Happy Birthday Blake!

One this day four years ago at 6:39p.m. teeny little 6lb.3oz. Blake William entered this world and stole my heart. I can’t believe that my baby is four years old. I told him that I couldn’t believe it this morning. He said to me all seriously and grown-up-like, “I know mom, because I don’t seem like your baby anymore.” I told him that he would ALWAYS be my baby! Happy birthday Blaker! ♥

 

BIG news!

The stockings are hung by the chimney with care…..yep, that’s right, all THREE of them! Ryan and I are excited to announce that baby #3 will be joining our family in June!

 

Thankgiving with sister

Mary and Shawn were able to come home from Denver for Thanksgiving!  It was great to have them home for the weekend.  We are sad that they cannot come back to Michigan for Christmas though :(.

I wanted a nice picture of Blake with his aunt Mary...you can see how that was working out for me...

 This one wouldn't be too bad if Blake was smiling...

 This is what happened when I asked Liv to get in the picture too....story of my life...ha.

Winter fun

This is our first full winter in our new home...and the home has an added bonus....a sledding hill right in the back yard!!  These pictures were taken in November after the 1st snowfall.  We since have gotten a better base for sledding!!

 

Little Liv checking out the hill...

 

My Blaker...the hill is pretty big...and fast!

Daddy and Liv ready to head down!!

My boys :)

Blake isn't sure about going himself...you can see by the snow on his hat that he did a face-plant, or two!! ha.

 

 wheeee....at the bottom of the hill!

 

 If only we didn't have to walk back UP the hill!!

Blake is so proud of his snowman....first one of the season!
