Sick Babies

Well, after two years of avoiding the stomach bug, I am very sad to say it has decided to come visit and refuse to leave our house. It all started on Tuesday evening at dinner. Allie-Parker refused to eat, which should of been my first clue something was wrong! Ever since that night it has been taking us down one by one :(

We have separated Riley-Anne for the 100th time this month. Before the stomach bug we all had super high temps and coughs... just when everyone started sleeping through the night again in comes relentless barf. Ugh, sorry that is gross, but true ;)

I just keep telling myself, "We will live through this". At least I hope so!

Sisters?

Would you guess that we are sisters?

Procrastinating Momma

Hi, my name is Riley-Anne. You have no idea how much I weighed or how long I was when I was born because my mom has taken almost 3 months to decide on a birth announcement for me. Well, check your mail boxes people! She ordered them today so you will all be "in the know" soon.

Explosive Diapers

Got to love that my first post for the new year is about diapers- but hey, this is my life!

I have never experienced an "explosive diaper" until now. Riley-Anne's diapers have gotten so wild that I have been throwing away at least one outfit a day! That is ridiculous people! To top it all off- it doesn't even bother her! The other day she was playing on her mat just cooing away and I picked her up and POOP was all the way up her back and in her hair! Again, ridiculous!

Floor Day!

The old, stained, and frankly just gross looking carpet is outta here! Ryan and his Dad put new floors in our kitchen, dinning, living room and hallway in TWO days! They are floor laying machines :) It looks so awesome. I would love to show you a picture, but again, Riley-Anne is asleep in our room where the camera cord is and I am afraid of her... seriously.

Moving out

We are moving the computer out of Riley-Anne's room (also known as mine and Ryan's bedroom) so hopefully I will be back to blogging soon!

We are still here!

RILEY-ANNE IS HERE! Well she has been here for four weeks... but we are a little busy with three babies so give me a little credit :) She is perfect, beautiful and such a sweet little miracle. We are beyond in love. Speaking of being busy with three... Garrison just woke from his nap, so...

I will leave you with one of my favorite songs. This was sung at our wedding and now it is Riley-Anne's "night night song" (all of our kids have certain songs that we sing to help calm them or put them to sleep). The words to this song have always been so powerful and special to me. Hope you enjoy!

How great are You Lord

How great is Your mercy

How great are the things

That You have done for me

How great are You Lord

Your loving kindness

Is filling my heart as I sing

How great are You Lord

How great is Your love

It reaches to the heavens

How great is the heart

That sought and rescued me
