Birthday Boy

We celebrated Gavin's 3rd birthday this past weekend, with a 4 wheeler theme. He loves riding his Papa's 4 wheeler up at the cabin, so we brought it home for rides at the party. The boy was in heaven!!!
He also got his very own ATV to ride, a power wheels one just his size. I must say I was a little hesitant about this, as he is only 3! BUT the kid does an amazingly good job at handling it. He's got it all down, steering, shifting it to the "FAST" gear, and can even back it up out of his very own parking spot in the shed! I'm happy it keeps him happy, and out of trouble in the house.

Happy Birthday Sweet BOY!

First smiles

Our little monkey is changing by the day, we can't believe he's six weeks old already! I caught the sweetest mommy moment, Isabel was laying on the ground talking to him while he was playing on his play mat. I looked over and he was totally smiling at her, so I quick ran to get the camera and captured this...
Owen's first smile

Owen six weeks old!

Catching up....

The mama is falling behind here! Maybe it's because I've been pulled in every direction and can barely keep my head on these days....we've been SO busy!
Here is what we've been up to...
Mr.Owen turned a month old already! Can't believe that? He's such a great baby, and happy as ever. Hoping he sleeps through the night soon, he's very close, only wakes up once around 3:30, if he could just make it a little longer :)

We said goodbye to summer with one last lemonade stand..We celebrated a birthday, Gavin turned 3! He's so proud too, and can't wait for his 4 wheeler party!
And most recently Miss Isabel started Kindergarten this week. She's very very excited to be a big kid. Loves her teacher and everything that goes along with school (for now at least). I'm holding on tight, and enjoying her innocence while I can.

Five and a HALF....

She's turned the corner, after all she's 5 1/2 now. A lot happens when your 5 1/2...start kindergarten, loose teeth, ride a two wheeler bike, tie shoes, become a big sister! Just this past week, Miss Isabel learned how to ride her bike without training wheels, AND lost her first tooth!!
It has hit me, that before my eyes she'll be driving a car, and looking for the perfect college to attend. She already looks SO much older without a tooth, and she even talks different.

Brotherly love

Well 2 weeks has come and gone! I can't believe how fast time flies! We've been busy adjusting to becoming a family of 5. Gavin has been regressing the most, he for sure shows signs of being the "middle child". Hopefully as we get back into our routine, he will start to adjust. For now, were giving him the most attention, love and affection. He's SO proud to be a big brother!!! I was able to capture this rare moment....just too precious.

Brothers

He's here!

Our newest addition has arrived, and almost on the due date...not too shabby! We brought him home and are showing him around the house, where he sleeps, what "cars" he's aloud to play with, the garden, and even got introduced to the fish tank friends this morning. Needless to say the kids are so excited baby brother is here! Hopefully this babymoon will last awhile.... we're in love!

40 weeks...

Well my due date has arrived, and I still have a baby in my belly! I officially can just barely see my toes, my belly button has popped, not even maternity shirts cover my belly anymore, and my heartburn is in full force.
BUT the good news is.... I have a coming home outfit ready for him, my camera and all the right lenses are packed, his bed is all ready for him, I have a fresh hair cut and color, a pedicure scheduled, all the important things covered! So come on already Mr.Stubborn we want to bring you home!!
