How did we get to the middle of March so quickly. And I was so sure that I would be able to do so much better with this new blog. Well it's time to add some new pics. I've gotten multiple requests for more pics of the boys and Paul. And don't fear, there will still be PLENTY of Joy in all of these pics, we know she just can't seem to not be cute when the camera appears. So since our last post we have had TONS and I mean TONS of snow. In three short days the start of Feb. we got over four feet and no I'm not kidding. Can we just say that I'm SOOOOOOOO ready for spring to be here. I'm loving my new life here in Lakeside. Outside of the snow I couldn't be happier. Paul is amazing and while his work schedule keeps him incredibly busy I'm so grateful for his hard work on our behalves. I started teaching piano at the start of this month and am happy to say I already have 5 students (6 if you include Forest, but that's more for fun). I'm glad to have these students already and looking forward to having even more. Joy is starting to talk in sentences which is just so crazy to me. This week Slade (5) and Noah (7) were playing a board game and didn't want Joy to get into it and make a mess (which I'm thinking we can all understand). So they went to their room and closed the door. Poor Joy came back down the hall with her bottom lip out, shrugging her shoulders and everything, saying "ade, oah go?" She doesn't say the consonants for most of her words if that helps interpret what that says. They really do love each other so much and get along so well. So here are some pics.
Hat for Daddy
Hat for the bear
Tickle time!!!!
Horsey ride with Uncle David and cousin Caiden
Hanging with all the boys and sitting with Dad.
Joy's cute dress Grandma made her for her birthday
I'm not sure if this pic accurately portrays how tired either of us are. Good thing we're loving it!
All my sweet kids!
This is just to show that truly it's a lot of work to make some of these photos happen. We took more then 20 to get the above one. It's a lot of work people.
Pretty dang handsome huh! Forest, Joey, Noah, Slade. They all look so much like their daddy! I love it!
I love all of these wonderful children of mine.
Does it get more handsome than this? I think NOT!
Joy just couldn't help herself, it was so cute!
I love this cute little outfit, pink and chocolate look so adorable on her. And loving the headbands when we're in a hurry, that way her hair can still look cute!
No dad, THAT one!
I think it took 15 mins to get all this gear on just for her to play for less then 5. Super fun though.
I found Slade and Joy playing together one evening and just couldn't help myself. It melted my heart to see Slade being such an awesome big brother.
