Spring Days.

We are loving this odd, but pleasantly cool Spring. I can remember some sweltering Memorial Day weekends here, but today its cool enough to be in my long sleeve t-shirt. Not bad! Lots of trips to the park and the library. Burning energy while the sun shines and watching movies and reading books while it rains. I wish I could stop time somedays and hold onto these moments with my three little ones. I also wish I could stop time in the middle of the night to catch up on sleep. LOL Here's a spring deluge of pictures for you all.....

 Kids health fair at a local church. Each station had a Bible verse talking about caring for the temple, etc. This one was hair, as in God knows the number of the hairs or your head. They got their hair styled and sprayed with neon colors.

 A bit blurry, but you get the idea of how impressed he was with the sight of himself in the mirror.

 Talking with the firemen and sporting his new bike helmet....now he just needs to learn to pedal.

 Little genius "reading".

 Entertaining mama with a puppet show.

 Crashed on the rug...so sweet!

My current favorite sleeper a Gymboree with a dog print, its so cute!

 Sister helping out one morning with a bottle of expressed milk.

Still looks little in dads arms.

Ok mom that was a funny joke.......

Oh wait, I get it now!!!

 My trio of trouble. ;)

Can't get enough of these smiles!

April Showers

Yesterday it was nearly 85, sunny, and humid. I was looking forward to the cool front and the storm that was brining it to us. I missed the storm, slept really hard since Isaiah only woke me once at 4:00am. The cool weather is nice! I wasn't quite ready for the heat and humidity. Rebecca and Levi liked the rain too....or at least the rain puddles.

 We didn't insist on the winter hat...Levi is just used to the cold weather protocol... hat required.

 Trying to find little projects to keep Levi busy and distracted from making messes. This idea from Pinterest was perfect for my wire loving little man. It kept him busy for quite a while this morning and its much safer than his last wire project. He pulled Aaron over to an outlet with a "tada" and pointed out a wire stuck in the ground holes of two plugs. Thankfully he didn't try sticking those metal ends in the hot openings. Yes, we bought more outlet covers!

 Rebecca is excited about the rain because she has her own garden this year. Another great idea from pinterest, this pallet garden. No weeding or tilling required. Her lettuce is already coming up! Little brother was all into filling the pallet with dirt!

 This week Isaiah was six weeks old. To celebrate the occasion I packed away his newborn size clothing. Sad, but six weeks was a good run and I'm enjoying his stockier and more cuddly feel. Our chubby little guy tipped the scales at 10 pounds 3 ounces!

No open eye smiles yet, but as he drifts off to sleep we get little half grins and sometimes big full smiles. This mama likes to think its his way of saying "I'm so happy you're my mom."

Four week highlights

Isaiah is four weeks old today...where did the days go?! We're all getting pretty used to being a family of five and loving the craziness that is our new normal! Pictures, pictures, and more pictures....

 Still a tiny baby who sleeps a lot, but enjoying making some new faces and spending more time awake.

 Big brother still fits in the mei tai which has helped daddy kill two birds with one stone....putting Levi down for a nap and washing dishes....my man is awesome!

 First bath....not his favorite experience, but he has come to enjoy them now.

 Surprise, I was making breakfast and I thought Rebecca was holding the baby and then I hear giggling and look up to see Levi with Isaiah in the doll stroller. Poor baby!

 Mama's favorite part of the afternoon.

 He's realized you should smile and pose when the camera is out.

 At the children's museum during Grandma and Grandpa's visit.

Pictures from this morning, happy four week birthday Isaiah.

 Proud brother.

 Oh, you crack me up!

 Mama's growing boys!!!
