Just some pictures...

Abby asked, "Mom, have you blogged about my fashion outfit for Gwandma to see yet?"


The weather this week has been beautiful! I followed Scott's advice and said, "YES" to the kids request to play on the trampoline in their swimming suits. 74 degrees in January is
just the kind of weather I would order.
I stayed inside and caught smiles of this one...wishing I had a thousand dollar camera that would instantly snap the shots....but even without, so cute!
People always ask if he is a good baby. My response is always, "No not really.... but we love him anyway." He isn't always fussy, he just loves to be held. We've discovered recently that he's more of a social creature. He's always happiest when having his diaper changed, we figure it's because he can see our faces and we talk to just him, not just talk to everyone else who happen to be around him. So, simply put he is a good baby as long as I am holding him. :) We enjoy each other's company. This is what Sir Isaac looks like when he's not happy....still cute.
Brynn is a huge help! She usually does her homework while I make dinner, but she's always quick to pick Isaac up and walk around with him when he fusses or when I need to hold Aaron.
Do other people who have children just want to keep having them so they can see what the next one looks like? Or is it just me? Sounds very responsible of me, doesn't it? It's crazy, but I love their cute individual faces! But then reality hits and I'm reminded of all the work involved (emotional, physical, spiritual, etc.) with taking care of these cute little human beings!
We are busy, exhausted, and at times overwhelmed, but happy and enjoying this phase we are in.

Cute pictures. I love to have babies to see how they all look, but I think I can't do it again. We'll see. I love Abby's fashionable attire. Whoa!

I love that Bryn is a helper! And that Isaac smile was adorable—so cute.

Jackson always needed to be held too, until he was about nine months old. He was my most difficult baby by far, but no one knew it because he was happy when I held him and I never put him down. :-/

Cute pictures. Your kids are growing up so fast. I love the family Christmas picture...how did you convince all your children that it is okay to match each other? :)

It is a busy phase... but busy in such a good way. It will be over all too soon. Good job recording the memories.

i have to say that i am a fan of the fashion outfit....and i am totally like that about wanting to have more kids just to see how they might look, it's so weird to think their could be thousands of different ways they could be a spin of our yourself.....

Amy, I just popped over to see your cute family. Your baby has gotten so big! I'm jealous of your nice weather. I noticed your friend Tatumn who last commented on this post. I met her last night at a baby shower and I tasted her delicious cupcakes. It's a small world.

I would take 74 degrees in January. Sure beats the -30 degrees of Wisconsin. Enjoy it! Very cute pictures.

I can't believe how big Isaac is already. They grow too fast. Your kids are cute!
