Innocent

All cleaned up and off to church.  They clean up well and appear so sweet and innocent.

Quality cousin time

Brendan begged every single day last week to go play with Cole and Maddy.  You'd think it had been weeks since he'd seen them.  I decided to try to get a few pictures of them together.  Note to self:  When dealing with squirmy kids, do not play the freeze game to get them to sit still.  Brendan and Maddy froze their expressions as well.  And do not invite Owen to join in the pictures.  If he's not invited then he willingly joins the fun.  Even if only for a very brief moment.

An Angelversary

They say:

You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone.

Truth:

You knew exactly what you had; you just never thought you'd lose it.  

Today marks one year since we lost Noah.  It's funny how it seems like so long ago and like it happened yesterday all at the same time.  

How quietly you came into our world.  You were only here for a short time, but what an imprint you have left upon our hearts.  We miss you every day, Noah!!  xoxoxo

Saturday was the perfect day for a movie.

Getting Warmer

Owen actually held Josiah today.  It only lasted 2.3 seconds but that's beside the point.

Outdoor Men

With all the warm weather that we've been having we have spent a lot of time outside going on adventures in the woods, swinging, going for walks, just playing.  We have been going for a walk every night.  They pile up in the wagon and off we go.  They are loving it.  The only downside is that wood ticks are out in full force and we've seen some mosquitoes already too.  Ugh.  

Poor old dog.....15 years old and deaf as can be but still has a twinkle in his eyes

Cool dude

Filthy face

World's Coolest Aunt

I tried to get picture proof of it with Josiah, but I'm afraid this picture won't convince anyone that is what is going thru his tiny little head.

I did NOT pinch him

Fast forward a few minutes....it's clear who he's dreaming about.  

Josiah -5 weeks old

Luck of the Irish

 Before bed the night before St. Patrick's Day, I helped Brendan set a Leprechaun trap.  He was SURE that we would catch one.  We used rainbows to get it's attention.  We used a bowl of Lucky Charms as bait.  Once the trap was set he went to bed.

When he got up Saturday morning the trap had been tripped and he thought for sure he had one.  

Upon further investigation he discovered that the sneaky little somehow escaped the trap, but left a pot of gold behind.  

We were sooo close.  Maybe next year we'll get him.
