The Boys...

 The boys need a little air time too!! This kid continues to crack me up and be naughty all at the same time.

 Hudson is very into wearing hats all the time! This hat is sized at 12 months and he continues to wear it!

 Elijah has taken a liking to taking as many pictures as he can on my phone.  This is one of many self portraits.  He is REALLY growing up and way TOOO fast.  His last day of pre-school is in the next couple of weeks.

We took the boys to see Super Why and they LOVED it.  It was a fun family memory to make.

A Little Brinton Update

This sweet little girl has been through more in her little sixth month of life than I have ever been through.  That is a hard pill to swallow as a Momma.  She is starting to have an amazing personality that shines through this all.  Her little life still brings me to tears each time I sit and really think about it.  She truly is a miracle!

On Monday, she has a check-up MRI.  We have not heard any results so we are assuming at this point in time everything is looking great.  Brinton did great on Monday with the travel, sedation, and waking back up again.  I know God has amazing plans for the sweet girl. 

This shows how busy I really am!

 I realized today that I have not blogged since March 2nd. That is craziness! Here are my little charmers on St. Patricks day.  Love my little Irish babies. 

 Here is a close up of Kelvie!! So sweet and so cute.

Easter 2013.. Just one outtake... I have a bunch more and they are pretty entertaining!

Life...

Where does the time and how to get out of the cycle of feeling "I got this", but really inside  you are screaming for freedom.  I recently, had a conversation with a fellow mom talking about how in this season we just have to let things go and some things just cannot happen.  How do I let things go, but still make special times for my kids.  How do I organize my life in a way that is meaningful in this season.  Some days I feel like I need to breath and enjoy a moment of freedom. I just reminding myself that these days will go so fast and the girls will be in kindergarten before I know it.  Just keep reminding myself to breath!

Above is a picture of a sweet memory that I want to remember for a long time.  This was the first time the girls took a nap at their Nana and Pappy's together.  Both girls just laid down and dozed off into dream land. 

Four Months Already...

How did this happen... where has the last four months gone.  Some days I feel like it has taken FOREVER, but other days I feel like I blinked and it is gone.  These sweet little faces are four months old. 

Stats:
Not sure on weight or length ... well visit on thurs.
Wearing all 3-6 month clothes and a few nb pants still
Size 1 diapers, but moving to a 2 soon
Both sitting up in the bumbo and loving looking around
Brinton is sleeping 14 hrs. at night and Kelvie is doing around 12 hrs. plus a 4 hr afternoon nap
Both are talking a ton!
Brinton is super smiley and Kelvie is more serious

Little girls I am proud to be your momma and I am excited to see what God has in store for both of you.  We love you bunches and bunches!

My Valentines...

 My little scuba diver! E LOVES pool therapy and this particular day he wanted to wear these corny goggles.. anyway... he is making tons of progress in his therapy and I super proud of him

 A cute little pic I caught of H and B.  The boys are really starting to love their sisters and want to interact with them more.  The jealous sibling events are starting to settle down!

My little valentines! Our actual day went well.  We had friends over to play, which I should have grabbed a pic of all the kids.  Then we had breakfast for dinner including pink eggs, pink pancakes, and bacon.  Later that evening the boys came down with the stomach flu... not so pretty the second time around.
