May 2011

This past month has been a little crazy. Besides turning 31 earlier this month, I have also been raising three babies, packing for Japan and eagerly waiting for Tyler to come home. About a week ago Ty finally got into town. It has been so nice having him here. We've moved back up to his parents house for the last week, its been fun for them to spend some time with the kids before we head to Japan. Speaking of Japan, we'll be moving there Monday! I can't believe it is finally time for us to head over. We've gotten all the passports done, Charlie's paperwork done and loads of other paperwork and airline arrangements done. I'm excited to get to Japan, but I admit I'm a little nervous about traveling 30 hours with three babies and a puppy. At least Ty will be there as well as my parents. Anyway, yesterday we also helped celebrate the marriage of Ty's little sister Brooke! We're so happy for Brooke and her new husband Skyler. I'm so happy we were able to stay in town for the wedding. Below are some random pictures from the past month.

Needless to say, the kids were a little grumpy.

Ty got to attend the U2 concert on Tuesday with his family.

We had some Easter pictures taken a few days ago. Our wonderful photographer posted a few on her blog (www.jennyturkphotography.blogspot.com) and I couldn't resist posting them on our blog. We'll be getting the rest of the pictures later, but I can't imagine them being any cuter than the ones below. I am so overwhelemed that these three babies are mine, they are perfect!

Josh In A Box

I was getting Tyler's Easter package together when Josh decided to jump in the box. I think he wanted to get shipped over to see his daddy. He had so much fun playing in the box, makes me wonder why I buy toys? =)

Peek-a-boo!
Surprise!!

Yup, more pictures!

Pictures

I thought it was about time I posted some new pictures. Its crazy how fast time goes by when you have three little ones to take care of. I'm having so much fun being a mom, I've got the best kids! They are all doing well. Josh is so close to crawling, he can push himself up onto his knees and then he kind of sways a little before he goes down. I'm hoping he'll be crawling by time Ty gets home in 6 weeks. The twins are also doing well, and sleeping through the night (for the most part). Enjoy the pics!

Smile! Josh is one happy baby!

Me and my Boys Just chillin' Josh LOVES to roll around now. He got himself a little stuck the other day, but still managed to have fun while he was there.

Aren't I cute??

Don't let my sweet smile fool you....

Joshy is NINE months!

Josh turned nine months a couple days ago. I can't believe how big he is getting and he is growing up way too fast. We sure love this kid, he gets cuter every day. The past week he has really started moving around, he loves to roll from side to side and will work himself across the room. He can sit up all by himself and you can tell he can't wait to get crawling. We brought him to the park for the first time on his birthday and he LOVED the swings (I'll have to post a video later). He is such a cute little guy, so happy and loves to play. Enjoy the pics!
