What can I say...
it's been 2 months since I posted last
and I don't know where the time has gone.
Life is busy.
Very busy.
Some days I feel like I don't have time to breathe.
But its those same times that I am so thankful for our family.
And I still can't believe we have a girl in our home!
Dad has been playing a very important role of keeping the boys busy.
Because my whole day consists of feeding-burping-changing-playing/holding Viv,
trying to make a couple meals,
training our 2 year old to be a good boy,
dropping off and picking up the older boys,
and keeping some sort of harmony flowing in the house!
Dad playing games with the boys.
We often find Brock in Vance's bed when we check on them at night.
He just plops right off and they snuggle.
We even find Brock cuddled up in Vance's blankets! haha
Mr. Winston came to visit us & Vance loved showing him the baby toys
(or grabbing certain toys away from him that Vance thinks are his!).
The Aleckson's meeting Vivienne.
It was past bedtime.
But just this once we let Vance sneak out & lay with dad for a bit.
Big brother + sister = lots of love
Little brother + tiny sister = sweet but dangerous!
After bathtime Vivienne relaxes in front of the fireplace
& loves getting a massage & being warm.
Grandma Yvonne stopped by to spend the night.
The boys loved it.
She brought snacks & played games.
What a fun night.
Godmother Kylie meeting Viv for the 1st time.
Hanging out at the Herdina's.
Peyton decided he was going to try skating on the pond.
We just about died laughing!
Enjoying the Community Center.
Vivie & I have fun watching everyone from the lounge chairs.
Sleeping in the bouncer with her little outfit from great grandma.
Snugglin.
Snoozin with momma on the couch.
Someone wanted a picture with his sister!
Cool dude.
This is how this guy always sleeps.
And this is how this girl sleeps!
Ohh she's so sweet.
Bunch of goof balls!
I think Olivia would like some more attention...
but we know that's not happening for quite awhile.
Hopefully the warmer weather is coming soon so she can play outside.
Until then, she will find a place somewhere in this family,
whether it is trying to lay on Viv's pillow!
Tummy time most often turns into sleep time!
Look at that cute little butt!
Happy Valentine's Day!
We made the kids special cards & certificates,
along with a bunch of chocolates.
Then dad went to fetch donuts from the bakery!
After breakfast we took off for Grandpa & Grandma Johnson's.
They graciously watched the kids so Luke & I could go out on a hot date
with the Geers.
We went to Hog in the Road in Grove City & it was amazing!
What a fun night to try out a new restaurant.
Best sandwich I've ever had.
We'll be going back forsure.
Earlier in the day we stopped to see Gavin (our Godchild) again
& Em got to meet our girl for the 1st time too.
Gavin & Viv were born a week apart!
Luke's got Viv & I have Gavin!
Best friends swapping little ones!
Viv's Valentine's outfit.
Did I mention how much fun it is to dress her?!
Adler kept telling her how cute she was that day.
He's so nice to her.
Great Grandma came out to see how much she has grown since she was born.
Playing games with Great Grandma.
Blessing Vivienne as a Child of God.
