It's the Birthday Boy!!

Porter and I had a date for his birthday. One of his favorite things to do is jump on these things at the mall. So here is a recap of our date!

He really gets some air. All the way back to the car be kept saying WEEE and bouncing his hands. I loves this.

Eating some yummy chicken nuggets.

And what birthday isn't complete with out Star Wars? Build-A-Bear has these super cute costumes that he kept screaming "Skywalker!!" at.

Two years already???

Happy Birthday Porter!!

Oh my how the past two years have flown by. I guess that's because Porter keeps me on my toes. So I would like to slow down of a second and tell my sweet boy how much I love him. Porter, here are some reasons why I love you:

you give the best snuggles
you look so darn cute when you do the Funky Monkey
when you try to be "super sneaky"
you growl
you want to be just like you big brother
you have to kiss Emmett good night everynight
when you "squeeze me tight"
whenever I ask you what you want for dinner you yell "TACO!!"
you answer to the name Skywalker
your big blue eyes
your contagious giggle
because God knew I needed you so I could just stop and laugh sometimes

What Mom's go through for one good picture.

This is Corban telling me "Mommy, Emmett is crying" (see him pointing) Just in case I didn't notice. Porter is in his own world again. Not listening to anything I say. Playing with his own camera while I take pictures.
Porter is not letting go of the camera for anything. And Emmett is still crying.
The result: Pretty dang cute if I do say so myself. Sorry ladies, they are all spoken for!!

I LOVE THESE BOYS!!!!!

Too soon

Corban came home from preschool with homework. My baby is growing up. I tell him this as I get a little teary eyed and he said "Mom. you knew this was gonna happen. All kids grow up to do homework."

4 vs 1- and the 4 are winning

Some days I comb Corban's hair. This was not one of those days. Maybe this is why I have three boys. And some times Porter wears pants. Again, this is not one of them.

Porter REALLY loves Emmett. He wants to be around him all the time. No matter how many times I tell him to get out.

This is how I find Porter every morning. He looks out the window while drinking his bottle in Emmett"s bathtub. Gotta love that kid. Gotta love him.

We tried a photo shoot. Didn't end up that well. Newborns don't look at the camera when you need them to. Or they start crying. Or spit up.

So here are a few pic of the new addition and the new activities that have been happening in a house of 4 males and one lone female.

She's crafty. . .

Not me. I'm far from crafty. I made a blanket. Once. (hope you like your one of a kinda Miss Emma) I am AMAZED at the women I know that are so crafty. Here is an example of one that I am lucky go to church with. Not only is she SUPER crafty, she is just an all around great person. I personally have been blessed by her sweet attitude and kind spirit and look forward to getting to know her better. Check out some of the amazing stuff she can do and I can just look at and say WOW. There are some awesome tutorials for those of you that sew. (I'm not and I am Okay with that) She makes it look so easy. Guess it would be if you had talent like she does!!

Let 's hear it for the boys!

How can you not be in love with that? Emmett has been such a good baby. He LOVES to be held and will sleep in you arms all day if you let him.
And this face, this face was made to kiss!! Porter loving some yummy cupcakes.
My sweet sweet Corban. This boy will entertain himself for hours. The Lord knows I need him to sometimes. I think he played in that box for like 30 mins or so.
I love the fact that no matter what time of day it is, whenever Quinn sits in this chair and holds Emmett, he falls asleep. Happens EVERY time.

So, these are a few of the things I'm in love with this week!
