Kids Day at the Bass Pro Shop

Today they had kids day at Bass Pro.

They had stuff for kids to do. Faith got to rock climb, they were taking the kids finger prints, you could fish in the pond. Also the fire department was there. We got the girls their own fishing pole, then went to try and catch some fish. While we had no luck with getting a fish, what we did catch was a great time! Here are some pics from our day at Bass Pro.

Today Audrey is 2 months old

Me just being the most adorable baby ever!

My how the time is already flying...Miss Audrey is 2 months old today..and growing so fast. Well if there was ever any concern with nursing, there is no more...look at this baby, does it look like she misses a meal?

This past month she has really started to come alive! Her new thing is her swing...she loves it~And we finally got her to take a bottle, for mommy that is...this week we are going to get dad to give her one. The girls have taken to her so well! Lauren was a tiny bit jealous in the beginning, but no more. She loves Audrey. They both love to kiss her little face. I started patty cake with her and she just puts on the biggest grin, and the girls love it when I do it, and they have even started to play it with her. Faith has learned to hold her! She just thinks that is the best thing. She likes to pick her up...i still have to watch her..I have to remember she is 5 and knows very little about just what babies can do.

Having three has been an adjustment, but not like I thought it would be, but better. I saw my old neighbor the other day and she just had baby number 3 (for those of you who might remember when we moved into our Broken Arrow house our neighbor was expecting and come to find out we had the same due date..I was prego with Lauren...anyways..we were talking and both agreed with 3, its just different..the first you try to be the perfect mom, with the second you are so overwhelmed with having two and trying to met every ones need, especially when they are close in age...then with number 3, they just seem to be more laid back...really what it is, is with number 3, you have learned..they will not break...crying whats that, you mean the noise the baby make...it has nothing to do with the baby, but you as a mom are just more laid back.

So there you have it! Life with three little girls for us has been pretty wonderful. We are so blessed to have 3 healthy, beautiful girls and thank God daily for the gift of being able to be called mom and dad...

Here are some highlights from Audrey's past month...

...just pure beauty...God's grace wrapped up in one little face...


I want my gammie, this thing is just looking at me...


suppose to be tummy time..looks like a great place to catch up on some beauty sleep!

Getting more beauty sleep...I am really into this sleeping thing


I think sleeping is a baby's best friend....

Just chillin in the swing...now this is life...

Giving daddy kisses...

Girlz

Hey I took some new pictures of Faith and Lauren...whatcha think?

I think I need to go to PH, picture holics...I just love to take pictures...

Especially of my girls...I want to capture every moment so when they are old we have some thing to look back on and smile.

Any how, the pictures of the girls by themselves are replacing the pictures of them in the living room...those pics were taken acrooss the street at bass pro last year, so it was time for a change!

Kitchen Bath

Miss Audrey got her first bath in the kitchen sink. She liked it, although I do think she likes the big tub with the bubbles better! But she liked this too!











I have to admit, that sometimes i just stare at her in amazment...I know this sounds crazy, but I do not feel like I have three kids...it is still settling in. I look at her and just fall so in love with her...you know you always wonder if you are going to have enough love to go around? I do not think its love I have to worry about, its time! I am still balancing or trying to balance to make sure each one of them gets all the time they need!

Happy Father's Day

Happy Fathers Day daddy love your girlz....

I just so happen to be married to the greatest Dad on the planet!



To all the dad's out there, hope you have a great one!!

Chunky Monkey

Miss Audrey is growing so fast...she will be 2 months next week but I betcha she weighs 13 1/5 pounds allready! Here are some cute pictures of her and her chubby little self! She is following in her sisters foot steps...Faith was the big one! At four months she weighed 19lb 14 oz...6 months she weighed 22lb 5 oz at 9 months she was 24 lb 7 oz.....we will see if Audrey out weighs Faith?

Look at the mountain top...i mean belly....gotta love those breast fed babies...they love their milk! I think rich milk runs in the family...my sisters little girl is 7 months and weighs 25lbs!

Would you like a turkey leg?

Chunky Monkey Ice Cream will never be the same!

What Faith and Lauren did this week

As you know, the pool has filled up the dayz so far this summer, but we are doing other things too! On Monday, I took the girls to Purple Glaze, it is a pottery store where the girls can paint an object of their choice. Faith choose to paint a horse, and Lauren a ballet slipper. The girls enjoyed going, especially since their pals Brooklyn and Grant were there...

Also on night they put on a "Show" for us on the stage...it was pretty cute. They made up a dance, played music and sang songs...busy little girls, even Audrey got to catch some of the show..

Eyes Like Moses

When I took Audrey in for her one month, her DR. was concerned about her eyes crossing a little too much, so off to the specialist we went....

The days between the appointments, we took the word, and stood on it...The bible talks about Moses who had great vision even at an old age..thankful God is not a respecter of persons...if Moses' eyes were strong even at an old age, then so will Audrey's...and the word says that by HIS strips we are healed...so we prayed over her and we have just been confessing the word over her...and thanking God she has strong healthy eyes...

....Audrey praising the Lord in her sleep.....

Well today we took her to the Dr and we got a great report. The doctor says her eyes look "wonderful" just where they should be for her age!

Audrey's eyes wonderfully made by God...

(I know the photo is sideways, but it kept uploading this way...if any one knows why please tell me...the photo is not this way in my albums...frustrating...)

The devil has really tried to attack this little girl with all kinds of aliments...and every time...we have stood on the word and seen God work....I do not know the plans for this little girl, but I know who does, and it must be BIG!

In the beginning, the doctor said I was miscarrying, that my levels were too low...so we stood on the word and 2 days letter, the levels more than tripled, then I had a lot of bleeding early on and once again, it was thought I would miscarry...I stood on the word, told the Devil just where he could go, and commanded him to get his hands off my daughter...I used my authority..and every time I would see the blood, I would just praise God that she is strong and healthy in a strong womb...and then the bleeding finally stopped..and I never had another problem....then they said that her left ventricle on her heart was not right, again we stood on the word, and at the next test, everything was wonderful! Now with her eyes, and once again we stood on the word and she is healed! It really moves me to see God at work! I am so thankful to be a child of God and KNOW MY AUTHORITY!

Smiley Baby part B
Here are some more pictures of little Audrey smiling...she is such a happy baby!




Audrey all smiles...this is such a great picture of her!
(Again, I know it is sideways, but I have tried and tried to get it to upload the right way and during upload it keeps turning...UGH!)

Fun Summer

That is just what the girls say when we get in the pool...the love it! I have to say, the kid in me is coming out and I find myself wanting to get in just as much as they do! I think if Faith could, she would swim from sun up to sun down! Lauren loves it too, but after a while she is done, let me rephrase that...after a lOOONG while...

Even dad gets in the pool...and he likes it too! The girls love it when he gets in. He picks them up and throws them in the pool...which is there favorite thing to do!

We are all starting to get a little tan...praise the Lord, it is embarrassing to say I am from Florida, yet look like an albino Oklahoman...

My hubby even worked on the yard around the pool. He put some nice stepping stones surround by rock and added some new plants around the patio...yeah! We even got some lights...one for looks and two the bugs...

Anyways here are some pics of the family enjoying the pool...Even little Tinkerbell went for a swim. It was so funny...she is fast on the land and sea...

Windy and Rainy

We had to get out so I put Audrey in some jeans and a hat...she was too cute to miss the photo moment...
