HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Age Three and Four are exciting times in children's lives. Cousin Dillon, Auntie Carol-Ann, and Uncle Will came for a few days to spend birthday time with the kids. Of course it would not be complete until Grammie and Grampie came to make sure they had birthday cupcakes.
Isn't life funny how one minute you can be best friends and then each other's worst enemy the next?
For Asher and Eden's birthday Grammie and Grampie took all the kids for some Bounce U fun. A little place we stumbled upon that is full of big bounce activites.
One of the bounce houses had these big gloves. Of course they were as big as Asher was tall but I think that is what Asher liked about them most.
Dillion is such a ham! Every time you took the camera out to take a picture of him he would get as close as he possibly could and say CHEEEESE!
Rachel Marie Hewes came to us on the 30th day of January 2009. She made her arrival at 6:16 am. She wieghed 6 pounds 13 onces, and was 19 1/2 inches long.
Worlds best big brother
Asher LOVES being a big brother (to Rachel). He loves to help out, holding, feeding, kissing, and even changing diapers.
One of the worlds big sisters
And then there was Eden... I think she is a little jealous about not being the baby anymore. Eden likes to help out too, poking in the eye, hitting on the head, and shaking her sister. Plus I think that she just doesn't grasp the concept of gentle.
And now there are THREE
We do love our little ones no matter what. You do have to admit we make cute kids.
Long night
Being a dad has taught me more than any other experience that I have had, and I have had a few. The joy that is felt when you feel instant love. When a child is born you love them so quick you think "is it even possible to love so much so fast".
How could this not be worth it?
It was a very long night and the longest birth of all three of my children, but the result was a beautiful baby girl sent to us from our Heavenly Father. I didn't think that I could love anyone else but when I first saw this little girl I knew that I loved her and that the Lord loved me for trusting me with her.
"...he took their little children, one by one, and blessed them, and prayed unto the Father for them.... And he spake unto the multitude, and said unto them: Behold your little ones."
Asher had a big day on Sunday at church. He had his first day as a Sunbeam. It was also the first time that we have ever had a hard time getting him to go to Primary. Finally what got him to go was that his dad told him that they get to sing alot more songs in the big primary than in nursery. He is defenately his mother's son.
Eden also had a big day at church on Sunday, she is now in Senior nusery. Granted she spent most of the time in class with her mom. I think that the change in teachers was hard on her but who knows what runs through that little girl's head. She is defenately her father's daughter!
Trip to California
For Christmas this year our family went to California for ten days.
While we were there we were able to go visit a couple of the areas that Donnie served in on his mission.
We recieved the newest addition to our family before we came home, DAVIDSON, thank you Carol-Ann and Will.
The kids spent alot of time with their Grammie and Grampie and of course their cousin Dillon.
