April Showers!

So I have had a lot of posts lately so I feel like April Showers is appropriate.  Not to mention all the rain and snow we have been getting lately.


Here is Kimber after church on Sunday.  We finally got her some new clothes which we are saving for her birthday in 2 months but we gave her one new dress to wear in the mean time.  Her dresses have become more like long shirts.


It took me a while to get a decent picture of her standing an kind of smiling.


What took even longer was a decent picture of these two together.


This was the best picture I could get of Benson smiling.  He takes after his Uncle Jordan in the picture arena and likes to make silly faces instead.


For some reason my kids liked getting piggly wiggly's from Auntie Brooke.


Kimber's turn for a piggly wiggly.  I gave her one then she asked for Brooke to give her one.


Naturally from giving piggly wiggly's we moved on to giving wedges.  Kimber started this trend but hers is not on video.  My kids like piggly wiggly's better than wedges though.  Yes my sister and I like to tease the kids a bit.


We have my niece for a few days while my sister is re-cooping in the hospital from her c-section yesterday.  I gave Naomi a ponytail and I think she looks just so cute with her hair up!


Most of you have heard the horror stories of Kimber bar fight attacking Naomi in the past.  Lately they have been getting along better which is better for me!!  They ate breakfast together yesterday at the kiddie table.  They really do like each other.  As Brooke mention on her blog, they have been holding hands when they are walking around outside and stuff like that.  I feel there is a light at the end of this tunnel!


McKay has really liked feeding himself lately, to the point of giving a blood curdling scream if I even try to even help with a different spoon.  I am not ready for him to not be my baby anymore.

As I mentioned earlier I have my niece right now which means I have a new nephew!  Sylas Alexander was born yesterday at 5:56, if I remember that right, and weighed 9 lb 13 oz.  Daniel and I took Naomi down to see Mom and Dad last night and to meet Sylas.  He was eating the whole time we were there but seemed like a great addition to the family.  Hopefully later today we can go see him again and hold him.  We will see.  I don't want to overwhelm Brooke with my kids in the hospital so we may wait a bit on letting them meet Sylas.  Benson was pretty excited that he gets to share his birthday with Sylas.

Well that is about it.  I have run out of things to say and must face the facts.  I have to go do dishes, clean the house, make and cake and look after 4 kids today even though I am beat and want to watch 90210.  Yes I am watching that on Netflix and enjoy it.  One of my guilty pleasures is sappy teen drama soap operas!
