Presents for Noomi!

When you find out you are pregnant with number three a lot goes through your mind about your other two children transitioning after the third one comes. We had a rough day one day this week, but I am not sure if it was transition to the third baby or two really sad children from meme, aunt m and elijah leaving. There is always an aftermath of that. They seem so far to enjoy having baby noomi around and holding her and have been very patient with me. I appreciate their patience, which sometimes is more on their end than mine i hate to admit!

Big Girl City!!

Ever since Ruthie decided to potty train way before her mom was ready, it has felt like "big girl" city here. Ruthie moved into her big girl bed this week and there was no turning back for her. I won't compare our children on line like i do in real life, but ruthie did make becoming a big girl look a whole lot easier. Let's just say... she got in her bed and never got out til morning!!! Just fabulous!

I suppose I should update now!!!

Well I suppose now that I have a precious baby at home which equals three precious little girls... I need to show the world how beautiful they are. I am not going to promise anything, but i do know that the family 8 hours north and the family across the ocean would really appreciate it.

all the little girls love to hold baby noomi.... i too love to hold baby noomi!

Noomi - our lil piglet

Noomi Gilah Born!

A girl, hurray!!!

These are from long ago....

Just so you know... these are from quite a while ago and this was not the time of the girls' lives. Let me tell you. I thought... oh how fun.. playing outside in the snow and wow... was i wrong! There were tears by all under 3 and maybe some closer to 30, not really, but i wouldn't of been shocked. We lasted about 10 minutes, but as you see, jonathan had a good time building a snowman.

the red dress

This red dress is so loved by elly m. right now that she wants and asks to wear it constantly!!! So if you see lots and lots of pictures in it! don't worry i wash it all the time! These are some pics from when i didn't have a camera, but i took them on my phone... oh the red dress! they are only children with child like ideas once!

happy birthday jonathan!!!!!

We aren't getting any younger, but we sure are having fun!!! that sounds like a country western song somewhere.. maybe i should be a songwriter! we celebrated jonathan bright and early in the morning with his swedish pancake cake and his presents! then he went to work and we spent the day with fun friends and then we took jonathan to a vietnamese restaurant and to bella's house for cake. i forgot i had a camera so i will have to get pics from bella.

can you believe it???

It isn't my fault or maybe it is my fault??? but i lost my camera at my mom's house at Christmas and spent jonathan's birthday gift cards on a new camera for the family!!! I am most pleased because i feel as though i have really missed a lot of "kodak" moments these last couple of months!!! so here we are!!!
