So...if anyone is still reading this thing - which I'm sure you're not by now - you'll notice it's been a while since I've posted. I could say that the three little people in the picture below are to blame (I had literally just had them pick up all those legos 2 seconds before) but there's been a lot of stuff going on the last couple of months. Get ready for the catch up post!!
We went to the State Fair in October - told you it had been a while :)
This is where the aliens tried to abduct my over joyed children from their little farm.
And here we are again in all of our stroller glory!!
Halloween was great! Our little Maverick, Wesley, kept trying to steal Princess Emilee's wand, while our little goldfish sat in his stroller and watched.
We took the kids to Disney World in November and our niece Stephanie was able to meet us there and stay with us and the kids. What a lifesaver she was - we couldn't have done it without her and the kids still talk about Steph all the time. We were able to stay in a great condo where the coolest thing...
...was that the Master bath tub filled from the ceiling. Do you see the line of water falling from the ceiling to the left of Emilee? The kids, and the adults :), thought that was so cool. What can I say - doesn't take much to amuse us!
Disney World was way too crowded when we went, but Em was thrilled to meet some Princesses. And yes, I was totally one of those parents that put a leash on their kids!
Three kids in three years had us bursting at the seams in our house, and so in November we put our house on the market. I used my child labor to help get the house ready to show buyers, and somehow David was out of town almost every time we had a house showing. Lovely!!
We sold our house in February and moved into the new one the second week of March. It's a good thing we love the new house, because we are never moving again! It was a beating, but we feel like everything really came together and we are where we should be.
Our Emilee turned 4 in January - how did that happen? She had a great time eating just the frosting off of her cake! She is such a kind and gentle kiddo, and loves telling her two little brothers what to do!
We had crazy amounts of snow in Jan and Feb. The kids loved playing in it and loved throwing snowballs at each other. FYI - Amy, this is what they cancelled school for :)
William, or Baby Will, as he is called by his siblings, turned one in February! The year has just flown by! He is such a fun and happy kid who is determined to keep up with his big brother and sister.
I don't know if you can tell, but he really liked the cake!
We put in the garden at the new house last weekend. I don't have all the boxes unpacked, or anything on the walls, but we have a garden!!
Emilee is our little gardener! She loved picking out what to plant and playing in the dirt.
She refers to everything in the garden as "My plants!" and loves to help water and take care of them. I think she probably has a little green thumb.
We got the kids these rocking chairs when we moved into the house and Will loves them! He can get in and out by himself and shakes back and forth until he get it to rock. Isn't his face the cutest in this picture.
For about the last month, Wesley has had an ear infection that has been resistant to every vitamin and antibiotic they have thrown at it. He finally had to go in for Rocephin shots this last week - once a day for three days in a row. Not fun! By the third day he was fully aware of what was about to happen and wanted nothing to do with the Dr's office. I got my workout that day, and he got as many suckers as he wanted!!
And last but not least. We have a walker! Watch out, cause this kid is into everything now!!
And this concludes our 6 month blog update!!
