Hank and his sweet smile!

Hank is the smiliest baby ever! He loves giving us smiles and it melts my heart!! He is cooing and just precious! His first smile hit exactly at 6 weeks. He melts ALL of our hearts! As you can see below the girls are IN LOVE with him!

Jennie & Ella's Visit

This past week my sister Jennie and her sweet daughter Ella came to spend time with us. Adam had games so he was busy and it was scheduled to be my first time doing bedtime with all 3 kids for several days in a row. Duh Duh Duh...Jennie came to the rescue. She came and helped me in so many ways. She is amazing. Helped entertain our kids which was easy with Ella. Ella is 4 months younger than Lola and Lucy and Lola just love her. In fact, since they left Lola has "called" Ella on the phone almost everyday. Jennie also really has helped me sleep train Hank to hope that he will be sound asleep through the night soon :) We went to our friends house for a sprinkler play date, Jennie and Ella threw Lucy a birthday party since they will miss hers here and we even managed to take all 4 kids to the baseball stadium for a baseball game. The girls got a ton of play time in, Jennie and I got some awesome time together and it was just the perfect trip. We don't get to spend that much quality time nearly enough which stinks because it was so wonderful!

Hank's Very First Baseball Game

Hank went to his very first baseball game tonight - we were celebrating his first month of his life. He was so precious and actually slept the entire night. Lucy and Lola always have a blast at "Daddy's office" - as you can see from the picture!

Happy Anniversary - 7 Years of Bliss!

I love this man!!

Could Life Get Any Better

Seriously? This is the total life! I am absolutely love love loving being a mom of 3. I have to say that I have been so worried about being on my own with all 3 and managing meals, nap/bedtime and nursing. I knew I would figure it out and I also know I will have my challenges but God has been good and given me a great entrance into the world of 3 kids. I went to the aquarium with the kids on Monday which would officially mark my first day with the kids on my own but I cheated and had a sitter come and help me. We got the the aquarium with the double stroller and Lola who never requests to ride in the stroller asked to be pushed - and stayed there almost the entire time. Lucy looked at me and said "Mom, I love you, can we just hold hands" and Hank slept the entire trip into town, at the aquarium and didn't wake until I had dinner on the table for the girls at home. Dare I say I could have done it without the help of Emily the babysitter? Not sure but it went really well. Today was just as good. I think the girls know that I need them to be helpful. They came home from Mother's Day out which was my first time to pick them up with Hank and they were awesome. Walked straight to the car after showing their teachers their little brother, which I was so excited they wanted to show him off. Sang songs the entire ride home, then we colored until dinner time. We played and they are all 3 fast asleep and it is 8:00pm! I have even managed to do a little laundry. I just have to say this is so much fun and although I am still recovering from Hank's birth I feel so great. Lola and Lucy are great buddies and are entertaining each other so well. There is nothing better than being married to your best friend and being blessed by amazing children. I want to bottle this time in my life!

Headed to the Movie!

This Saturday Adam, my dad and I took all 3 kids to see Winnie the Pooh. That's right we took all 3 to the movies. It was so much fun and could not have been done with out 3 on 3. The movie was only an hour long so it was the perfect test to get out and about. The movie was kid and papa Newt friendly so the entertainment was instant. Super dad got popcorn and treats for the kids so the movie flew by. It was so memorable and a total blast!

After a big day at the movies Hank and Dad caught a quick nap.
