3 Months Old

How fast time flies when you are having......when you have three girls! Just kidding, we are having fun too! I just wish they would all look at the camera at the same time! I just can't believe that the twins are 3 months old! I just love being a mom ya know. There are times I don't have a minute to go and pee, but I just love my girls. Madison started laughing on Sunday.....that first little laugh is always so precious! So here are some snapshots of the girls today.

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day out there to all my friends and family! We dedicated the twins to the church today and attempted a few family pics.......Chad and Hannah snuck away yesterday and got me the sweetest present for me for Mother's Day. At Christmas time I told Chad I wanted a necklace with all three of my girls names on it. Chad, being the sneaky, loving suprises kind of guy he is....suprised me with it this morning. Of course he told me he and Hannah were going to watch some of his kids play tennis in Georgetown yesterday! Such a sneak! Thanks honey, I love you!











I loved Bro. Gary's message today about being a Godly momma! With all the challenges that have been going on for the last 3 months, I pray my little girl sees Jesus in me! I know it has been tough on Hannah watching her mommy with these two new babies and my reactions haven't always been right, but I am learning. I want all of them to see me as a Godly mother and a Godly wife to my husband. Today was just a reminder that my actions and words say everything about who I am to my girls. I just love Proverbs and it was just so encouraging and convicting for me today. Just thought I would share!
A special thank you to my mom and Chad's mom for being the best! Thank you for sacrificing to help me with Hannah and the twins! I really could not do it without you girls! You are both the best grandmothers in the world! Thank you for being such posititve role models in our lives, we love you both so much! And thanks for putting up with me!


I forgot this one!

Kissing cousins! This is our nephew Connor and Hannah is just loving all over him! She just loved her visit with Connor and even tried to teach him to walk! Too cute!


My first haircut

We finally decided to get Hannah a little haircut to even up the ends and get rid of the point growing down the front of her head. She did really good as long as she got to sit in mommy's lap. So, that is why all the pics are realllllly close up!

Another attempt for a pic with all three girls!



Madison and McKinley are definitley changing.....they are smiling more and laughing. They are able to play more on their own! We are on a schedule now and guess what????????? They are sleeping through the night....Praise the Lord!!!!! Well, by through the night, I mean like 4, 5, or 6! Last night they went down around 8 and Madi slept until 6:30 and Kinley slept until 5! Sleep is wonderful!!!!! Now if we can just get them sleeping in their cribs. They are still sleeping soundly in their bouncey chairs. They are such sweet girls with such different personalities. Madison is okay playing by herself and McKinley loves to talk to you and she wants your undivided attention! Here are some recent pics of them.

More birthday pictures!

Hannah Turns Two

We decided to do it small this year for Hannah's birthday party and just have family there! I think I might have stressed a little doing anything too big! Maybe next year when the twins are walking! We had a great time with family and Hannah loved being able to play with her cousin Connor and Eli! We ended up doing an Elmo birthday....which of course I would have loved something a little more girlie, but Hannah totally digs Elmo. Once again Hannah cried when we sang Happy Birthday to her and mommy had to blow out the candles.....she loves attention but not when we are giving it to her all at the same time. Thanks to all our family who were able to come and celebrate Hannah with us! We appreciate all the clothes and toys! Hannah loves to play dress up and have her tea parties with Elmo and Mickey! She also loves playing with her new "stuffed" dog Chloe and oh how she loves her new doll house! I just love this new stage of make believe! She loves to tell you stories and loves to take care of her babies.....I think she has like 3 sets of twins! Thanks Tati!

Easter 2009

We practiced hunting Easter eggs this year in the front yard because this would be Hannah's first time to actually Easter egg hunt. We took her to the Easter egg hunt at UMHB and she had no trouble catching on...her basket was overflowing and we couldn't get her to stop picking up eggs! The twins came to and hung out in the stroller without too much fussing! They love to be outdoors! We were able to go to the Easter service at the Expo center! It was great! Meredith and Grant were there to help feed and burp babies and we actually got to enjoy the service. Thanks Mer-Mer and Grant! Here are a few pics from Easter. We didn't get too many of the twins, either one is sleeping and the other is smiling or crying.....and don't even talk about getting the three girls together for a picture!













2 months old

Ok, so I am really behind! Madi and Kinley are now almost 3 months old but I haven't had time to post the stats of their 2 month check-up....so here it is: Madi 9 lbs 8 ounces, 21.75 inches long and Kinley 8 lbs 9 ounces, 20.75 inches long! Kinley's head turned out to be bigger than Madi's this time though! They have adjusted to formula well and their personalities are blossoming!
