This is Joshua amusing the children!

Happy Birthday Adalyn!!






Well, Addy turned seven!  We had a Pinkalicious birthday party with Grandma, Aunt Lisa and Uncle Ron.  Uncle Garrett and (soon to be) Aunt Brittany stopped by also.  Adalyn received lots of fun presents and had a really great cookie cake that her Grandma made her (recipe to follow).  Her Uncle Dustin and Aunt Cara also bought her flowers and 24 cupcakes and surprised her at her school.  She wore a brand new pink outfit to school that her Grandma and Grandpa bought her, with new pink shoes from Mom and Dad.  One of her favorite gifts was ten dollars and a singing birthday card from her Nana and Papa.  


We just can't believe that our first born is seven!  My how time flies!  She has been such a joy to us!  She is our child that is full of life!  She finds fun in everything!  She is animated and playful and silly and creative.  She loves to make and do everything!  She loves to collect things.  She is a fantastic problem solver and unlike her Mom and Dad, she is great at Math.   She loves to pose for pictures and act in videos.  She loves to make friends and is good at taking charge and telling them what to do!  (especially her brothers!)  She is a great helper with her brothers and is convinced that she will be much happier grown up and married, than being a little girl.  She is so fun to be around, we are glad that she belongs to us!

Little Treston!


Oops, too close!
He is such a sling baby!  I put him in it and he is out!
I love Caleb's face in this picture!  He wants to hold Treston all the time.  He is really into the big brother thing.

This is the first picture of Treston sucking his thumb.  After this, he can't get enough.  He will pull out the pacifier and try to get his thumb in!  The only problem is that he can't keep his thumb out of his fist-so frustrating!
Ethan loves to just look at Treston.  He has decided that it is too much trouble to wash his hands in order to hold him.


Home Sweet Home!

Time to get dressed!
All ready to go!
Joshua is the most ready to get out of the hospital!
All buckled in
The nurse asked me if this was my first baby because I took so many pictures...I replied "you would think!"
He is asleep before the car starts to move.
Here is your new home.
It feels good to get home!  That good feeling lasted about ten minutes.  Then the kids started to go crazy.  I wanted to know if it was too late to go back to the hospital!
Proud big sister!
Our little family!!!  Okay, not so little- our growing family!
