Father's Day and T-Ball!

Graham had a great Father's Day with his boys! He spent most of the day at school studying (not the fun part), but then came home to make home-made pizza with Sean! They had a blast, and it tasted surprisingly good!


Last night, Sean had his first T-Ball game! It was adorable! When he was playing in the field, everyone chased after the "hit." When he was up to bat, he put on the helmet and hit the ball on his first try. Then he stood there (I guess I forgot to teach him how to run the bases!), so his coach got him running. He ran and ran, past first base and into right field :) Needless to say, he wasn't sure what to do when he was told to run, and I have it all recorded. You have to love the innocence of it! He was so excited and had a blast with his new buddy, Tytan. The twins had fun watching him, too. Andrew even got held by his new buddy, Chloe. Fun times!

Wow!

Let me catch you up on our crazy life!

10. Had a big garage sale with my mom and Amy, love how people love my junk!
9. Enjoyed Braeden's and Charlie's birthday party! How fast a year goes by! Was able to introduce the twins to more family. It was a fun time.
8. Learned that packing with 3 kids was easier said than done! Graham helped a ton when he came down for the big move!
7. Had the bleeding wound on my nose checked out at derm. Found out it was cancerous. Referred to another doctor. I love the sun, the sun doesn't love me!
6. Loaned out Graham to help Amy get her things loaded in their Uhaul. Then, he came home and loaded ours.
5. Got up early to begin our drive north and to say goodbyes to my sister and her kiddos. Went well and only had to stop once! Excited, sad, happy, nervous...
4. New house filled with boxes. Slowly but surely they are getting unpacked. I am learning to not stress about them...yeah, right.
3. To cities for nose surgery. Went fine. Now waiting to see how it heals. Might need a skin graph, but praying that I don't! Will find out next week.
2. Cleaned up my classroom. Hard to do this year with not finishing the year and knowing that I won't be back next year. Bittersweet. So glad Les (my principal) let me keep my things in my room! So glad I had the pizza party with my class.
1. Stopped by my cousin's Grad Party on our way back t0 Duluth. Once home, had to buy Sean a new bike. He got the same one that he has in Mankato, and he got to ride it through Walmart! He thought he was the bomb! (he is!) Now we are able to take long walks; me pushing the babes in the stroller and Sean riding his bike! Awesome! Now, rain and cold need to go away...bring on the sun and warmth.

Now, I am back online after not having Internet for awhile. Feels good to be connected. I will post pictures soon. Everyone is getting so big!

Mother's Day

I feel so blessed to have 3 little miracles! Today is a day for me to reflect on my life and how we have gotten to where we are now. It hasn't always been an easy road for us. We have had lots and lots of bumps and detours, but it has been an amazing ride! We are so lucky to have one another!

Sean and Graham went shopping together and spoiled me this year! I got beautiful roses, the sweetest cards, and a new patio set! Super excited, as I have been wanting a new one since we sold our last one with the North Hill house. I am super picky, and Graham did a perfect job :) Can't wait to get up to Duluth and rock in my new chair! Thanks, honey!

Happy Mother's Day to all my family and friends! Hope you enjoyed your day, too :)

Time Flies!

I can't believe that our twins are already over 2 weeks old! Where does the time go? Their little personalities are really coming out. Isaac is my easy going, nothing ever bothers him, kind of kid. Andrew loves to eat and wants to eat all the time, hence he lets us know when he is awake :) Both love to cuddle, and they really enjoy being next to each other. Sean's voice calms them down, and he is a big helper with getting nuks and blankets. Sleep is precious for us parents, but we knew that going in. I am looking forward to being with Graham and getting the middle of the night help on a regular basis. Whether he gets up and changes pants, rocks them, or simply keeps my side of the bed warm, I really miss not having him around every night. Our time is coming soon!

Sean is doing awesome! He is totally into his "babies," trucks, bike, and movies. He loves playing with his friends and always has lots to say. He is sneaky...likes to stay up late..."borrows" my camera to takes random pictures. He is more fun than words can describe.

We are so blessed to have 3 healthy and happy little boys. They are our miracles, and we thank God for them every day.
