Busy, Busy!

All is well here...crazy busy, but such is life with 3 kids! We had a great week...we survived on our own...well sort of. We had a little dinner help from several of our friends. We really appreciate all the thoughtfulness of our "dinner elves" if you will. Ethan is starting to wake up a little. He sleeps so much, took him in for his 2 week check on Monday and he is 9lbs 9oz already. He only needed to get back to his birth weight of 9.1 by then, so apparently he is not suffering in the nourishment department...he shouldn't when he's eating every 3 hours on the dot! I really am enjoying every last little moment with him, especially the days when the big boys are at school, lots of snuggle time with Ethan. It's been such a joy to watch the big boys with him too...Tyler is such a lover, Ryan more an observer, but he is very protective of Ethan when we are out of the house around others. They are both so proud...In the video below you can see it's TX bluebonnet time. Many of our friends have stopped by to visit Ethan as well, lots of extra TLC. Also, our great friends Deb adn Jason are moving to Calgary, Alberta. We are sad to see them go, but are excited for them too. Tyler is very sad that his best buddy and fellow football player is leaving. Hopefully we will get to see them sometime soon! Hope all is well with everyone! Love to you all!

My Three Sons!

Here are some more pics from this last week...lots of outside time playing baseball, riding bikes adn scooters, and a trip to the Houston Rodeo. The big boys went to the Rodeo on Thursday night and the little one stayed home with Grandma and mom and went to Walmart...whoohoo! As you can see, Tyler picked himself up a real Texas 10 gallon at the rodeo-he's been wearing it nonstop! Texas Forever! Thanks Buca Chuck for the hat!

HAPPY WEEK!

This week has been crazy busy...well with the arrival of Ethan we have been soaking up a lot of family time. My parents are here and we are thankful. We were able to enjoy a few days prebaby to get some important things done, like Tyler's 5th birthday. We had a great day on Sunday...played outside all day, then had pizza with one of Ty's best buddies from across the street. Tyler had his kid party on the 7th at Pump It Up with 30 of his closest friends! There reallyl were 30 plus there with siblings...all in all it was a fantastic party and Tyler really enjoyed himself. That night we had chili cookoff at school and both the boys performed. I was nervous that I wouldn't make it through the day without going into labor. Thank god I didn't because Ryan got Hand foot, and mouth that weekend...miserable week to follow! No sleep, crying kid, funny how nature prepares you for the inevitable!

Coming in Like a Lion!

So life is about to get pretty crazy! Went to the doctor today...not much going on...if Ethan does not come on his own terms...March 16th is looking like the day. It will be nice, Tyler's b-day will have passed, my parents will be here to help with the boys, and life will hopefully run smoothly! Hopefully! Anyways, we've been keeping busy...well I have anyways, Chad threw his back out last week and was bed ridden all week! This left preggy Patty to pick up the slack. He finally got his cortisone shots on Friday and started to perk up during the weekend...at least he started walking. I felt so bad for him...and me! I have never seen him in so much misery! Anyways...I guess things start to go when you turn 32~ Chad's b-day was yesterday and we celebrated by making a cake...the boys were so excited to present the Spongebob cake to Dad! Notice in the picture how one row is left unfrosted...Tyler's request! He doesn't like frosting, not sure where he came from! Anyways, it's been beautiful weather and we hae been enjoying getting outside and playing with friends...although we have to go to parks that have potties...for Ryan and me! Take care! Here comes March whether we are ready or not!

Tyler and Brock did the monkey bars! Ty's 1st time all the way across on his own!
Happy B-day Dad!

Yes...I am ready to explode! Everyone keeps saying, "Oh my you're so out in front!" or everywhere else too!

















Buddy party!
