Farewell Barbecue

We had a barbecue because the Salmons are moving. It was so fun to get together--whenever we do, I always think we need to do it more often.

You knew this was going to be a good one Mike!

What a good daddy--and look at those luscious lips!

I loved this! All the kids just love Jadee!

I have been looking forward to this. Remember the post a few months back with all the pregnant girls. well here is the fruit of our labors. They all were going to be boys, but Gracie ended up being a girl...for all the boys to fight over.

I love this one too!

It was a great time! Lots of laughs, ice cream cones leftover for Jeff and I throughout the yard, and much more. Thanks again everyone for coming! We'll miss you Bryant and Meredith!

My big babies

we took these two to the doctor and they are 10 and 11 lbs!! That is about triple their birth weight. It is just amazing how babies grow. At this rate, they should be 420 lbs and 27.5 feet tall by age 20! Keep growing boys!

She loves her socks, funny girl!

Memorial Day Weekend

We had a good ole time visiting my family in Idaho. Scott got to try out the bumbo chair and he thought he was pretty big!

The golf cart was a definite favorite! All the kids loved it!

These guys went golfing one day.

My sister, Rachel babysat Kate so well ovr the weekend!

It was great to see so much family! It was also just nice to get out of town and be in a different place. Thanks for having us!

Thank you Hershey's...

for helping me get through the day.

More pictures soon to come of our 10 and 11 lb babies!! I can't believe it!

Things that make me smile...

I love how Kate loves her two babies, carries them around, burps them, and has to have them to sleep with (along with her puppy, bear and extra blankets).
I love how Kate helps these sweet babies, she is always sticking binkies in. Sometimes when I shower, I have her check on the babies and totally trust her, is this crazy?
Peaches. You might have to click and enlarge, but we have lots of peaches growing, I LOVE PEACHES!!
These 3 sweet kids. The boys are starting to get more alert and I love it. Crazy that we have 3 kids, but I feel so blessed to have them all here safe and sound.

18 oz of nothing but goodness

I woke up this morning and felt a little full. I pumped, and got 18 oz!!! That is a lot of milk! That is about 2 1/2 cups of milk--I should have made pudding with it!

From the mouths of babes...

Scott and Austin are smiling!

It is so great to see smiles! I love them, they are so darn cute!

Some of Kate's recent favorites

Kate LOVES her brothers. She is doing this all day and just hugging and cuddling them. I love it. It is so fun to see her loving her brothers.
She loves having her hair done "pretty"--usually pigtails. She has to have them taken out before nap time or bedtime though and ends up with these great looking wings, I love them!

She likes to pretend to go to sleep in our bed.

And she loves this little baby stroller and her two babies that she just pushes around all day (along with all of her little treasures)
She definitely keeps us laughing!

Easter

We had such a fun Easter! Kate got it this year with the Easter egg hunt and it was just so fun!




This is Kate's Easter dress that I absolutely love, I bought it right when she was born! She was ready for a nap when I took the picture, but I just love it!
