Back to Blogging



Easter


We finally got a new computer so I can blog again! I can not believe how fast my kids are growing up. I'm not going to lie...I am not a fan. These three are so much fun and I love being their mom!
Anderson is now four
Adalayde is three
and sweet baby Elle is 8 months.

Lots of Pictures

We went to St. George as a family and had lots of fun. While we were there Anderson put this rattle on her foot and Elle thought it was fantastic.

Anderson and Adalayde love Elle
I read a home school blog and try to do one activity a day with Anderson and Adalayde. This day we were practing writing the alphabet in flour. Anderson loved it, one big mess but lots of fun.
I am not a big fan of guns and had not bought one for Anderson. Have no fear he is a boy so he made on out of my breast pump. He slept with his breast pump gun for weeks!
Elle loves her sling
Anderson still loves Toy Story
Addy going to dance class
We are having so much fun as a family of five. The kids are growing up so fast and it makes me sad. Anderson will be four on Thursday, Addy will be three in August and Elle is four months. Anderson and Adalayde love baby Elle so much and we feel so lucky to have her in our home.

8 Weeks

I really can not believe that my baby is 8 weeks old already. Time flies when you are having fun. The last 8 weeks have been pretty crazy. Not because of Elle but because of life. In the last 8 weeks Anderson and Adalayde have had strep twice. Anderson had mono and we are pretty sure Addy did too. Anderson had a bad cold and had to go on prednisone which makes him horribly grouchy! Adalayde cut her chin and had to have it glued only to fall down the stairs a day later and reopen the wound. Good thing I had super glue. Anderson hurt his foot and we thought it was broken. Turned out to be badly bruised but he could not walk for two days. So sad to watch your three year old crawl around the house! And just to make sure that Elle did not get left out she had a hair tourniquet on her finger. Poor baby her little finger was all purple because the hair was so tight around it. Luckily we have a doctor who works at Primary Children's in the emergency room who lives on our street. She came to the rescue with Nair hair removal. Who would have know that you should have nair in your first aid kit!

Other than that life is good. Elle is a sweet baby and sleeps pretty well at night. Her brother and sister love her so much. She has a very round face and still has all of her dark hair. I even think her little legs are getting chubby which is so surprising to me since Anderson and Addy were far from chubby. She smiles a lot and we think she is so cute! We love her so much and it makes me sad that she is growing up so fast. We are still having computer problems so no pictures today. Sorry!
