Happy 4th of July!

We spent July 4th with Nat's side of the family.  We swam all day and came home that night to shoot fireworks.  The boys had so much fun with the fireworks, and Ella Grace stayed up to watch it with us.

Bennett (14 months) and Ella Grace (6 months)

 Owen loves to play with Bennett!  

EG is 6 months old!

This sweet girl is growing like a weed!  She is now 22 pounds and 28 inches long (this is exactly how big Owen was at this age).  She has learned to sit up and babbles all the time.  She's also taking 3 naps a day, sleeping through the night, she has been weaned from nursing and is now taking a bottle 5-6 times a day, and she is eating 2 meals of baby food a day.    

 She has 2 little teeth!

 Worn out after her 6 month check-up and shots

 Love these 3!

 Sitting up on her own now...

 She loves to tear paper!

 Not a fan of green beans!

 She loves to play in her exersaucer and watch the tv and her big brothers!

Andrew's 1st grade awards

Andrew had an awesome year at school!  

 He got the "Fastest Mathematician" award for his class!

 He absolutely loved his teacher, Mrs. Debbie Sheehan!

 Last day of 1st grade!

So proud of this boy!

EG is 5 months old!

It's so fun to see Ella Grace's personality these days.  She is very laid back, but she also wants to talk and smile at everyone.  She is sleeping through the night from about 8:00PM-6:00AM, discovered her feet, sticks out her tongue, rolls from side to side, scoots in circles on her back, puts all her toys in her mouth, and pulls her head up in her carseat to look around.  

 Both of the boys are wonderful helpers with EG!

 She is wearing on of Nat's dresses

 1st little tooth!

 She is all dressed for church.

 She loves to play on the floor, so she can stretch out and roll around.  

 If definitely took a little while to get her little toes painted since she is so wiggly, but I thought it would be fun to have matching feet :)

Mother's Day 2015

Celebrating Mother's Day with Gary and my 3 precious blessings!  I love and cherish these pictures of meeting my babies for the 1st time!

Andrew is 7!

Happy 7th Birthday to our fun, silly, smart, and athletic son, Andrew!  We are truly blessed that God has chosen us to be his parents!

Andrew was 45 inches tall and 48 pounds at his 7 year check-up.  He's only in the 10th percentile for height, but he's steadily growing about 2 inches each year!

Andrew's party was at the bowling alley in Jackson.  He invited a few of his buddies, and they had a blast!  A few people from our family came too!

EG is 4 months old!

Ella Grace is talking all the time, starting to eat some baby food and fruit, grabbing her toys, loves her baby doll "Dolly," and has started arching her back when she is mad.  She is a very easy and happy baby!

 She was healthy at her check-up with Dr. Amy.  She is now 17 pounds and 25 1/4 inches long.  

 First time in the exersaucer.  She only wanted to be in there for about 5 minutes.

 First nap in her big girl bed.  Up until now, she's been sleeping in her rock-n-play.

 Sunday morning at church.

 We made a 2-in-one toy with her play mat and bouncy seat.  She loved it!

 Love these 3!

 Sleeping through the night consistently in her crib.
