2 and 4

Time goes by so fast doesn't it? My little baby Tristyn turned 2 on the 16th and Emerald's birthday is today...the 24th. Wow.

Here is Emerald when she was about 4 months old. She was such a happy, pleasant, easy going baby. I never really had any major problems with her. She was such a joy and a blessing to our family.

Here is a picture of Emerald when she was 1 year old. Her face is a little bit dirty, but Whoa...what a doll!

Here is my little monkey (her nickname ever since forever) when she was about to turn 2.

Here she is at 3...I love the color of her hair and eyes!

And this is my wild, crazy, so full of personality and sass today!!!

I remember being so nervous when I found out I was pregnant with Tristyn. I cried, and cried and thought to myself...."How can I have ANOTHER baby...I just had one and my marriage almost just ended!!" But after lots and lots of prayer I received a peaceful feeling that this little man was coming and he was supposed to come now. I remember like it was yesterday...I had just barely pushed him out and the doc put him right on my tummy and I looked into his big, big eyes and fell madly in love with him. The love flooded my body and I cried. I loved him so, so, so much. After the nurses washed him up they brought him over to Kevan and he just looked all around the room with his big huge eyes!! (all of my other babies fell asleep after coming out)

Another happy baby...here he is at about 4 months or so. About 5 months:)
About a 1 1/2 years here eating a corn dog..

Another one of 18 months...love this boy
Here he is today...the handsome little dude
He loves Indiana Jones....


It sure is a lot of work having a bunch of kids so close in age...but I prefer it this way...I think. They will all grow up together and be good friends.
