So, I never have anything interesting to write about, so yet again I am just going to put up some pictures.  My sweet little baby Will is just growing everyday!  He is such a little ham and smiles anytime I bring the camera around.  By the way, he is sitting in his carseat, and my mom made the cutest carseat cover for him.  I have had so many people ask me if she has a business because they want to pay to have one made.  I have two pregnant friends who have asked for one, random people at the store, etc.  I told Keith about it, and of course his response was, "You should learn to sew so you can have a business making them."  HA!  I have no clue how to sew, and I don't think it is just something you pick up and can do.

On to Hannah Grace-  Here is our typical picture-she is always running around with either no clothes on or her clothes on backwards.  She insists on wearing her underwear backwards as a thong- they should make baby thongs!

...And here she is 10 seconds later

And here are big brother and little brother before we went to the zoo for father's day.  June 2008 030

 Some days I feel like it is so hard trying to balance everything with the kids and housework and working from home and everything else with life, but it is totally worth it.  I wouldn't trade it for anything.  I love my family!

We're Smiling!

May 2008 038

 

Will started smiling on Memorial Day, and I took this picture last week.  He is such a big baby- he is so chubby and sweet!  He has all of these rolls on his arms and legs, and he's just huge.  He has already grown out of his 0-3 month clothes and is totally filling out 3-6 month clothes.  What is going on with this baby!  He also has had really bad skin the past week, and it won't go away.  He has red, dry patchy areas all over his face and neck.  At first, I thought it was a heat rash, but it won't go away, so I am thinking it must be something else.  He has an appointment next week, so I was going to talk to his doctor about it.  It's hard to believe he is 8 weeks old today!

Congratulations to my brother, Jeremy, for finishing his first marathon this weekend and getting 28th place out of over 2000 running in the Kentucky Derby Marathon in Louisville (over 12000 if you count those running in the mini-marathon).  He was 9th in his age group and finished in 3 hours and 4 minutes.  How cool! 

And here are a few pictures of the kids- loving on each other and then all smiles for the camera (although William looks a little confused about it all).

Well, we finally had our sweet baby boy- 4 days overdue!  The labor and birth went great, and things at home have been going very smoothly as well.  In fact, going from two kids to three kids has been an easy adjustment for everyone.  Tyler and Hannah are both very good with the baby, and baby Will has been doing great too!

The big due date has come and gone...and I am still here at home waiting on something to happen!  I can honestly say that I am not in a real hurry to have the baby except that my mom is here staying with us and has come down to help, so I want to have the baby soon just for that reason.  I want her to be here for at least a day or two after I come home from the hospital because I know that it will really hectic at first, and I don't think she will want to be away from my dad for more than a week.  I am feeling totally fine most of the time.  The worst part is just the waiting thing when you know it is going to happen anytime but you just don't know when!
