Song to my sweet babies

Your baby blues, so full of wonder
Your curly cues, your contagious smile
And as I watch, you start to grow up
All I can do is hold you tight

Knowing clouds will rage
And storms will race in but you will be safe in my arms
rains will pour down, waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

Storybooks full of fairy tales
Of kings and queens and the bluest skies
My heart is torn just in knowing
You'll someday see the truth from lies

When the clouds will rage
And storms will race in but you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down, waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

Castles they might crumble
Dreams may not come true
But you are never all alone
Because I will always, always love you

When the clouds will rage
and storms will race in but you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down, waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms, in my arms

Baby Noah Update

Noah is almost 6 weeks old :( sniffle. Where does the time go??? Our little guy is so much fun and as his big brother puts it, he just gets cuter and cuter every single day! He is starting to smile, which absolutely melts his Mommy, and is just so much more alert everyday. He weighs 11lb 3oz already! Which means he has been gaining an average of just over an ounce a day! His sweet little chubby, kissable cheeks just gets chubbier and more kissable everyday. He is such a little cuddle bug, when he gets fussy he likes his binky, a blanket right by his cheek, and he wants to be held as close as possible (Mommy has no problem with this) I'm pretty sure he got in the "cute line" (as my Mom puts it) and the "melt Mommy's heart" line several times!! What did we ever do without this sweet little boy?? His Brother and Sister still think he is the cutest, sweetest thing ever and they can't get enough of him!! None of us can! Jax and Ella are such big helpers with Noah, they have absolutely no problem wiping up his spit up and if he looses his binky in the car and starts crying, they fight over who gets to give it back to him. When I don't have time to sit and nurse him, they love to be the ones to feed him a bottle and they hold him as much as they can during the day.
I can't believe how fast he is growing up and to be honest...it makes me a little sad. Everyday I tell him not to grow up too fast, but, I also say that to his big brother and sister and none of them seem to listen to me! As hard as it is to see them grow up so fast it's also so amazing to watch, it's very bittersweet. I love all three of them more than anything in this world and I hope they always, always know that. Yes, I know im being a little cheesy, but, im allowed to be when it comes to these three cuties!!!
Here are some recent picures of our little Noah

Swimming Lessons

Jax, Gabe and Ella recently started swimming lessons again this summer. We found a GREAT teacher who comes to my Dad's house and teaches the three kids privately. She is so good with the kids and the kids love her, I think Gabe may even have a little crush on her! All three of them are doing great and they really seem to be catching on! So proud of them!
