27

Well I turned 27 on Saturday. I can`t believe it. I never ever thought I`d be 27 with three kids, and look, Iam. We had Christmas on Sunday in Dilke, it was a good day, the kids all had fun and it was nice to see everyone.

We are celebrating our Christmas with our kids here tomorrow morning, the 24th, actually before Riley goes to work..lol... We bought Allie this 4 foot tall barbie house, Iam so excited for her to see it. It took 2 hours to set it up.. alot of patience.. and almost divorce papers..haha... It has chandeliers in it that light up, and even an elevator. It`s pretty cool and i know she will LOVE it!!!

We are headed to Quill Lake on Thursday morning till the weekend for there Christmas. SO to everyone, Merry Christmas, and drive safe where ever you are headed. And to Kristyn... please text me if this baby decides to come before the new year.. Iam thinking of u everyday!!!

Life

Well I have three kids under the age of 3.. and all I can say is life is SO BUSY... I don't have time to stop and think let alone remember half of the stuff that goes on in a day. Time flies by so fast, cause Iam feeding Boedy then he naps, then I play with the girls, feed Boedy, it's lunch time, diaper changes non stop.. nap time again, play with Allie, feed Boedy, make supper.. bath bed, feed Boedy... It's never ending is all I can say. Before I had him I looked at the clock alot during the day waiting for the moment Riley came home, now I am shocked when he walks through the door cause i can't believe the time.

It certainly has changed.. changed for the good yes.. but i just can't believe how much work it is, and probably a huge part is that there all so little and all so needy still. I went out today, just to my sisters, and getting them ready alone takes an hour I swear.. remembering everything and bundling, and carrying them each to the van. Iam tired, Iam worn out, and i constantly am going going at the house as well. All evening i clean, put the toys all back, do laundry.. dishes..ect.. Life sure has changed. He is only 2 weeks old, but it's feel like forever ago I had him.

Now about Boedy.. he is WONDERFUL.. PERFECT.. everything i hoped for. Yes I fell in love all over again, I want to hold him all the time, and kiss him, and look at him, and even when I go out to run a few errands, I miss him so much... He doesn't cry unless he is hungry or getting his bum changed. He is the perfect little boy..

The girls r good, busy as ever, Allie has been having her days and testing me in alot of ways, but i know thats part of growing up. Iam getting by each day, praying for strength and patience cause alot of days I feel i need it. I have been going through the blues alot still. Just so unhappy at times, and not sure why when I have such a wonderful family. But Iam coping, and getting through everyday. I hide my tiredness and look forward to each moment yet to come. I cherish these years, cause before i know it, they wont need me anymore, and i hate to think of that!!

Boedy Gavin Hannah

Well we had our son.. a shock to both of us, but such a wonderful shock it was. We cried many tears of happiness in that room and new our family was absolutely perfect in that moment. My water broke at 4:30 in the morning, and we arrived at the hospital at 5, girls in tow. Aubrie didn't want to be bothered cause she was still so tired, and Allie was oh so excited!! When we arrived I was checked right away to see how far along I was, and I was 6 cent. So i was well on my way, but honestly didn't want to suffer the pain, cause it was all in my back. So I opted for the epidural, which was heaven and made it all a breeze. At 10 I new something felt like it was ready, and when I told the nurse, she checked me and I was 10 cent. So I literally pushed twice and he was out. The cord was wrapped tightly around his neck that the doc couldn't even pull it over so he had to cut it there and blood squirted everywhere... I was still waiting and wondering at that moment what we had cause no one said, and finally after minutes, Riley said, "it's a boy", and we began crying together. It was an amazing moment, just like the last two were. We couldn't decide on a name for along time, but when we finally did we knew. Boedy Gavin, named after Riley's middle name, he weighed in at 7lbs 5oz, and 20.5 inches long. He was born at 10:12 in the morning, and he is a perfect baby. Recovery is going well.... i had the blues yesterday and cried alot most of the day, but that's also cause it was Allie's third birthday, and I just couldn't believe she was three already.

Life so far is great, he sleeps, eats, poops, and when he is awake he just looks around and listens for the girls. He barely moves and I don't understand where all those kicks came from inside..lol.. He is another angel sent to us, and i love him so much. I still can't believe I had a boy, and am getting so excited to go shopping for him, cause Iam sure enjoying all the cute little boy outfits. The girls love him to death, we spend many hours of the day taking turns holding him, and Aubrie does so well. She is very gentle and always asks.. "hold it"!! Allie always has to check and see where HER baby is..lol...

All in all, life is perfect right now. I have three wonderful little ones and feel so wonderful now that I can move around and bend over, and bath the girls, and climb my three flights of stairs without having to stop for a break. Life is perfect!!!
