Three Little Monkeys

I am loving life with three little ones. Everyday I realize how lucky I am to have them in my life. I just feel so blessed to be able to be a mother and try my best to raise them. Don't get me wrong, there are days and always a few minutes of each day that is pure craziness. (That is why I am doing a blog like this to remind me how in love I am with my kids!) ;)

Kenslee keeps me very busy, we have to have some activity going on all the time, if we don't I hear "I am SO bored". She loves to color or do crafts, that keeps her entertained for a while. Questions, Questions, Questions...she has so much going on in that little brain of hers. She is my little smartie and I love watching her learn. She is a good little reader now, she loves to sound everything out. It is SO MUCH FUN. Sometimes she is too smart, and I don't know what to do with her. I have a couple of funny stories...

Cade and McCoy were outside playing and we wanted them to come inside. We Told Kens to tell them to come in. They wouldn't so finally she yelled outside and told the boys that there was chocolate cake and to come in and get some. The boys came running in so excited saying, chocolate cake, chocolate cake. We could not stop laughing. At the time I didn't know if I should laugh or teach her that that was telling a fib. Another funny thing happened while we were eating dinner. She had eaten all of her watermelon all gone, so she leaned over and saw that I had some left on my plate, she asked me if she could borrow some of my watermelon. I just laughed and said only if you give it back when you are done. I thought it was such a cute question. I have no idea where she comes up with the things that she does. We are always saying that she has a party going on in her little head, and that they broke the mold on this one! We sure do love her!

Cade is my wild little two year old. It is like the instant he turned two the only words I hear out of his mouth are "NO", or "Mine". He also thinks it is really funny to tell me "No way Mommy". He is such a little stinker, but a cute one. He is the most polite two year old I think I have ever met. He tells me and anyone else that gets something for him "thank you". He will always say to me after I do something for him, "Thank you Mommy", and it just makes me smile and want to do anything for my little man. He also tells anyone who sneezes "bless you". My favorite is when he tells, baby Nash bless you. He is all about asking his sister nicely to share, and he says sorry if he thinks he hurt you or bumped into you. I just love how stinken polite he is. He is also always asking me "what for Mommy" or " what's this"? There is nothing better than watching your kids try to learn, even though it gets very tiring at times when he asks over and over again.

I could eat this boy up!

Oh, my little baby Nash. He is the BEST baby! He is a good sleeper, eater, and smiler. He has been an amazing third child to have. He is starting to talk and smile so, so much. He is such a snuggler and we both love it! I just can't get enough of his smiles and little baby talk, and his cute little curled up bum laying on my chest. I can't believe he is almost two months. Why do kids have to grow up so fast, it is sad but so fun to watch at the same time.

I LOVE MY LITTLE FAMILY!

Billy's Birthday and more...

Since we were in the hospital on Billy's Birthday, I decided to throw him a little party a couple of days after. Billy and Nash could have shared birthdays, I guess a day apart is pretty close. Billy thinks that now his birthday will be the one forgotten. I told him we will always celebrate it, but I can't promise him that his birthday won't be the one to get pushed a couple of days later.
Happy Birthday Babe!! I love you! You are the best-looking 31 year old around! Woot Woot!!

Giving the baby loves!

Nash 1 week

Nash praying. I had just set him down and he folded his arms, it was so cute I had to get a picture. I love how he has marks on his face and arm from snuggling.

This is a cute onsie that my friends gave me. Thanks DOUGS! love you girls!

Kens started her ballet and tap class. I took her to the store to pick out her ballet outfit. Purple of course, this girl loves her purple. It is so much fun watching her during class. She is such a ham. All of the other girls are a little timid, but not Kenslee. She is dancing, smiling and going all out. What really makes me laugh is watching her while it is another girls turn to do the dance across the floor. Kens is looking in the mirror singing and dancing to herself, and she will sit and do poses and flip her hair and be talking to herself. I just sit and laugh, this girl keeps me smiling.

Kens and I had a girls night out with Aunts and Grandma. We went and got pedicures. Kenslee loved her flowers and the beautiful jewel. It was so much fun taking her with me.

Smiles! 1 month

Summer fun before the Baby

Running through the fountains

Kens found Grandma's dress-up box. This entertained her for a few days, she was always wearing some new outfit. This was one of my favorites!

Kens has had so much fun with my camera. I have had to delete SO many pictures. This is one I found, I thought it was pretty cute.

Nothing better than hanging out with my kiddos all day!
They are best buds (most of the time).

Kenslee finished swim lessons and passed! She had so much fun. I was definitely done by the end of the 2nd week.

Kens could not wait to meet her new baby brother.

Our little cowgirl

The Friday before Nash came, Cade broke his finger. Cade and his cousin McCoy were running around playing and the next thing I know Cade was screaming. I ran up the stairs and his finger was smashed down to nothing. He got his finger slammed in the door. I knew right away that I needed to take him to get it looked at. I was going to be really surprised if it wasn't broken. We got it X-rayed and sure enough it was broken. So for 3 weeks he got to wear this splint, which was a fight to keep on at times. I actually just took him back to get it x-rayed again today and it is healed, so no more splint. YAHOO! It is funny because he still keeps it straight, so he is really good at flipping the bird.
Poor boy and poor little finger.
Princess Kenslee, she is such a sweet, funny girl.
This boy is such a stinker, but man do I love him! The day before Nash arrived, on Tuesday, Cade slipped on the tile. He didn't catch himself so he went face first. His lip was all bloody and I looked and his front tooth had a big hunk gone. I haven't had the chance to take him to the dentist but I am hoping that they can just fill his tooth and make it look normal again. I will have to try and get a picture of it. I don't know what to do with this boy, I am hoping that we are done with all of these accidents for a while.

Kenslee started preschool. She could not wait to go back to school. I was pretty excited myself, she is just such a busy body. She goes 3 days a week, which has been perfect with the new baby. It helps her stay busy and gives me a little break.

This is all this boy does these days. GOLF!
My gorgeous Kens.
My handsome Cade.
