Hello

Hello Summertime...

How I have missed you 👙🦀☀️

 

So glad you are here...

9 months old

This sweet little chunk was nine months old yesterday!!

It is crazy to think he has been around that long. He makes our family so happy and really makes things much more exciting. The girls just adore him and love playing with him and taking care of him. 

 

I just cannot get enough of his sweet face and soft squishy cheeks. I really feel like if he would sit still enough I could kiss the  all day. That blonde hair and those sweet blue eyes just get me 😍

 

He loves to play and go and explore. He is WILD and is way different than the girls. He goes full speed. I wish I had 1/1678 of his energy. 

 

Here are some things we want to remember about you at 9 months old

- your sweet little voice. You have started really jabbering. Our family talks so much I figure you feel like you have to talk to fit in with us. You say mama and dads and it's just so sweet.

- your sweet baby rolls. I love your arms and legs and all the rolls they have. I love you suntan and how your "roll" stay white inside. 

- your white hair. I cannot believe you are so blonde. 

- all your teeth. You are working on the 7th one and they look so big and cute when you smile. 

- your fat little square feet. They are just perfect. 

-your sweet big open mouth kisses. I love them so much!

-your hair growing over your ears. It makes you look so big. I am still hoping and looking daily for a curl or two 

Henry you are the sweetest little boy. You have stolen our hearts and we just adore you. 

Bye bye 3k

My sweet Annie girl had her last day of 3k yesterday. 

She is getting so big and I am so proud to be her mommy. 

I cannot believe that she only has one more year until Kindergarten!!!

 

She is so excited about the summer time and sang all day yesterday " Libe it up for the Summer!!"" Haha 😀

She had a great year with Ms Karen. She made some sweet little friends and learned lot too. 

 

We went last night to have a pedicure to celebrate 🎉 

 

This weekend.

We had a busy weekend. It seems like all weekends have been busy. No matter how much or little we have planned it is always busy and always goes by fast. 

Saturday morning we went to pepper place. This was our first time going this summer and it was lots of fun and we came home with lots of yummy stuff.

Melissa watched Henry while we did some stuff in the yard. The house next hers is being worked on. They had a little machine out moving dirt and Henry was mesmerized with this. He just stared and watched. 

We put up a stock tank pool this week and the girls have loved playing in there. Henry likes it too but only for short amounts of time. 

  

We had a birthday at the splash pad. It was Henry's first time there. He was wild. I'm sure we will go back this summer but I will have to prepare myself. 

 

We had a wedding Saturday night. It was raining and yucky out but the wedding was sweet and the girls had fun watching the wedding, eating and dancing.

 

Sunday we had church and small group. 

During church I sat outside with Henry because he wasn't sitting still. He was crawling around and I got a few pictures of him and remembered these of Annie when she was around his age. 

 

Annie's Day

Last week was Annie's school concert too. She has been counting down the weeks to this. She ADORES concerts and the hand motions that goes with it....She takes it all very serious. 

She has just loves her school this year and all her little friends have been so sweet. She is such an affectionate little girl and loves giving hugs. 

She loved the Doxology song that they sang b cause it talked about the Holy Ghost and she had a lot to say about that. 

She looked SO big and so sweet up on the stage singing. It is too much to think that next year will be her last year at the Wee center. I just cannot believe that. She is the oldest in her class but she just doesn't seem like it will be time for kindergarten at a big school after next year. 

 

Ellie's Day

Ellie had a award ceremony and concert last week. She is wrapping up first grade and it seems like we just started and I blinked and now it's about over. They say the older the get the faster it goes by and this scares me. 

She has been so excited about this day and has been singing her songs and practicing. In makes me so happy to see her so excited about these things. 

She did so good. She looked so big up there it made my heart so happy and sad all at the same time. I love this girl so much and I am so happy and proud to be her mommy. 

She also got an award for the math program they do at school and she could not have been more excited!

   

End of season

Soccer has come to an end.

This season was way different than last season ( in the winning department) but the girls seem like they had fun and that's all that matters right?!

We had cupcakes and trophies after the tournament to celebrate and so all left happy and all sugared up 😀

  

Mothers Day

This weekend was about as perfect as they come. 

We had a agreat Saturday and a great Sunday. 

We spent Sunday afternoon at my moms celebrating Mother's Day. 

Here are a few pictures from our day. 

 

 

And speaking of mothers 😀

I was looking for a picture yesterday and found this old picture and me and had to do a side by side of me and Henry.

What do you think about the resemblance??

💙

 

Wednesday

Wednesday we had a busy day. 

Annie had her beach day at school. We went up to eat lunch with her outside on our beach towels. It seems like just last year we went to do this with Ellie. It's crazy it's been 3 years.

Annie has a sweet little class. She loves her little friends and always want to hug each and every one of them when she leaves. She really has such a sweet little heart. 

I always get so emotional at the end of each school year thinking about how we will never have this year back and how next year will be so different. Next year will be her last year at the Wee center... I just cannot believe it. 

 

After our picnic lunch we went to the grocery store. 

It was Henry's first time to ride in the car buggy and he loved it. He was happy the entire time we were in there which is a huge deal for him. 

 

After the grocery store we picked up Ellie and headed to see our friends that had a new baby. It is so crazy how henry looks like a baby to me then I see a newborn and he looks like a giant 😀 I just need to stay away from newborns because it makes me sad thinking about how fast he is growing 

Ready for summertime

I know it's going to be very hectic and messy and wild but I am starting to feel like I'm ready for a summertime break. 

I'm ready for no homework, no lunch packing, no where are my tennis shoes, no husky pad signing, no in the car by 750 am...

Ellie's last day is not until June 2... we counted it up and that's 18 days...

I am sure after a week or two of this I will be ready for them to start back 😬 but now I am ready to be free. 

And I think that they are ready too 😀

   

This weekend

This weekend was packed full of things to do. I don't think we could have done another thing if we tried. We had fun though...

One of my favorite things we did this weekend was have church outside. It was the perfect day for it and it felt just like how church should be.

The kids enjoyed it. They don't usually stay with us during the service time but being outside in the open made it easier for them to be there and less of a distraction. 

After church they had three baptisms in the lake which was really neat to see and be a part of.

After church there was a picnic and games outside for the kids... what a perfect Sunday morning. 

This was our selfie attempt... we will have to work on it 😬

    

8 months

On the 25 of April this sweet boy turned 8 months old. 

Wow!!! 

Time is going so quickly. Before I know it he will be turning 1... 

He is really starting to show his little personality and it is so sweet. He spent the first 5 months of his life crying so these past few months have really been sweet and lots more enjoyable than his first few months. 

He is more active and wild than the girls ever were. He is crawling all over the place and pulling up on anything that he sees. 

He loves his sisters and does not want to be left out on any of the fun. That is why I think he doesn't sleep well because he thinks he is being left out of the party. 

   

He has the sweeetest smile that just melts my heart. He says mama and dada. It really is just the sweetest thing you have ever heard. He just started clapping and saying "ehhh"

That soft, sweet blonde hair is growing and making him look so big and old.. 

Here are some things we want to remember about Henry at 8 months old

*yor three little teeth that have popped right in. The middle left one is crooked and I think it fits you just perfectly 

*your sun sweet little arms with your rolls and nice little suntan. 

*how you curl up your nose and snort in and out. It is so funny and so sweet

* how you love people. I honestly thought that you would want to stay at home forever and never go around people the way you were the first 5 months but you are very social and you LOVE being talked to and talked about 💙

* your fat little square feet. They are just perfect. 

*how you sing to fall asleep. Just the sweetest sound. 

How sweet Henry we love you so
