January 25th-28th

January 28th:




 January 27th:

Jeff says she is full of fire and brimstone.  She is a feisty one, this girl.  She may be the sweetest, happiest baby you have met, but if you wrong her in any way, beware.  You will be on the receiving end of a not so pleasant temper tantrum.

January 19th-24th



 January 24th



Confession:  Sometimes I like watching the coach more than watching the actual players.


January 25th

This boy right here.  He has come down with the flu and stayed home from school with me today.  It brought back a flood of memories.  He is not a little kid anymore and is growing up on us like crazy.  He is still and will always be our strong-willed, feisty, stubborn fighter.  

January 22nd
"Hey mom.  I have a cwush on a girl in my school. Wanna know her name?"

Unfortunately for him, his future wife has already been chosen. 


January 23rd
I am so in love with the age difference between my boys and this girl.  I love watching them love her. I love watching their gentleness with her.  I love watching them play dolls and princesses.  I love how she loves them and lights up the second they walk in the door from school.  

January 20th

The pinewood derby.  Poor Cole.  We did not spend the time on the car that we needed to and he came in dead last.  He was not the least bit thrilled and was in the hallway crying at one point.  Lesson learned: do not procrastinate.


January 19th


I did have a couple other pictures I took today.  But this one pretty much sums up the day today.  Sick babies.  And everyone is pretty darn miserable.

January 12th- 18th

January 18th



And it has now hit this girl.  She is even worse off than Crew and I have been.  Fever of 103.  Wants to be held constantly.  I really like the snuggles.  I really hate her being sick.  

January 17th


Crew and Gigi.  He still is not feeling well.  Grrr.  So tired of the sickness.  

January 16th


The view from our balcony.  It is pretty awesome.

January 15th


Pretty much sums up every day at our house.  

January 14th


Happy birthday to one of the best people I know.  I still count my lucky stars every single day that he somehow became mine.  

January 13th


This sweet boy woke up today for about three hours total.  He slept for 21 hours in a 24 hour period.  He obviously didn't feel well.  I feel like someone has been sick since Christmas.  I am really ready for flu season to be over with!

January 6th- 11th

January 11th:

Crew and his favorite gift he got for Christmas.  Sometimes I think it has caused more problems than it is worth between three boys fighting to get on that thing... but they love it.  And I keep telling myself that is all that matters in the midst of the 'discussions' of who's turn it is to go next.

                                                                       January 10th:


Crew's first game.  It was too adorable for words.

January 9th:

Basketball has begun again.  Three boys.  Three different teams.  It is busy, but is by far my favorite sport to watch them play.  They are obsessed.  Especially this boy right here.  He wants to be a professional basketball player one day and you rarely find him without his ball these days.



January 8th:


Somehow I ended up with two pictures today.  And I couldn't choose which one to use.  The one on the top makes my heart go pitter patter.  That face.  She makes me happy.  

January 7th:



January 6th:


   The spoiled princess gets her own room, while the three boys share the smaller room.  Sometimes they complain about sharing, but I think they secretly love it.  Sometimes we will sit outside the door and listen to what they are giggling about all night.  Sometimes they end up in trouble because they can't help but bug each other.  (It is in their genes apparently.)  Sometimes they fall asleep in seconds.  Some nights it takes way to long.  Those nights one boy ends up in our bedroom.  This phase will be over in the blink of an eye and although some nights I want to pull out my hair, I love knowing that they will always have each other.

January 1st- 5th 2015

JANUARY 5th:


Sticks, an endless amount of energy and lots of imagination between these two today.  It makes my heart happy when they play so well together.

JANUARY 4th:


We kinda like her around here.  A lot.  She finally got to wear her Christmas dress today.  The crinkly nose and those teeth get me every time.

JANUARY 3rd:


A nakey baby with her baby.  Only one and already all girl.  With all the sass to prove it.

JANUARY 2nd:


I kinda like this boy a lot.  I do not like the fact that he decided to grow up on me and lose his two front teeth.

JANUARY 1st:
Happy New Year people.


All right.  Here we go again.  A picture every day for a year.  I want to kick myself for not finishing this last year, so we are going to try it again and, so far so good.  Five whole days and all caught up.  But who is counting, right?!
