Good Words

Dear Jack, Grant, and Will,

I'd tell you just what you mean to me
I'd tell you these simple truths
Be strong in the Lord and
Never give up hope
You're going to do great things I already know
God's got his hands on you
so don't live life in fear
Forgive and forget
But don't forget why you are here
Take your time and pray
Be strong in the Lord and NEVER GIVE UP HOPE

I love you boys so much. You are my joy!

Roller Skating







Jack has gone to a few birthday parties at Great Skate and wanted to go over break. My parents came with us. Jack had a blast and is getting really good, Brian enjoys skating as well. I am not so fond of roller skates so opted to hold Will and after a fall Grant lost interest as well. Fun was had!

Ice Skating






















We went ice skating over break. I love to ice skate and have not been able to in a few years. It was a lot of fun. Jack got pretty confident the more times he went around but Grant was done after his first fall. Will hung out in the stroller and dreamt of joining us next year. Enjoy the pictures!

Dinner







Will sat in his high chair for the first time the other night. I think he liked sitting with all of us. We also had bread sticks and as you can see from the pictures they proved to be quite fun. Grant made his into guns and Jack had fun putting ears behind Grant.

3rd baby


With your first baby naps are scheduled, planned, the house is quiet, fans are on, lights are off. With your second baby it is similar to the first but maybe with a little more noise. With your third baby they sleep in the bouncy, on the kitchen counter, while you make dinner, the 1st grader does his homework, the 3-year old runs around making a ton of noise, the dishwasher is on, the washer is running, the dryer dings, the dogs are barking to be let outside...yet he still sleeps.
And yes that is a razor scooter on the counter. I am sure Grant was riding it in the house a few minutes before this picture was taken! Ha!
