Sporatic Blog Posts...and Computer

Well it looks like blog posts are just going to be very sporadic!  Besides the crazy business life three kids bring, the computer just decides some days it will turn on...and some days it won't!  We need to figure out how to get it fix.  However, fortunately today it decided to turn on!

Here are the updates from the past week of our crazy life. 

Planting spring flowers! (Next will be planting of the garden, it just didn't help that the weather went from 80 deg to 40 deg this weekend.)

Brooke's 46 month pictures!  We continue to have sleeping issues with this little girl.  Besides the 20-30 minutes of sitting in her room each night waiting for her to fall a sleep, she is waking up most nights crying, and requires another 5-30 minutes to get her back to sleep.  Everything with little kids is a stage, but we sure do miss her excellent sleeping stage! (PS the fancy hairdo pictures are after daycare!)

As I noted above this past weekend was very, very cold, so we had to come up with inside fun activities.  Saturday, we spent the afternoon painting bird houses!

Mother's Day was also spent inside doing finger painting.  Best Mother's Day flowers I have received yet!

Don't worry baby Nate has been around with all this activity, he is just one mellow, sleepy, sleepy little guy!

First Hair Cut! (Brooke cutting Tyler's bangs a month ago doesn't count)

So at almost 4 years old & 2 years old I was finally convinced it was time to take Brooke & Tyler to get their hair cut.  (Maybe the constant nagging by my husband, and the treats he would take Tyler to his hair place without me also helped.) 

So here are the before pictures.  I mean its not like Brooke's hair was in the potty yet, or Tyler couldn't see at all!

Brooke was the nice big sister, and let Tyler go first at the hair salon.  (Or maybe wanted to make sure he survived without any pain...you be the judge.)  Tyler stayed super still, and enjoyed his lollipop the whole time.

And finally the finished product.  Brooke kept saying every time she looked at Tyler "I don't even know him, I don't even know him." These kids just aged a least a month or two with their new dos!

Plus check out how nice our tulips look!

Happy 1 Month Birthday Baby Nate!!

Despite the lack of sleep at night, the extreme exhaustion from the 103 temperature and mastitis, and constant noise through the house, I am absolutely loving being a mom of three kids!  We are trying to figure out how we will operate when I go back to work, but I am sure like with the other two we will figure it out.

According to my measurements, Nathan's current stats are: 11 lb 6 oz (50-75%); 21.5 in long (10-25%), and 15" head (25%). 

He is also getting better at his sign pictures.  This little guy is still in the "sleepy stage", and it seems if he isn't eating he is pretty much sleeping!  He eats about every 2-3 hours around the clock, and sometimes still gifts me with a 4 hour block in the middle of the night!  Just a very mellow baby, which is good mix with his crazy brother & sister!

Also, for Nathan's 1 month birthday, one of Nick's co-worker's wife owns a cake/cupcake business and made this super cute, super yummy (NO EGG) cupcake treat!

Anymore room?

I am sure Tyler would have actually liked a few more toys in his bed.  The real reason for the picture was the fact that Tyler agreed to go right to sleep tonight if he could wear his new flip flops from Grandma to bed!  Hey if that's all it takes...I'm in!
