Crossed a few photos today! Old and New!

Sometimes words don't even need to be said for how cute our little one's are to us!



Taking on one more!

What was I thinking???!!!! We had some family move to town, Rich's sister and her family moved just blocks away. We love having them close and I am learning to "ask for help" as much as I allow myself too. I am hoping this will get easier as the time goes by. They are always calling and asking if we need anything, I love that! Makes me feel loved with the hectic schedule we are on. With them moving to town, we have taken on watching their little one, Rogan, she is 4 years old and is a great gal to have around. Her and Aaden play very nicely together and they both adore Garrett. Some days are rough, but we are making it work for the best! I am coming to terms that I think 2 is plenty for us! But we will see :)




Cousins come to town....

For Spring Break, we were able hang out with the Bingham Kids! Aaden loves these kiddos and talks about them all the time! I wish we lived closer so we could play like this more often! We were able to have a full week of visits and play time. We sure miss them!





Aaden, 28 lbs and growing.

I can't believe Aaden is 3 years old! I also can't believe that his little brother is just pounds away from catching up to him. Things about Aaden I love: His independence, his caring heart, his helpfulness, his ability to read emotions and want to fix them if they are unpleasant, his love of his family. Aaden is definitely all boy, its so funny to watch him play and see how much he has grown as a little boy since last summer. He wants to climb high, fall, play rough and not come in from sun up to sun down. I am hoping the weather continues to get nicer and we can have more days like this. He loves to sing and can memorize songs so well. He loves to count, color and play school as often as he can. Aaden has recently took on many of the prayers in our home. There is only a few times that he asks for help, I think he is doing a great job and no matter what he might say in them, my heart just melts for the joy I feel when I hear him say, "Our dear heavenly father....." I can only pray and ask heavenly father to continue to bless and be apart of his life, so that he always has the desire to pray. I just love this little boy so much and love being his mommy! He makes me so happy :)





Garrett, 16 lbs and growing.

Garrett is definitely our big eater! Being able to breastfeed him regularly since I am home has been nothing but a blessing. I just can't believe how much he is growing. We had his 4 month appointment recently and I just couldn't believe his growth from his 2 month check-up. I am so thankful for a healthy little boy, besides the acid reflux. Hopefully that will run its course in the next few months and he will be nothing but a happy-smiley baby! I am so thankful to have him in my life and in my little family. I love watching his smiles and coos, I love watching him scoot all over the living room floor, I love how he wants to be cuddled (even if its all day long). I love watching him and Aaden together, I hope they stay this way forever. I love playing peek-a-boo with him and patty-cake. We tried to start oatmeal this past week and slowly but surely he will get it, as for now, he has no idea what to do with it and he makes all these gagging noises before it even hits his tongue. I love watching his little personality develop. There are just too many things I love about this little boy.
