My Sweet Babies

I have been thinking a lot lately about how lucky I am to have all three of my babies. I am so thankful that they are all healthy and happy and a part of our family. I can't imagine not having them in my life. They make me smile, laugh, cry, and sometimes they even make me crazy and I love every minute of it! I love each of them for the sweet little spirits they are.

COOPER
My first baby, My little man. He is so smart and talented! He does well at everything he does. He is always the smallest kid on his team or in his classes, but it doesn't phase him...I have enjoyed watching him in basketball this year. So little but so much heart and determination. He never gave up and he was the fastest kid out on the court in every game. He has such an outgoing personality and is a friend to everyone and his smile gets me every time. He takes his part as big brother very seriously and is always helping Griffen and now Lucy. He is always very compassionate and seems to always know when I need a hug. I hope he never changes, he will go far in life with all that determination, I know it! Whatever he does in his life I know he will do well. I hope he is always happy, I love him so much!




GRIFFEN
Griffen is my little deep thinking comedian! He makes me laugh with the things he comes up with. Sometimes he reminds me so much of me. This year in our primary program he had a speaking part. He totally knew his part but he got up there and was embarrassed so he acted all silly and like he didn't know his part. In any class he's ever been in from day care, nursery to pre-school to primary to kindergarten the teachers have always commented on what a little personality Griffen is and what funny things he says or asks. He always has questions he wants to learn. I remember once he was watching Aunt Tiffany bake a cake, he wanted to help and had a question for every step. I hope he never stops wanting to learn and ask questions. He is my love and always has plenty of hugs for me and is always there to defend me or be on my side.




LUCY
Sweet Little Lu Lu. She has only been part of our family for a little over three weeks but, I can't believe how much love and happiness she has brought into our family. Her presence in our home is so calming. I have loved watching my husband melt at the sight of his baby girl and watching my boys want to love and protect their sister. I love to just hold her and look at her sweet face and just imagine what the future will be for her. Whatever she does I hope she knows that she is loved. It will be my pleasure to watch her grow up, hopefully not too fast. I am enjoying this tiny newborn stage, I know it will pass way too fast. I love the way she smells, how when I hold her up on my chest I can smell her warm little breath, I love her baby soft skin, and the wrinkles under he neck...pretty much everything!
