obsessed

Is everyone as obsessed with their babies as much as I am? There is seriously something about Brenner that I can not get enough of!!!! Maybe its his addictive smile or his bright blue eyes that are constantly bright and happy, or his perfectly cute face or his adorable laugh and super squishy chubby body, seriously the list just goes on and on and on. I can say I am so in love with my baby, he's perfect in every single way. He's bright and smart and could not be happier. Happy 3 Months Brenner!! 

Life is Good!

In my opinion life doesn't get much better than this! It amazes me every time i've had a baby how much joy they bring into your life, and how life all of a sudden feels so much more complete and perfect. Brenner is easily the definition of a perfect baby. He is SO happy, and bright I honestly can not get enough of him and his big smile! Not to mention the full on conversations he will sit and have with you, he lights up and laughs the whole time like your having a super funny conversation, its the cutest thing ever. Its been a bit of a rough time since having Brenner, the last 3 months have been very challenging, but looking at him and having him in our family id do it 100 times over just to have him here. He's worth every bit of pain and hard times, he's just so perfect!!! Happy 3 months to my beautiful baby, its true there is definitely something special about baby boys.

The girls favourite thing to do lately, they take like 4 baths a day in the jetted tub. Its became their swimming pool 

12 weeks and 17 lbs (17 lbs based on Eleni weighing herself and then holding him)

 The girls are a MILLION times better with Jordan around! Its like i've had completely different kids since coming to Newfoundland, they have been SO good!! They definitely need their dad!!!

 My little princess! and a princess she truly is. She will only wear dresses, loves jewellery and having her hair done and her nails done. She's completely opposite of Rylee in pretty much every way

 Naughty Naughty Naughty!! thats all I can say to this!!!! although its made him sleep 8 hours at night, so I guess its got its "positive" side too..

Rylee is Breners 2nd mommy!! she has been such a huge helper lately, and he just Loves her!! She would sit and hold him and carry him around all day if I let her.

Brittany & Steve

I'm pretty sure everyone would agree that this is a very good looking couple!! They definitely made taking pictures super easy.
It was a lot of fun to take their engagement pictures last night, and even though the sun wasn't co-operating with what I had in mind for them the beautiful area made up for it.

**I just randomly clicked on file numbers from the folder, so it was a surprise to me which ones got posted as well.. and I just looked up and saw that i am once again posting this to the wrong blog, oops!

Chub!

ahh I seriously can not get enough of my chubby baby! I still am in shock I have such a huge child, but I am loving his chubby body!!! the only problem is along with the chubby body comes the "fat baby" appetite, nursing every 2 hours is kinda annoying, its a good thing I love him as much as I do.

Its been 5 weeks, crazy hey? 5 weeks already! and in those 5 weeks he has gained a ton, he's already 12 pounds and lost way to much of his hair he came out with. But he is still as adorable as ever and to make it even better a week ago we got SMILES!! There is nothing better than being able to talk to your baby and have them look back at you and smile, it makes all the long nights, ok even the 2 hour feedings worth it! and NO its not gas.. i got that comment a few to many times after saying he smiled that early, I even got a little video to prove it 100% was NOT gas smiles

These are Brenners newborn pics I took, so he pretty much has doubled in size since I took them, but I haven't posted them yet on my Blog. I need to take some new ones of his chubby body that I love so much!!!!

So in the same post about my Chubby baby I thought id post Hailyns newest pictures. She has an obsession lately with playing "dance school" so she had picked out her own outfit (with help from Rylee) and was very proud of it, so we ran outside for 2 min and snapped a few pics. I thought they were so cute, cuz Hailyn is so dang cute, that I didn't even touch up or edit them at all. I need to register this child for dance class!!

My goal now is to get Rylee to let me take her picture so I actually have some to post of her..

Almost 3 weeks

I cant put into words how much I love my little baby boy! Brenner is amazing, and such a perfect addition to our family! He's the perfect mix of Rylee, Hailyn, Jordan and also Jared (he looks a lot like Jareds baby pictures do)- so needless to say he really is a mix of everyone.
After the hard pregnancy and stressful experience having him plus the after "recovery", I look back and realize i'd go through it over and over again just to have him here.

We couldn't love him more, there truly is something about baby boys that are super special. I really can't get enough of him. Plus the girls are amazing with him, I couldn't have been more blessed in that area. Hailyn is so easy going she could care less that he is here and not jealous in the least bit. She loves to give him kisses and asks to hold him once in a while and be my little helper when I need things for him. Then Rylee is the perfect mommy, she would sit and hold him all day long if she could and I swear he knows its her holding him, he usually falls right asleep and is so calm when she has him. They love their little brother, its so nice to not have any jealousy with him here. My girls have been amazing, its wonderful and a huge help!
The only thing that could make this perfect would be if Jordan didn't have to be in Halifax working, but i'm very proud of Jordan and the sacrifices he is making for our family. I have the hardest time being away from my kids for just a few hours let alone months, so I cant even imagine how hard it is for him to be gone, especially now with Brenner and how much babies change every week.
But were proud of him and thankful for all of his hard work. SOON the summer will be over and he will be back home, it truly is MUCH better having him here!

 you cant kiss Brenners cheek without him thinking he's getting food and trying to eat so we got a good kiss!

 He looks SO much like Hailyns baby pictures here
