Its been TOO long!

So it has been over two years since I've posted a blog. So much has changed since then. We are now a family of six. Our beautiful daughter was born on December 31, 2010. We named her Lily and she weighed in at 6lbs. 9 oz. We all love her SO much, especially the boys! Josh is now the youth pastor at our church, a job that has always been a dream of his. I'm still a stay at home mom and do my best to take care of the kids and the house! Life is good!

Yearbook yourself

So there is this new website called yearbookyourself.com that we found and decided to try out...as you can see my little boys have turned into girls! They had so much fun laughing at their faces in different poses. Sometimes it is the little things that make us laugh!



Aunt Brittany said that Isaac looks like all the teachers on the cartoons!









Aidan actually makes a pretty cute girl.

Labor Day

So the summer is winding down. We went to the pool for the last official day that it was open. Isaac has learned to swim this summer and Aidan did very well with floaties. Neither one of them are afraid of the water at all. I only hope that Ian is the same way. As you can see...he also enjoys the pool as long as the water isn't TOO cold! Aidan starts preschool next week in the 5 day program mornings only. So Ian and I will be alone every morning. I am looking forward to it! Enjoy the warm weather before it is gone and fall arrives.

Where has summer gone?

WOW! I can hardly believe that school starts in 5 days! While I'm not ready for summer to be over I am definitely ready for school to start. Isaac will be in first grade and Aidan will be going to preschool again 5 mornings a week. What I like about the boys being in school is the schedule. They do better and are generally in better moods! Which puts me in a better mood!!! Ian is 6 months old now and I love every minute with him! He is scooting around the floor on his belly, not quite on his knees yet! But will be there soon. He has both of his bottom teeth now. Now if we could just get him to sleep through the night...we would be set!

Ian- 4 months old

So my little Ian is 4 months old now. It seems like just yesterday we brought him home from the hospital. He is so full of life! Smiles all the time. He can now roll from tummy to back and is close to going the other way. It amazes me just how much they accomplish in the first year of life! They go from barely moving to walking! God has truly blessed our family. We are so grateful!

Where has the time gone?

So I was wondering why it has been so long since I updated this thing? Well with a new baby and now being a mom to three children, this kind of fell by the wayside. I will try to keep this updated more. So much has been going on. As you can see, Ian is growing TOO fast! And the boys are as well. Aidan turned 5 on May 28th and Isaac has almost finished his first year of school. We are ready for the summer which will involve lots of swimming, picnics at the park, going to the zoo and just hanging out with family and friends. Oh, and lets not forget everyone's favorite smores on the firepit!

My boys on Easter!

Here is a picture of the boys on Easter. They had alot of fun this year. Easter weekend started for them with a sleepover and Grammie and Grandpa's house then the Easter egg hunt at church on Saturday then a family birthday/Easter dinner for Claire's birthday on Sunday. They got SO much candy. I love Aidan's face in this picture...priceless!
