Middle Mayhem

Mister is keeping me on my toes these days.

3 is an incredible age of major brain activity.  He is trying everything he thinks looks like "a good time".  Even, if it's destructive, messy, dangerous and especially life jeopardizing. 

Decorated himself with nail polish

Oh, he is completely ornery and so stinking cute.

It's difficult.

He also refuses to wear clothes.  Unless it looks like a cape.
Seriously starting to wonder if he is going to outgrow this...?


On top of the dining room table...
(Please notice, the lack of clothes in all photos!)

Super blessed to be the mama of such amazing children.  :)

Firstborn

Cooper is the greatest at making us laugh and being creative and clever.

He has a tendency to find trouble with all these gifts, but they are gifts, regardless.

His last day of kindergarten was a couple of weeks ago.
I cried tears of pride and sorrow.
How can he be this big??

He loves school and is missing it, already!

He ran his first 5K with his daddy the same weekend.
He LOVES to spend time doing daddy kinds of things.
Cory was so very proud!

After the race, in desperate need of a haircut...

This firstborn child of mine is such a beautiful blessing.
An incredible challenge. Mercy, he can be such a challenge.
A true gift from Almighty God.

7 months

That's how long it has taken for me to post again.

Being a mommy of three darling children has taken me on a path of "no time for blogging or anything else".  My priority has been get through the day and make the most of every second I have with them.  I don't feel bad about it.  It is what it is.

But, I am going to try to post a little more frequently. 

You know, now that I feel I'm really getting the hang of this MOM OF 3 thing!
Kind of.

Here are a few recent photos of my babies.  They are all growing so quickly, and they enjoy telling me just how much they are enjoying becoming "big". 

Time slow down...

Fort making

Cooper spent most of April ill.
This is where he lived, on the couch sleeping.
Pneumonia, respiratory issues
and heart concerns kept us too busy.
Thankfully, he is much, much better.

Carter is very "3" right now.
Wild, opinionated, ornery.

Lucy is so mild tempered and easy going.
The boys are devoted to her. :)

Also, needed a new blog title.  Little lady Lucy doesn't have a "C" name.  So, change was in order.
