Our Lazy Snowday







All this snow makes for a fun family, lazy day. Yesterday we just played lots of games, the kids made lots of messes, & Parker was hilarious creating new dress-up costumes. He came in with white tights and white underwear on his head and a blue shirt and said he was a smurf. He just makes us laugh with his little imagination. Paige wasn't feeling good, she was scaring me a little. No matter what we did, she wouldn't wake up for like 6 hours not even to eat. She just seemed lethargic and not herself. About the time I was ready to head to the ER with her she finally woke up enough to eat and then was more responsive. This morning she is still coughing pretty bad but is much better.

Paige's First Tub Bath


At exactly 3 weeks old, Miss Paige had her first real tub bath. I think it is pretty obvious what she thought of it!!

Sweet Siblings




We have now had 3 children for 2 weeks, and I have to say that it has been even better than I expected! I had a lot of anxiety right before I had Paige about being able to handle 3 all under the age of four, but they have all made it so easy. Other than having her days and nights mixed up, Paige is doing great. Presley just loves to hold her and just be a "little mommy" to her, and Parker couldn't be more sweet to her. He loves to help with her so much. There is nothing like watching your children grow and play together and just knowing they will always have each other. I loved growing up with a sibling and my sister is still one of my closest friends. I am so truly blessed with the three precious babies God has given me and for such a wonderful husband who helps out so much and for being able to stay home with my angels. Oh, how I love them!

One Week Old!!





Our precious little angel is already a week old! We are all enjoying her so much!! Parker & Presley want to hold her constantly. She is the best baby...she never makes a peep...hope I'm not eating these words later! Today she has been awake a little more and seemed to make eye-contact when I was talking to her which completely melts my heart. I now feel like our family is complete. Oh Paige, how we love you already.

Cutest Little Mommy











Presley has been into playing babies for a while now, but since we brought Paige home she really is. She loves for us to put a diaper on her baby and swaddle it in a blanket from the hospital. She will just sit and rock and love on her baby..it is so sweet!! What a good little mommy.

Paige's First Outing


Today we ventured out for the first time with Miss Paige. She had her newborn checkup, which went really well. She has dropped down from 8 lbs 2 oz to 7 lbs 12 oz so we have to go back in a couple of weeks to make sure she is back to her birth weight. What a blessing to have a healthy baby!! We also headed by WillowCreek to see her new friend, Annalyse Silvey, who made her debut a couple of days early! We are so happy that both mom and baby Silvey are healthy and doing well!!

Paige's First....








Here are a few pictures of some of Paige's first's....her first trip in her carseat, her first bath, and her first day (night) at home. She is doing so great..she is eating about every three hours and sleeping good now that my milk has come in. She loves to be held and is so cuddly!! Parker and Presley are adjusting pretty well to their new baby sister...I am so proud of them! We are all settling into being a family of 5 and loving it...we couldn't have managed the first couple of days to get settled without Nana...THANK YOU NANA...We love you!!
