3 kids..busy busy. But I love it.

Okay, so it has been FOREVER since I last blogged...but...I DO have 3 kids these days and I wear I am busy 24/7. It is good busy, but very busy. I feel like I am running around like a chicken with its head cut off at times. But I do have to say that life is very happy right now. I have 3 beautiful healthy kids, a baby that I cannot stop looking at and am absolutely obsessed with. A 3 yr old that is finally talking for real and while he has tantrums, his sweet side is definitely coming back, and will let me snuggle him. And a 5 yr old that has been my huge helper and is as always my best buddy. And of course Ben and I are as crazy about each other as we always have been, actually probably more. So here is a glimpse of our life the past few months as we have been adjusting to a family of 5. Enjoy!

I learned that while Sophie is a princess...she doesn't really like wearing tutus at the moment. Maybe if she had some stockings on, then it wouldn't bother her. But like it or not, she is one stickin cute little ballerina. I call this picture "my grumpy ballerina".

I love big flowers on baby's heads. And so of course Sophie has many many of them. It is just too much fun. I feel like I am a little girl again, playing with my doll and dressing her up in every little outfit, complete with the bracelets, bows, flowers, dresses, shoes......It never ends and I LOVE IT!!


My three kids..not the greatest picture, but still cute! I can't believe I have 3 kids, crazy.

Um, I don't know why this picture is sideways, just turn your head :) But once again, James loves loves loves his baby sister. THey have some crazy bond and I love that. The funny things is, is that she is 100% like him! I feel like I have James as a baby all over again. except that I get to put bows on her head!

Once again, James loves Sophie. Every morning he gets up and asks me when he can go get Sophie and every night he checks on her. It is sweet.


This is the day that James got his Kindergarten shots, Sophie had an appointment as well. So James picked out two stickers, Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles, and put one on Sophie and one on him. By the way, James was very brave while he got his shots. He cried for half a second and then was fine.

Harrison got a bow tie on easter and he is so cute in it!


Ben and I celebrated our 10 yr anniversary of Prom. yep, May 2nd 1999 we went to Prom together. And here we are married 10 yrs later. We went to Los Hermanos, that is where Ben took me for our Prom. Man we got a lot of looks I tell you what. Some people asked why we were all dressed up and when we told them what we were doing they thought it was really sweet. I love that I have known Ben for so long and that we have so many memories together!

Harrison's b-day. We went to Wheeler farm and then came home for a Wall-E b-day party. It was a lot of fun and he loved his cake. It had Eve and Wall-E on it and as soon as he blew out the candles he gave James Eve and he took Wall-E. I thought it was o sweet that he was so willing to share with his brother.

James Graduated from Preschool!!
Here James is at his Graduation

James' cousin Mariah had a princess b-day party. James just showed off his awesome muscles.

JAmes and Sophie...You know they are sweet.



Once again, big flower and 100% absolutely adorable! She brings so much joy into our home and we all just love her to death. I can't believe how much I love that thing. Even Harrison has decided that he loves Sophie. He only calls her "soph" which I think is cute and always wants to touch her hair.

Oh yeah, once more thing. James can ride a bike without training wheels. It was hilarious. I was cooking dinner and he came running in telling me that he could do it. I went outside, and James hopped on a neighbors bike and went down the road. As soon as Ben got home James insisted that he take the training wheels off and he has been riding a two wheeler ever since!
