7 months...

Wow...where has the time gone. I can't believe our baby girl is already 7 months old. Oh, how she melts ALL of our hearts everyday. You are sweet, easygoing, observant, beautiful, you love to play in your pack-n-play (it must be a third child thing b/c the boys would never play alone in a pack-n-play for the length of time that Grace does), love your jump-a-roo, light up when the boys walk in the room, love when your daddy kisses all over your face, love your crib, take wonderful naps, already trying to crawl, thought you would have a tooth by now but you don't, love your cereal, you are a wild women in the tub, flip all over the place while getting your diaper changed, are in the 90th percentile for your weight and the 80th for your height, you are everything I could ever ask for...we are truly blessed! I love you Grace Elizabeth and I am so happy to know that I will forever have you as my best friend!!

This was how happy she got when the boys came outside...she went crazy!

love this picture...ran into the house (don't worry I could still see them) and this is what I saw....Priceless!

Had to add a few of the boys...and loved this pic of Tyler!

Bath Time...

I figured I better get a few pics with them all together in the tub, because according to Tyler he only likes showers and he is getting to old to take baths with his brother and sister. Grace was so funny she kept trying to turn around and find the boys, which would make her fall over. The boys thought it was hilarious. Needless to say, she didn't last very long in there with them. Well, other then our daily day to day routine we have had a very quiet week. We all ended up getting the horrible stomach flu that is going around and let me tell you it was the sickest our family has ever been. It was just awful! We are all feeling better and looking forward to a fun weekend. We are heading up to JU tomorrow night to watch our first game. It is going to be so weird seeing Tommy in a uniform as the coach and not a player!! And then Saturday one of my best friends is heading into town for a short visit! Yeah! Hope everyone has a great weekend.

So sweet!

The crew...probably my one and only group bath time picture I will ever get!

And Tyler so nicely cooperating for the picture but what he is really thinking is hurry up and take this stinkin picture because I really don't want to be doing this!

Happy Valentine's Day...

Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Valentine's Day. My mom came into town on Thursday and we have been enjoying every minute with her. We have done a lot of hanging around the house. We did venture out yesterday to the science museum and had a great time. And today my mom and Tyler actually managed to walk to the park without freezing to death. I swear we moved to Antarctica. I can't believe the difference in temperature from back home. We only moved 4 hours north and it is just ridiculously cold here. I am seriously ready for some warmer weather! Well, besides Dylan waking up with the stomach bug last night we have had a wonderful weekend. Today was spent relaxing at home and praying that no one else would get sick!

Isn't she such a cutie?? We sure think so!




Here are my favorite gifts from my two very special little valentines. The best part about my cards was that the boys went and made these all by themselves, without anyone prompting them to do so. It was really, really sweet. Tyler loves to write. It is amazing how well he is doing.



And Dylan has been working so hard the past few days on drawing hearts. He was so proud of himself as I was too!
