Boys playing tonight

Party continued

Some more pics from the day....my best buds :-) (we missed you Amber)

J with some of his best buds (Adam you were missing :-(

Owen, Mason and Cade having some fun on the swings!

This was too funny....Emery and his friend Logan were wrestling on the trampoline :-)

Emery opening some gifts with his friends there to help.

And we can't forget sweet Owen....poor Jake didn't make it in the pics (he was sleeping a lot).

Happy 3rd birthday Emery.  You have grown into such a handsome, smart and funny boy!  We are so proud of you.  You are a wonderful BIG brother to Owen and Jake (well most of the time :-).  You are SO loved by your family and friends! 

Your mommy has been super emotional all day, I just can't believe 3 years have gone by already.  I told you that mommy feels sad because you are growing up and and your reply was "I am big like you now mommy, don't be sad".  I love you so much Emery....thanks for bringing your mommy so much joy the last 3 years!

Emery's birthday party!

We had Emery's 3 year birthday party today.....I wish I could take credit for this awesome cake but I can't!  Our friend Stephanie made it for him...Emery loves her, she was his music class teacher and as you can see she has more talent than one :-) 

Emery got really shy when everyone started singing happy birthday

but he came around as usual :-)

Happy 3rd birthday Emery!!!

Happy 3rd birthday Emery Quinn!!!! Look how you have grown.....from a beautiful newborn, to 1 years old to 2 years and now such a big boy at 3 (we'll get a pic later :-)!!!

We love you SO much Emery......your party is tomorrow!!!

I LOVE YOU JAKE ALTON!

I am SO in love with this baby.  He is such a sweetheart.  He will be 7 weeks old in a couple days, how did that happen?  He just grew out of his newborn size clothes.  I was pretty sad putting them away since I know this is our last baby.  The newborn phase goes by so quickly.  He still makes the newborn sounds and everything but he is growing so fast!  I weighed him yesterday and he weighed in at 11.4 pounds!

First smiles for all my baby boys!

It was fun to look back at pictures of the 3 baby boys and their first smiles!!!! You can click on the collage and it will get bigger :-) 

They are in order....Emery (top left), Owen (in middle) & Jake (bottom right).

One sleepy mommy!

Jason got home last night from a business trip.  It was a LONG couple of days/nights without him and I guess my fatigue caught up with me.  I fell asleep with Jake on the couch and he snuck in

a few pics :-)

This is what happens when you let your kiddos eat unsupervised :-)  We have been trying to let Owen use utensils by himself but as you can see, it doesn't always go well!

The many faces of Jake

These were all taken this am.....gotta love the many facial expressions of Jake....he is such a sweetheart!

I LOVE Spring

I love the Spring....especially at our house because the wild flowers come out every year at this time and the mountains are so green.  The boys and I went for a little walk below the backyard when Jake was napping this afternoon. 

Owen got very excited to see the flowers :-)

Could he get any cuter?????

Happy 6 weeks Jake!

Jake is 6 weeks old today!  He is changing so much....smiling lots!  He seems to enjoy his activity mat.  He is cooing and talking to me lots throughout the day :-)  Gets up at least twice a night but is really good at eating and going right back to sleep. 

He doesn't love tummy time but tolerates it for a few minutes.

I can't believe he is 6 weeks already!

It's happening.....

It is happening...Owen is starting to talk more :-)  In the last 2 days he has said "hi" and "papa" (yay papa tony :-)  Today he copied me and said "car".  This is HUGE progress!!!  We had Owen evaluated by a speech therapist and we are on the waiting list for services.  So, I am thrilled that he is beginning to make progress on his own.  We love you Owen Anthony and can't wait to hear what you have been storing up

in there :-)

He took a spill in the driveway the other day and scraped his little nose pretty good.
