Let The Fun Begin!

We had a wonderful week with both sets of grandparents and great grandma. We are so grateful for the support they gave to Kamren and Andrew. It truly was a special weekend.



Sweet Dreams! Andrew at four weeks!



Kamren and Ashleigh had fun going to the driving range with their dad and grandpa Woolwine. The next day Kamren went golfing on an 18 hole course with his dad and grandpas. He loved it!


In all the excitement, Ashleigh lost her first tooth eating watermelon. It was quite the treat.


I made Kamren some prayer pretzels which was part of his eight day count down before his baptism. He loved picking out a scroll each morning and finding out more about baptism.



Everything was so special about Kamren's baptism. We are so grateful for his decision to be baptized.



His cousins from Wisconsin came to support him. He loved every minute with his cousin Aaron.



Kevin had the honor to baptize Kamren.





Grandpa Staples is teaching all of the children how to play the harmonica. Oh, it is so much fun to watch.



Here are the proud grandparents and great grandma of little Andrew. This is his special blessing day.





It was so fun to have so much family here.




We sure enjoyed eating good food. We couldn't have asked for a better week of good weather.



Oh, we love sweet little Andrew.



We had a blast at the Memorial Day parade. The kids loved catching all the candy.



Here's the 3 generations.

Here is Andrew at 2 weeks.



Here is Brynn at 2 weeks. I think they really look alot alike.



And this is me as a baby. My mom says Brynn and Andrew look just like me when I was a baby.

3 Weeks Old!

Andrew is content being fed, now we are just waiting for him to burp.



Kamren loves to be the big brother.



Ashleigh is our little mommy!



Andrew is a good little baby and enjoys his bouncy chair.

I can swing!

1 Week Old

We just love Andrew. He is so much fun to watch as he sleeps.



He's a great little sleeper.



I think we wore out daddy while he stayed with us for a week,but we are so grateful for all of his help.



Andrew really loves his bouncy seat.



He loves his swaddle blanket. I can't believe how well it works. He's so big that he seems to get out of a regular blanket quickly. The swaddle blanket has velcro and it works great.



Andrew is loving the dryer.



Kamren and Andrew are shy of two days being eight years apart. Kamren just started cub scouts and I get to be his leader. I'm very excited since I don't know anything about scouts.

Andrew Warren is HERE!

Here is me right before I delivered that day.



Here is Andrew's first moments of life. Andrew Warren was born on Friday, April 24, 2009. He weighed 10 lbs. 10 oz. measuring 23 1/2 inches long. We are so grateful he made it safely to earth. He is such a special blessing in our family.



Here is the midwife who delivered all three of our ten pound babies.



I am so happy he is here.



Here is the proud daddy of our sweet "big" boy.



Here is a friend's baby that weighed 7 lbs. 2 oz. and Andrew who is 10 lbs. 10 oz. It was a huge difference. I had no idea what a difference a few pounds can make.



Here are the proud siblings visiting their new brother at the hospital.



Sweet little Andrew. We think he looks alot like Ashleigh and Brynn.



Here is Andrew's coming home outfit that Brynn picked out for him.



Brynn loves holding Andrew! She adores him.



Brynn watches everything mommy does and even started nursing her own babies. She truly is a good helper along with her siblings.

Happy 6th Birthday Ashleigh!

Ashleigh just turned 6 yesterday on TAX day! She was the biggest baby born that day in the hospital. She was a whopping 10 lbs. 6 oz.



Here's Ashleigh enjoying her breakfast.

We wanted to make her day special yesterday so she chose to have scrambled eggs, toast and orange juice for breakfast. Kamren was so excited to make the eggs for her. She loved eating on the special birthday plate. I put up posters all over the wall when she walked out of her room and I put confetti all over the floor and streamers hanging from her doorway. She just loved it. She was radiating all day and had fun bringing chocolate chip cookies to all of her classmates. Brynn put in all the ingredients for the cookies. She loved the pencils she got from her principal and teacher. It's so amazing at how excited and happy children are with the simplest things. We got a free meal at Red Robins for her for lunch and free coldstones ice cream. She was surprised by her dad when he picked her up from school and they ate together. She loved that time with him.




She opened all her presents after breakfast and had fun playing with them all day. She loves her grandmas and grandpas.



This is Ashleigh a few weeks ago at her birthday playdate. She had a few friends over to celebrate her upcoming birthday. She decorated the cake by herself.



Ashleigh is excited to announce that she has three loose teeth. She can't wait until her first tooth will fall out.



She chose to have ice cream sandwiches on her birthday for dessert after dinner. I sure loved the idea. She chose spaghetti and corn for dinnner.

We are so grateful to have Ashleigh in our family. She is a sweet spirit and very loving.
