Jacob the little kid

Jacob is becoming a little kid, which also means our relationship is changing. He doesn't seek out the cuddle time or need the say things as the other two anymore. I see though he still needs the cuddle time and extra little love but is too busy during the day doing his own thing. I need to find the way to get him the attention he needs in a new way. The stages of life are moving too quickly for me.

Ginkgo Petrified Forest

Our hiking trip at the Ginkgo Petrified Forest. I have to say our guys are troopers. Not only will they go on an hour hike when their 3 and 4 but have a great attitude about it. During this hike the wind was unbelievable. It was blowing so hard we were being blown all around, ok maybe just Jack. But because of the 30 mph winds our camping trip was cut short, since no one wanted to be outside.

Jack Man

My Jack Man is so sweet. He is the sweetest little guy ever. I was holding his hand today and noticed his little wrists. They were so small and delicate. Just a baby's wrist really. I was wondering how long before their not like that. He just such a cutie.

Kids and babies

Well today I am 33, no big deal about that. What amazes me is that Jacob is 4, Jack is about to be 3 and Amelia 1. Jacob and Jack are so far away from being babies now. Jacob is a full fledged kid now and with Jack being almost 3 Amelia is my only baby left. She is walking so good now, even almost running everywhere. When I look at her I am amazed that our family is still in the baby phase of life but also a little sad and relieved that we are growing out of it into a new phase of childhood. Amelia is so precious, such a good happy baby. She gives so much expression through her facial expressions, there is no questioning what kind of mood she is in, or what she wants. As with all my kids I want to enjoy every moment of her growing up.
