Quincy's blessing

Andy blessed our sweet baby girl a couple of weeks ago. It turned out perfect He did a wonderful job. I feel so thankful to have a hubby who holds the priesthood. I was so happy that all the family came up to Bear Lake. That was a four hour drive in one day! It was so nice to have everyone there!

LoVe HeR!!!!

We had pulled pork sandwiches at the luncheon. We had a ton of food!

Carter and Colton being big helpers! Thanks to everyone who came to suport us. We love you all!

Such helpers!



This is what I found today when I came down the stairs. Colby and Carter working together and attempting to change Brayden's diaper. Wow! A little too much help if you ask me! Such sweet little guys! 

Best buddies!

This is Wes and Brayden. Yes they are neighbors, yes they are best buddies, and yes they can sneak out of the house and play in the mud at any time! These two cute boys have way too much fun together! :)

No training wheels!

Colby and Carter learned how to ride their bikes without training wheels. It was actually hard for me to watch. Carter picked up on it right away and Colby did not. It broke my heart for him. He was trying so hard. Carter was riding all over the place and Colby was getting so frustrated. I don't want them to be compared to each other. It's so hard with twins. The very next day I saw one of them cruise by on their bike. I automatically thought it was Carter but it was Colby! He was so determined he went out and taught himself!

Way to go boys!!!!!!!!

Catching up...

Well I have alot of catching up to do. This fourth baby has pretty much put me over the edge! I feel so busy! A couple weeks ago my brother's wife Keri came and stayed with us to help me out while I am still recovering from having the baby. Aaron drove her all the way up here on a Sunday and came to get her on Thursday. I was sooo thankful to them for helping me out. She helped me with my kids, cooked, and cleaned up after everyone! All of that while being pregnant with her second child. What a saint!

This is Brayden and my nephew Carson. They were best little buddies all week and worst enemies all at the same time. They played together and fought a lot! :) I was really having a hard time before she came. I was feeling so guilty that I was putting too much pressure on Colby and Carter. I couldn't do much and every second I was asking them to help me with something. Then Andy would be at work or school all day, then come home and clean the messy house from the day. Keri was such a big help for us all. I even got mastitis in the middle of her being there and got very sick. Aaron and Keri really went above and beyond for us. Thanks guys! We owe you big time!

Logan

We stayed in a hotel in Logan the night before I had Quincy. We had to be at the hospital at 5:30 in the morning so we figured instead of driving down Logan Canyon really early we would stay over night. Andy's mom stayed with us and Andy and I snuck out bright and early while she stayed with the kids.

Being 9 months prego and all I wasn't up for much swimming. But the boys sure had fun!

Colby

Brayden Bug

The boys ended up staying a couple days with Andy's mom then with my parents in the same hotel while I was in the hospital. It was nice to have them all close. A big thanks to Grandma Gail and Grandma Susie and Papa Dennis for all your help with the boys.

Quincy Rae

Our sweet baby sister is here! Her name is Quincy Rae. She was born Sept. 2 at 8:03 a.m. She was 6 pounds 10 ounces and 18 inches long.

Can't get enough of this little angel. So far, she is such a good baby. I guess you need that with your fourth. She cries when she's hungry and that's it.

Andy and I bright and early at 5:30 in the morning!

Me right before taken back for the c-section. Pretty scary knowing they are about to cut my guts open! :) There was a student nurse in the operating room and she asked if we wanted her to take pictures. Well she did. Of the whole c-section! I won't post pictures though. It's pretty gruesome! I even have a hard time looking at them. It's weird when it's on yourself!

Andy is such a cute Daddy to a baby girl! He sure had me laughing hard the first time he changed her yucky tar poop diaper. He said, "I'm not used to these foreign parts!" ha ha

Colby and Carter giving the baby her first bath.

Brayden is obsessed with the "bee bee." He wants to hold her all day long!

Such good big brothers!

Colby taking care of Mommy!

Getting ready to go home! While at the hospital I was going for a walk and Colby looked at me and said "Mom didn't you have baby Quincy?"  I said "yeah." He said "Then why is your belly still like that?" ha ha Kids are so honest. Gotta love em! Another funny thing is while we were on that same walk one of the nurses looked and Brayden and asked him if he was the big brother. Both twins at the exact same time said, "No we are the big brothers. Brayden is just a baby!" So cute! The kids are adjusting well to the baby. i was worried about Brayden being jealous but he just can't get enough of her! I feel so blessed to have this precious baby girl in my life. My own baby girl! I just love her. I thank the Lord everyday for entrusting me with these perfect spirits in my home. I am one very blessed Mommy!
