Eve

We finally had our baby! Eve was born at 8 pounds, 9 ounces, 21 inches long- smaller than the other two! The delivery was painful- but better than the other two and I did it without an epidural which was probably the best part of all. They just don't agree with me, I've decided. I have been floating on cloud nine ever since. She is beautiful, healthy and angelic. I wish I could post pictures, but our home computer is packed and this laptop keeps trying to format my camera card which scares me. You will all have to wait til we arrive in Utah to see just how beautiful our new daughter is. She takes my breath away...
Time to leave the hospital and our journey to Utah begins!

Celebrating with Family




To top it off, we had a cook-out with cousins at our house. Wells absolutely loves his cousins and we knew this would be the perfect ending to his birthday weekend. I wish I had gotten some more pictures of him with his favorite girls. He managed to get more gifts, including a super cool CARS lego set that he hasn't stopped playing with since.

Birthday Camp-Out!







Wells wanted a race-car themed birthday party. He also wanted to go camping this summer. Seeing as my days of parties and camping are numbered (and so is my energy level!) we decided to combine his ideas into a camping, race car, birthday bash! We were a little worried about the weather forecast which called for rain, but ended up getting very lucky with only rain in the middle of the night and a bright, sunny morning to dry out all our gear! Wells loved having his friends along and celebrating outside- his favorite place to be. I think the main attraction ended up being the campfire, but luckily we came away with only minor scares and no burns to speak of. Overall, I would say our birthday camp-out was a success. Happy Birthday to my favorite little guy.

Happy Birthday, Buddy!




We can't believe our little boy is three years old! This weekend we celebrated with a special birthday dinner with his cousins, gifts, and a birthday camp-out with friends, race-car themed! It was busy and fun! Here are some pictures of Wells' birthday morning. He scored his first baseball glove, some pool toys, a bongo drum and lego set from Mom, Dad and Nora. On his birthday we went to a spray park with friends and then had planned to go out for ice cream after dinner but the poor little guy came down with an ear ache and didn't feel up to it. Nora and I ran out for some tylenol and grape popsicles to bring home while Wells watched a movie with Dad- a real treat in this house!
