Happy Valentine's Day

When Ava was home a couple weeks ago I wanted to take some pictures of all the kids together for a cute Valentine's picture.  That never happens around here as Jimmer will never sit still long enough or he just gets mad at me for the thought of taking a picture.  I got some cute one's of the kids individually though.  Happy Love Day!!

Our beautiful Ava...she's growing up too fast!!

It went from bad to not too bad. 

Ava took this picture and it turned out the better than all of them.  I'm holding him, but I just did a little cropping and voila.   

Love this boy and his cheesy grins and rosy cheeks. 

These two like to cooperate and humor me!

The "successful" attempt at the dog pile picture.  haha

Party Time and Randoms

Shane celebrated his birthday 2 days before Carter, January 7th.  One more year until we celebrate the big 4-0.  Everyone knows that ice cream cake is the best around and even Carter thought that it was pretty tasty!  Never a dull moment with these little munchkins.  

My baby just turned 1!!  My options were a farm party or a bubble party and Jimmer's input was a cow party.  It didn't turn out exactly the way I wanted, but came together pretty good.  

He was a little unsure of the smash cake, but ended up indulging.  

The boys LOVE having Ava home!  She's such a great big sister.  They all enjoy playing together, reading stories, having tea parties and just goofing around.  When she's not here Jimmer is constantly saying, "I miss A".  It is the saddest thing as he's so distraught about it.  

Big boy car seat!

One happy little boy!!
