Growing up... Update!

I love Daddy he loves me we love Carlie yes siree we all love Sarah Jane and Grady! We are a happy family!

Grady Augustus Drake at Three Months! His last checkup put him at 13lbs 4oz!

Thinking about smiling...

Smiling!

Super Smiley!

A lot of people, when they see Grady, say look it's a little Gus... I don't see it!

They are growing up so fast, I can hardly believe that I have three!

My cute boy trying to sleep/eat through his sisters fighting!

It was really only a matter of time.

Carlie is showing me her new crayons and coloring book... the old ones we well used and passed on to Sarah Jane to destroy!

A nice calm evening with Grady dozing in his bouncy seat and the girls coloring!

We had Emily and Kara (my sister Valerie's girls) over for a couple of nights while Valerie and Bryce went hunting... The girls had a lot of fun together! It's so fun to have cousins close!

This is often the situation I find myself in the morning... where is my spot?

Grady loves his bouncy seat and so do I!!!

Sarah Jane was a little tired of shopping at Boise Town Square by the end of the day... poor baby!

Happy Grady at two months, what a great smile!

Here are a couple of short video clips of Grady. In the first he is two months old and in the second he is three month (just took the video two nights ago!). We love our little boy he is so fun and sweet. He is so happy all the time!

Carlie started Pre-School!!

I can't believe that Carlie is in pre-school. She will be four soon(January) She is getting to be so grown up! My sisters/sisters-in-law are doing a pre-school together, there are seven little monsters... uh I mean cousins that are participating. Carlie is loving it so far and has retained the letters and numbers she has learned! Here are some picture on her first day of Pre-School! Carlie is such a character, we love her! Sometimes she is a spaz though...

Smile Carlie...


Look at me...


Look at me and Smile...


Sisters! They love playing together in fact it is hard to have one without the other, they keep each other entertained! I love my little girls!

Our little ones!

This is Sarah Jane "Helping"... isn't she sweet? YIKES


Grady was looking at me like... Hello are you going to save me or what?


Carlie came running in the other day to tell us that Sarah Jane was stuck in the "Stink", which was probably true about her diaper! Sarah Jane is our little climber as you can see, she is a little out of control!


Grady with a half smile... I will post a picture of him really smiling soon! He is such a sweet and happy boy!


This picture of Carlie is what I have to deal with every time the camera comes out, "Take a picture of ME mom!"



Grady in his new clothes from a fun shopping trip with Pamela! He is also showing off the quilt that Celeste made for him... isn't it beautiful!



Grady catching some ZZZ's under the blanket his Aunt Kristie made for him! Thanks I... uh I mean he loves it!
