We have been some busy bees!

I don't know about the rest of you that live here in Ohio but I have been loving this awesome weather! I feel so much happier and a lot more productive. Heck about a week ago I rearranged my entire living room by myself. (well I did have to step over a few children in the process). But I did it and it looks great. I also have been cleaning out closets moving out the bulky winter clothes to make room for the summer stuff. We finally moved Kaia into a big girl bed which by the way she loves. She cried for the first couple of nights and now she loves to dive in and burrow into the millions of pillows Matt puts around her. (We have safety rails up but I think he thinks she still might roll out of the bed...overprotective Daddy LOL). So now Gabriel finally has a crib he was sleeping in the portable crib my mom used when I was a baby! (yes, quite the vintage piece, I am surprise it is still functional especially with that big boy sleeping in it!) I came in one morning and his legs were hanging out of the end. He totally outgrew it poor boy. So now the boys room is finally complete and I am now working on getting Kaia's room redone. I have already called my creative "how to stretch a dollar" partner, my mom, to see how I can achieve that on this very tight budget we have. She had a white dust ruffle she wasn't using and has sent it my way! Woo hoo that's a start. But amid all the cleaning we have also found some time to play and really enjoy ourselves. My children are getting along so well and are really beginning to bond with one another. And their personalities have really began to bloom. The three of them all love to be outside so we did make a couple of trips a week to the park and here recently they love to play together in a big pile of toys. (Gabriel is in the middle for those of you who can't tell them apart.) And there you have it we have been some busy busy bees!

I know you are happy to get their rooms organized. Post pictures when you get finished. Kaia is slimming up while the boys are packing on the pounds! I wish I could see you and your kiddos!

ok so I have the funniest story for you...So I was on the computer today just looking at blogs and Ryker decided that he needed to sit on my lap while I was looking. He was being so restless touching everything and just bothering me, then I pulled up your blog and he sat back and smiled, waved and said Hi! I thought it was so cute!! He loves you guys!
