Family pictures






I can't say this enough: If you live in the South Puget Sound PLEASE get your pictures taken my one of my best friends, Linnea. Here is the link to her website linnea. You will not be disappointed. :) Thanks Linnea!

Fall updates

Finn is loving preschool this year. Here he is at the pumpkin patch, waiting patiently to get his name on the pumpkin he picked out.

Mack - Attack continues to live up to his name!
Shaun's 30th birthday celebration. (Actually this is our mini-celebration, we got to travel to Las Vegas in September. Lots of fun!)

Thanksgiving with Mom and Natalie (David's new wife - love her!)

Don't be deceived, this turkey may look beautiful, but it still needed another 2 hours to cook. Next year . . .





Walking just before his birthday!


sorry it's sideways

7 months


Mack-attack turned 7 months last week and boy did he hit us with a few surprises! He's been scooting around on his tummy for the past month or so but started crawling everywhere within the past 2 weeks. And FAST! We were not ready to baby-proof this early - Finn didn't crawl till 8.5 months - but we are in line to get those baby gates up! Then we discover after a few fussy, sleepless nights that he just got his 2 front teeth. Yikes! Poor guy wasn't doing so well but is feeling much better after they broke through.

As if that wasn't enough, Mack also learned how to pull himself up and 'cruise' along the couch. He's pulling up on everything he can find. I didn't realize how determined he would be to keep up with all-things-Finn! :) We love him but boy are we tired!

Other than that, Finn is having a great summer. He's becoming quite the swimmer and having a blast visiting friends and family. He's very social and loves to be with people. Every morning the first thing he asks me when he wakes up is: ' Mom, are we going somewhere?' Evidently Mom is not exciting enough. :)

Shaun and I are attempting to keep up with 2 crazy boys! You may see us around, we are the couple with smiles on our faces but tired, glazed-over eyes.

Happy Summer!

Starting Over

Welcome to my new blog! I decided that instead of chronically the lives of our family (yawn) it would be way more fun to tell you all about the adventures I have living in a house with all boys. For example, stories such as the time my 3 year old decided to eat the entire wrapper off of his cupcake. Or the time my 4 month old blew out so many outfits in 2 hours that I had to dress him in my older son’s t-shirt so that he would not freeze on the drive home. Then there is the time my husband decided to hold me down and spit water in my ear... and the time my oldest son threw up his entire strawberry milkshake on our road-trip home from California. And the list goes on... and on... and on...


Being that God decided to bless me with so many wonderful boys I cannot complain. The joys are just as exciting as the trenches. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
