Happy TWO months!!!


Our sweet Levi turned two months on the 18th (I'm only a week behind...not too bad!).  Here is what our little guy is up to these days...


  • Still nurses about every 2-3 hours.  At night he will eat around 11 and then 3:30 and then is usually up around 6...not bad!
  • At his 2 month appt. he weighed 13 pounds 13 ounces and his height and weight are at the 75th percentile. 
  • He can be a cranky little man...usually from 6 pm till about 9...needless to say we are not dining out these days! 
  • He loves to be held!!!
  • He can TOOT with the best of them!!! He is soo stinky!!! I don't every remember my sweet little girls having stinky toots!!! It must be a boy thing!
  • LOVES bath time!!!
  • He is SOO loved by his 3 sisters, mommy and daddy!

New England Trip

We had a great time on our trip to New England.  We stayed in New Hampshire so we were 40 minutes from Boston and 10 minutes from Maine...so we were able to visit all of our favorite places!!! Here are some pics...lots of pics!!!
Boston









We went to the aquarium in Boston and I had to say I was a little disappointed...there was like a trillion people there and there really wasn't too much to look at.  The girls liked it but I think they would of been just as happy to go back to the hotel and swim!








They liked doing this more than visiting the aquarium...and it was A LOT less expensive!!!

















This place has the most amazing lobster rolls (Kittery, Maine)

More summer fun...

We have very busy here...not that we have been on the go but it's just been busy with 4 little ones! We did get to visit the zoo and make a trip to Niagara Falls which was fun.  Then on Sunday we leave for Boston for 3 days...hoping to make it to the aquarium in Boston-we shall see!  Here are some pics from the past couple weeks...

Of course I can't get a picture of Levi without somebody touching him...poor baby!
Ewww...I do not even like to look at this picture...yes this is MY daughter holding a frog!  For those of you who don't know...I have a fear of frogs (yes I can admit it is completely irrational!)...so to see my daughter holding one gives me the shakes!!
Daddy's lil Yankee fan!


Zoo
I love this picture...I think Abbie was afraid to turn her back to the lions in fear that they would come from behind and get her! :)
My little country girls milking the cow...

Niagara Falls
Some things never change...I have a picture of Sophie chasing birds last year!
This picture is for Aunt KeeKee!
My silly little Abbie!
Daddy and his girls!

I love my family!!!

7 years ago...


girls
Seven years ago I married the love of my life...little did I know that I would be able to fall even more in love with him over the next seven years...little did I know that seven years after saying "I do" I would take a picture of my four beautiful children holding a photo of us on our wedding day....little did I know on on our wedding day that several years down the road I would accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior and I would never be the same again...little did I know that I would begin to take God's path-not my own-and experience the greatest joy one could ever imagine! 


Greg is such an amazing man...I thank God everyday for Greg, our marriage, and our family...Not to say things are perfect...I know that will never happen here on earth but since embracing God's plan for us we have become a much stronger couple and stronger family.  I love what we have and would not change it for anything...Happy Anniversary Greg...Bootsie loves you!!!
