This little gem turned 3 years old last month! He is my best buddy, a true little angel. I love him from his head to his cute little toes. Happy Birthday, Chase!
Chase got his first bike, or 'mike' as he often says. He thinks he's one cool cat having a bike like his favorite person in the world...nope it's not his mommy...his daddy. They have the most perfect relationship. My boys have no idea how lucky they are!

Happy Easter! Chase was super lucky this year. Instead of a 'boring' (as Nate would say) basket, he got a wheelbarrow with his name in it! He loves pushing it around just like his Bop.

Dear makers of the Jumperoo....bless you!
These two little handsome devils are now 5 months old! I know everyone says it, but the time is flying by. I'm not going to lie, it's still really hard. Not sleeping is hard. I feel like I've tried every trick, read every book on getting your babies to sleep through the night, and I'm still failing. It's just not that easy when there are 2. But easy or not, it's so worth it. I have had A LOT of people say, 'I don't know how you do it' And I never really know what to say. The other day I heard the perfect response- 'I don't know how, I just know why'- I really don't know how I've gotten through any of the days, but when I look at these 3 little miracles, I just know why.

Our littlest loves were blessed on March 6th. We had such a special and I'm sure you can imagine crazy day. We were so thankful to all of our friends and family who came and shared in our special day-especially my mom and dad who flew all the way from Utah! After the babies blessing my lucky little Chase got to fly home with my parents where he was completely spoiled for a week until we made the CRAZY trip out with the twins. 1/3 of my heart went with him, and it was sooo hard...but during our flight I was so grateful he was already in Utah! We were quite a sight, but not half as much as we were on the flight home with 3 little ones in tow. When we finally arrived back home at the Manchester airport at 11:05 pm, we were getting looks from everyone that were either saying...'oh you poor things', or 'you guys are crazy'-I agreed with all of them, we were crazy!
Seeing my Gumpa made the craziness of our trip worth it! He is my Grandpa, who I simply adore. He has changed a lot since I last saw him in July, he thought I was my sister, and he was very confused. He wasn't his normal smiley self...until I brought the twins to meet him. He lit right up, just how I remember him. I am so grateful he was able to meet them, and I have the memory of seeing him smile.
This beauty was the reason we made the trek across the country. Michelle is Nate's baby sister, and as far as I'm concerned my baby sister too. I love this lady! Her new hubby, Austin (sorry I don't have a pic of you) is one lucky fella.
Brrrr.....
