The past couple days...

What a natural!

Cashe "dribbled" the ball up and down the field... I think we have another soccer star in the family;)

Oh come on Daddy, can't you hold Piper too??!!

Where are the kids?

It has become a tradition for Blake and I to take a pic together on our anniversary... without any kids in the shot! I realized that it has seriously been a year since we have taken a picture together alone, haha:) We were invited to a charity dinner for a children's home and it happened to fall on our anniversary. So here we are all dressed up and ALONE (Piper is on the couch;)

PS. Aren't my shoes AMAZING! I seriously about killed myself and Piper several times walking in them but they look so great it just doesn't matter.

Anyway, its out 6 year anniversary today and I thought you might like to see a quick run-down of what has happened in that short time:

- 5 moves (2 states)

- 2 home purchases

- 2 college graduations

- 2 job changes (Blake)

- 1 dog (anyone want a dog??)

... Oh yeah, and 3 KIDS!

Seriously, we made it through these years and came out ok and I am convinced we can make it through anything now, haha! I am excited to see what the next 6 years throws at us (hopefully not another 3 kids;)

No need for words...

Sweet Sister

Belle loves to hold Piper and this morning she even sang to her...

Make me smile...

They can be monsters (my loving nickname for the kids) at times but they are so stinkin' cute!

P is for Piper

Well, last week was a little hectic. It was my first week alone with all three kids and Belle and Cashe both ended up with strep... YUCK! They are both doing well now though so hopefully this week is a little less eventful:)

I have to admit that going from 2 to 3 kids has been harder than I expected! Piper is great but poor Cashe doesn't know what's going on and is having to "grow up" a little faster than he is ready to. Every time I turn around he is up on the middle of the table, or crawling over Piper, or opening a closet door (yes he also learned that trick this week). My mom said I need to have a recording contstantly going of my voice saying "No Cashe, get down from there... Cashe, get out of there... Cashe, I said no!" Haha! That would definitely save me some trouble:) I am hoping that in a month or two he will catch on a bit and things can calm down again.

On the bright side, Belle has been such a big helper and loves having a baby sister. She's such a sweetheart:)

Anyway, here is a few pics of the sweet baby... I can't believe she is 3 weeks old already!

Sweet girl

Piper is two weeks old! She weighed 7 pounds 9 ounces today and is 21 inches long... thats a whole inch in two weeks!!

She has quickly become a huge part of our lives and our little family feels complete with her:) I am not sure how we lived without her...

Lucky Number 7...

Belle had her first soccer game today and she did great! They don't technically keep score but Blake is pretty sure her team won;)

She was adorable in her pink shin guards and oversized "jersey" and I think she got her foot on the ball once or twice!

Belle's Game Face

Trouble...

Cashe has not learned what the word "gentle" means yet. He is pretty oblivious to Piper so far but when he does notice her he wants to scratch her eyes out I think.

She always has one eye open when he is around;)

*Oh and the sweet little piggy pajamas Piper has on in this pic were Belle's when she was tiny:)

The Hat - Day 2

I just love this hat! Aunt Kristin made it for Piper and I just couldn't resist matching today's outfit to it. She's such a little doll!
