Baby's 1st River Trip

We took the fam to the river. It was such a blast. The weather was so nice. It felt so good to be in swim suits. Our sweet little baby girl enjoyed her first boat ride



.
The boat ride put her to sleep.
Pretty in Pink.
The Baltzers came to visit.  The kiddies were all so cute.  We were definitely outnumbered though.

M the Mermaid




Today M had her first swim lessons and she loved it! She is such a little fishy, or should I say Mermaid.  That's what she calls herself.

Smiles

This morning our sweet baby girl was full of smiles.  It was a great way to start the day.  She has also been sleeping 7 and 8 hour stretches every night this week.  I feel so good now that I am finally getting some sleep.


I can't believe our little angel will be 9 weeks old tomorrow.
CJ loved feeding his baby sister a bottle this afternoon.

Amber's Swim School

I have been trying to teach C monster how to float on his back for the last 3 summers.  After only three swim lessons at Amber's swim school, he is finally doing it!  I am so happy.  Alissa is the best teacher.
He can swim across the entire pool now with no problem.

Picnic in The Park

Yesterday the weather was so nice we decided to go to central park and have a picnic.  The kids had so much fun.
Here they are playing with the sticks they found.
Loving the swings.
 
Sweet pea.

Baby's Blessing Day

Daddy blessed our sweet baby girl at church on Sunday. All of her friends and family were there to support her. She was such an angel baby all day long.
Here she is smiling for the camera.
All of her aunts and uncles and cousins were there for her.

Our family of five.

Easter

For family night during Easter week, we had a lesson about the easter story, then the kids colored some eggs.



The results.
Easter morning was so much fun with the kids.  They had such a blast looking for eggs around the house.


The family.

Our cute neighbor Savannah came over for an easter egg hunt.

In Love

This little peanut  has stolen all of our hearts.  We are all so in love with her.

We love her little crooked toes.
And her bright eyes.  She is an angel baby.  Having her makes me want to have 10 more babies.

That's My Boy


A week ago CJ had a black eye.  I don't know how he got it.  He does not remember either.  He is so tough.  I think this picture is so funny because it looks like he got into a fight because he has a shiner and a missing front tooth. 

Do They Look Alike?

I think that they have different mouths, but their eyes are the same. 


Here is a pic of M.
The newest addition to our family.
