Mr. Golden Sun

We have been enjoying the sun here so much! We make our lunches, take them outside and spend the rest of the afternoon soaking up some warm rays. Thank goodness for chalk, bubbles, and bikes........

The girls LOVE bubbles... we go through a ridiculous amount of the bubbly stuff

Pretty Annie laughing and chasing bubbles

So I was taking pictures of all us girls together and right as I am snapping the photo, I look over at Macey and this is what I see.... lovey, so lady-like :)


I love this baby!! She is so sweet and I can't get enough of her. She is getting more into a routine and we have even seen a few smiles! Now, if I can catch one with the camera!

Annie LOVES hopscotch. We make crazy, bright patterns on the ground and she plays for days on it! She has pretty good balance, too!

Posing by the tree

We take watercolors outside and they paint on paper and on the sidewalk....it all washes away so why not :)
So cute huh!! I love this little face. Her sweet features are starting to show and I love seeing her grow!

Rex and I went out on a little date to dinner and we had a blast! Olivia slept the whole time in her seat, so we just laughed and enjoyed good conversation and food! Love dates like that :)

What is up......

Wow, time flies when you have a new baby. Especially a baby that likes to be held. When ever Olivia goes down for a nap, I use that free, precious, important time to do fun things like.... oh I don't know, laundry, house cleaning, dishes, errands, exercising, showering and playing with the girls (that last one really is fun:). So.... I am just now getting around to blogging. We have been adjusting well and I think that everyone is getting more settled. Nights are going great, Olivia just wakes up once, the weather is warming up and we are ready! {I bought a bag of water balloons yesterday and we are going to go crazy throwing them when it's nice and warm on Friday} Rex just celebrated the big 3-0 b-day and I planned a bunch of fun stuff for him to really make it count! Besides that, just enjoying family time which I love!!!

The girls got "egg" shaped chalk from the Easter bunny, so they are trying it out! The mostly play with them like they are baby birds though :)
Drawing beautiful art
Looking for airplanes, birds, cloud shapes, and warming their little faces in the sun
Olivia chillin in the shade.... but she doesn't want to miss out on the playing outside action
Rex and Olivia sleeping so sweet on the couch... it rough being a baby..... and a dad to 3 girls :)
The only not so good picture from Rex's b-day. I surprised him by inviting a group of his friends over to take him to see a movie. I bought TONS of candy and tossed all those guys out the door to go to a good action flick. Then I took Rex out to dinner, had friends over for cake and goodies and no b-day is complete without a birthday breakfast and gifts! I love you honey!!
Showing Olivia the ropes on cooking.... she likes being held so we make it work! I am training her young to LOVE cooking, just like me!

Our blessed little baby

My sweet baby was blessed at church this past weekend. Rex gave Olivia a beautiful blessing. She wore the little dress that my mom made for Annie 4 years ago. We had family here in town to celebrate and after church we had a yummy lunch, spent the afternoon outside in the sun, ate sugar cookies, and relaxed. It was wonderful! We love you Olivia!!

Our family
Me and my sweet baby.... she isn't wearing her blessing dress because she spit up all over it :)
Some more pictures of what keeps us busy..... Macey is supposed to be getting dressed but instead she is giving Olivia a massage.....
Then Annie, who is dressed, joined in on the fun :)
On Saturday Rex took the girls on a bike ride, they love going on rides with him, I have been told he goes fast....
Here is Olivia's one month picture! SO CUTE!!! I love that sweet face
I just thought this was funny, she is so tiny on the couch :)
