Emerie is 4 months old already. She started laughing on March 31st - my favorite gift! She is also rolling and squirming all over the place. Rylie is still adjusting(mommy is too). It is quite a blow to get knocked off your "baby of the family" throne. Daisy seems to like that she is not the only middle child. We are loving our life with four little ones. Enjoy our latest photos!

The "Big" Kids

McCarthy, Daisy and Rylie are also growing so fast.  Here are a few photos of the fun and funny things they have been doing lately. The girls love to dress up and dance to Vivaldi or Beethoven.  I don't know if they would approve of the purple socks...  The girls also love to play anything requiring their imagination.  Here is a picture of them playing queen and servant(I think) under our dining room table.  Daisy is so sweet and has this adventurous side of her that reminds me so much of my sister Destiny.  Actually, there is lots about her that reminds me of Des. She doesn't look anything like her, but makes some of the same gestures and faces. Crazy!  McCarthy loves to be goofy.  I think the kids putting on crazy outfits was his idea.  Last is a picture of the kids with some of their best friends and neighbors(the Campbells) at a really cool park.  We are having lots of fun!

Emerie is 3 months old!

Time is flying by.  It amazes me that our little Emerie(affectionately called "baby M" or "Babers") is no longer a newborn.  She grows bigger  and sweeter by the day.    Her smiles are precious just like the little noises she makes.  We love this little gift so much.  The other kids are quite smitten with her too and can't resist a hug or kiss when she is close by.  I am trying to catch the little moments with her that will be gone before I know it.

Daisy is a natural!

Jason, I thought you would appreciate this one.  For everyone else, this is my brother David. And yes...he is a nut.  
McCarthy and Emerie with their cousin Adelae who lives in California.  We had so much fun when they visited and are so thankful for airplanes!
Notice the mohawk.

So sweet!

McCarthy LOVES his new little sister.  He holds her every chance he can get.
I can not believe that we have 4 kids!  Amazing gifts from God, making our lives to much richer.  Stretching us in ways we could never have imagined.  Thank you Father for your sustaining grace.
Aunt Megan and Uncle Jonf gave the kids these lollys.  What fun they had, what a mess they made!

Newborn photos

I had a good friend offer to take photos of Emerie. I have never had newborn photos professionally done, so I LOVE these! Enjoy!
