you handle it. those kids are lucky to have you as their mom!
you are blessed.
ReplyDeleteI took care of my cousin's 5 kids the other day for one day. All I have to say is that you're amazing.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine what amazing memories those 6 darling kiddos will have with a mom like you and their 5 besties around all the time.
Your kiddos are precious. I especially love the last picture. Olive is adorable in her oldest brother's arms.
ReplyDeleteYou did good - real good! What a gift to have each other. Being number 6 myself, I was always aware family was my greatest blessing. Now, my older sister who was always helping my Mom....not sure what she was thinking :) We are all really close now. This is our first year celebrating Christmas without our parents (my Dad passed away in April). Just being together is comfort and happiness with a lot of crazy.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on ALL of those beautiful babies. I don't know how you do it, but you make it look fun. ;) You should do a day in the life post sometime. I would LOVE to know how you get through your day with 6 little people!
ReplyDeleteAdorbs! Btw - time to update that banner again! ;) You've got yourself THREE beautiful little ladies now!
ReplyDeleteIt's the Brady Bunch. All you need now is an Alice. I sure could use an Alice :)
ReplyDeletewhen my sister-in-law and i are feeling especially overwhelmed by our crews we have pledged to say out loud in a cakey sweet (sarcastic undertones?) voice "children are a blessing from God"
ReplyDeletebut you know what? Darn it all, it sure is true. You got yourself there a bed full of blessings:) cute ones.
Please tell me that first pic is your Christmas card. Love. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd, oh are they beautiful! Each of them. Just, amazing!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous. Pics. Amazing. :)
ReplyDeleteThese are great pics!!!!! I only have 3 and getting them to pose all together is the hardest so hats off to you. Congrats on Olive!!!!!!!!!!! Merry Christmas!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love that last picture with toes and hugs. How sweet!
ReplyDeletethese are so precious! you are wonderfully blessed
ReplyDeletewe're on the verge of 5 and these pics do my soul a world of good.
ReplyDeleteyour children really are stunning.
happy Christmas Anderson crew!!

These cute pics make me want 6 kids! My husband will want me to find a new blog to read! ;)
ReplyDeleteThese are the greatest pictures!
ReplyDeleteAwesome job! I am impressed! I particularly love the last pic...all the personalities seem to be shining through!
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't get much cuter than this. And clearly your bribing skills are superior to mine because nothing could get my kids to look at the camera at the same time and look like they were enjoying life. My hat is off to you!
ReplyDeleteYou are 6 times an incredibly blessed woman. :) Praise the Lord for each of those precious faces... Who are all looking at the camera! :)
ReplyDeleteBLESSED.
ReplyDeletesix times over.
lovely lovely lovely.
:)
Congratulations on getting all the kids to smiling and looking at the camera and most especially for your newest edition and beautiful family! We just recently adopted as well and love our little JellyBean! I only have half the amount of yours but it's still exhausting and a joy all at the same time. Wouldn't trade anything in the world for it! =)
ReplyDeleteGreat job on getting them all in the photo & smiling at the same time! Print those photos out and share them with everyone... you never know when that will happen again! :) (But seriously, the photos are adorable, and I know you'll treasure them always.)
ReplyDeleteyou are amazing.
ReplyDeletehope i can be awesome like that someday.
xoxo
OMG So precious!
ReplyDeleteLove it! The last picture is AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteHow do you do it??? really I need to know HOW??!! Your babes are beautiful! You have truly been blessed/ I am in awe of you...I have 3 (5yrs, 2 yrs and 3 months) and while we have a lot of fun i feel like my house is a constant disaster and laundry piles up so fast. I cant imagine DOUBLING that....but I'd love to some day ;)
ReplyDeleteSuch a precious, beautiful family!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI love the chaos of a house full of babies! These pictures are how I have always envisioned my life with our babies. Completely loved, totally happy and so chaotic!
ReplyDeleteThat is one beautiful family, I swear!
