my kids

She's 3!

Happy Birthday to our sweet Sydney Kate. We had a great day and a fun party with family and friends to celebrate Sydney's and Joan's birthdays. Mike took the kids to Seven Peaks during the day and then we met at Rock Canyon Park for dinner & cake. The kids had a great time and our little princess was thrilled with her "magical cake" and all the princess presents. Thanks to everyone for all the gifts...it was a great night!

four weeks

I truly cannot believe it's been four weeks since this little girl came to us. It has flown by and she is growing and changing every day. Her days consist of eating and sleeping. We are proudly starting to get on a bit of a schedule instead of eating every 2 hours or whenever she cried (whichever came first)...she likes her swing and she's officially sick of my little "photo shoots". The other kids kiss her constantly and she takes it pretty well. Nighttime still leaves a bit to be desired, but she is a great burper...I will give her that! She is such a sweet little blessing. Happy four weeks princess Avery. Yes, Sydney says she can be a princess too!

"that's love"

Sydney used to hug up to my belly and now she hugs up to Avery's little head and says "that's love"...well actually for any of you that know Sydney's little way of telling you what to say, she says "say, that's love"...anyway, she loves her little baby sister. She is sweet and gentle and loves to hold her. The rest of us love her too...she is a sweet little 3 week old baby girl.

baby arleigh

My baby sister had her first baby this morning and my heart aches to be there with her. What a wonderful time for her and Andy, we are so thrilled that miss arleigh is here safe and sound. Arleigh Kate was born today...June 1st at 8:52 a.m. weighing 7 lbs 15 oz and measuring 18 inches. She is just beautiful. Can't wait to get these little girls together. Love you Kate & welcome to the world baby arleigh.
