T-ball

Today was James' first time to play any kind of organized sport. Since he likes to wear helmets and is too young for football we decided t- ball was the next best thing. His team is the Cardinals (I have to remind myself this is not considered cheating on the Braves). Ansley was the best cheerleader out there. She also made a friend with one of the other boys sister. Henry cheered from my arms and made sure everyone heard what he had to say!!
This is how James' started off....







Daddy got chosen to help coach the boys!


Once he was sure we weren't leaving he started enjoying himself.























And what was the most important thing he learned about baseball today...
The correct way to stand like a ball player!

A day at the spa

One of Ansley's classmates had a birthday party at the glamour spa today!! Nails, facials, and hair what else does a girl need!!













Big brother

James likes to step in when Ansley is busy! Thankfully Henry is patient and not picky on how he gets the milk.

3 months





Happy 3 month to our sweet baby. Yes, three times is a charm. Henry is the picture perfect baby. He is patient with his siblings who want to entertain him and love on him all the time. He loves to talk to us. He still sleeps for 7:30 until 5:00 or later. He drinks anywhere from 5.5 oz to 6 oz of breast milk for four bottles and then the last two bottles of the night he gets formula which is each 6-7 oz. He likes riding in the car ever since Ansley moved next to him. She feeds and entertains him while in the car. Between feelings he will play for up to two hours and then nap for two hours. He loves his schedules! The other night in the bath he found his feet. He was so excited. Tons of splashing and cooing. I can only hope this little guy continues to be laid back!

Picture day

Today we got our pictures taken for the church directory. I am not a fan of pictures in a studio with young kids. Most of the time I do pictures with a photographer outside of a studio. It is just easier! We got a good shot of all three of the kids together. Below are some pictures after the life touch pictures.






This was her posing!!










He likes to accessorize his outfits. I was able to get the sunglasses off. The backpack was not worth the battle. I am just thankful the helmet did go with us. V












These are the best way to represent having three kids! Not a dull moment and not a chance that they are all doing the same thing.










Lysol week

This week was a crazy one. I went on high anxiety watch because my sisters family came down with the puke bug. One would get well the next one would be down. So I was determined to Lysol my world every second of the day. I am praying this worked.
We got James' t- ball schedule this week. He starts practice on Tuesday and then games are on Saturday until May. This is the first organized sport he has played!!!
Ansley had a good week. She had her first field trip to the teaching museum. The only thing she would tell me about the trip was how much she liked riding the bus. Then on Thursday night she had a sleepover at my parents house. She loved every minute of being an only child.




She read many books to them. She is obsessed with Dr. Seuss!! Green Eggs and Ham is the book her face is always implanted in. She reads everything these days. We pass a billboard and she is sounding it out. So you can only imagine the numerous questions I get about life right now!
Here are some pictures from the week.




The boys hanging with me while sister is away!




Friday night dinner with the family at DreamLand!!




Saturday morning Disney channel time!




He loves his bath( especially when he can take one by himself).




The kids have a cold so into a steam tent they went.




This picture is priceless. Hannah is my sisters one year old. Henry and she are 11 months apart. He is one pound behind her. Their hands are the same size. She could easily fit into 9 months and he can wear 6-9 months. The only difference between the two is that she has a teenager attitude and he has no clue how to do that yet.




She still likes playing and talking to him! Luckily he is Laid back so he takes it.
