Beach & Park!

We had a really fun weekend at the beach. The water was still really cold, but Corbin did not seem to mind. He really surprised Chris and I with how much he loved the ice cold water. His favorite thing to do was to ride on his "sled". It was pretty cute! There were a lot of jellyfish that had washed up on the beach, and he liked poking them with his water gun... such a boy!

Princess liked roaming the beach, and looking for shells. She also thought it was really fun to bury her toesies in the sand. She pranced all around the beach looking precious as usual..
Sophie and Claire!

Fun stuff!
Playing with the sand toys!
Sophie and Corbin enjoying the day!!!
Tonight we went to the park with Brooke, Jack and Grace. The kids had fun as always. Caroline was pretty happy in the swing. She just likes to sit back and take in all the excitement.
My girls!
Claire, Corbin and Jack love the park.
Corbs got a super precious new haircut from Grammy this weekend... it looks pretty stinking cute on him.
This baby just makes me smile. She is such a good baby! She just smiles at me all the time. She really likes Corbin and Claire. She loves to watch them run around, they really entertain her.
Sweet Grace! She is so cute!
My girls again..
Jack and Corbin thought it was so funny that each of them had a shoe fall off when they were getting out of the swing. It is the small things that make them laugh the hardest.
My beautiful kiddos. They really are happy kids for the most part. They love to be outside or on the move. I really try hard to do something outdoors with them as often as possible, because that is when they are the happiest.

No sound is sweeter then the sound of kiddos laughing!

Have I told you lately how much I love my kids?

All I can say is that I love my babies so much. I really can't explain just how happy they make me, or the feeling I get deep in my heart when they smile. The happiness these children bring me.. well I can't explain it.
Caroline Louise looks so precious in blue! It makes her pretty blue eyes sparkle!
Corbin & the girls went to a super fun birthday party yesterday. It was at a park, so we really enjoyed the nice weather. Corbin and his friends ran all around with their spiderman masks on. Corbin thought this was so awesome! He is such a boy! Constantly running, jumping, growling and just loving the outdoors.
My "big" kids
We all know how much my kids love giant inflatables...
Princess... Chris has called Claire "Princess" for a while know. It seems more and more people are catching onto this and she is now referred to as "princess" often... All I can say is my princess is growing up fast, and says some of the sweetest things. She often will just randomly tell Chris and I that she loves us.. talk about melting your heart. Don't worry though in the next sentence she will tell us her famous line "you are a bad boy/girl and you are not coming to my party!"
Having fun!
The kids had a great weekend. I love my weekends at home with Chris and the kids.

Swinging

Today we went to the park with Jack Jack and baby Grace. Caroline got to meet her friend Grace for the first time, so that was special! She also got in the swing for the first time! Brooke took this cute picture of her! I could kiss this sweet face all day long... ALLL DAY! Didn't get any pics of the other kiddos, because they were too busy having fun!

Fun in the Sun...

My two little artists. These two kiddos wake up asking for markers. They are often covered head to toe in marker, which means you can only imagine all the things in this house they have colored on.. They do make us some pretty cute pictures though.
I ordered these dresses for my girls, and let me tell you they look so precious in them.
My three super precious babies.
This weekend we got the slip and slide that Uncle Joseph got us out again. The kids really love it. Sophie came to have some fun too.
That's my boy!
This is how sweet Caroline enjoyed the day in the sun!

My baby boy is 4!

Hard to believe my baby boy is 4.
Dear Corbin,
You will always be my baby boy. You are so very special to so many people. You make my heart smile every time I look at you. You are such a beautiful little man. I love the way you have become so bossy! You love to tell everyone what they should be doing, and exactly how to do it. Unbelievable how you forget nothing. We have learned not to tell you that you can do or have something unless we fully intend for it to happen! School this year has been so wonderful for you. The things you have learned have truly amazed us. You are so happy, and you love to play. You are such a BOY! I love how you pretend to be spiderman and batman. When you are in character, it is priceless. I LOVE that you say the sweetest most precious things. When you tell me you love me, to have a nice day, or that I am your best friend you melt my heart. You and your Daddy are such great buddies, and I am so glad that you have such a good role model. You are your Daddy's BIG MAN & your Mama's bubby. I really can't put into words how much I love you, or how I feel about you. The day you were born you made us parents, and that was the best day. We are so thankful for you, we are so proud of you, we are so in love with you, and you truly just make us happy. Thank you Corbin for being the best little boy in the world. Thank you for filling my heart with so much happiness. Claireb and Caroline are so lucky to have you as a big brother. I know you will always look out for them. Happy birthday to my precious boy. I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always ... forever and ever my baby you'll be.
I love you...
Mama
