Go Team Go!

Emma is now in Pom-Poms and is loving it. I love watching her. I enjoy watching her while she is in her element. The girls danced outside in the COLD and they were great.





Happy Birthday Boys!


Since Alex was just a few days old the boys' birthday was pretty low key this year. We celebrated with cupcakes that everyone helped make.

Brothers and Sisters


Now that Alex is here I have LOTS of "helpers." They all love to hold him and snuggle on him. I hope it lasts, but really know better!!



All of my boys together.

Baby Kiwi

December 4th was a wonderful surprising day for us. We woke early to get to the hospital for the induction of baby number five. I had my bags packed with my things and the items I would need for the precious little girl who would be joining the family sometime that day. We got to the hospital got all hooked up and waited.

It was around four-ish when the nurse checked my progress and told me that I was dialated to six, so we figured it would be awhile longer, but with in 20 minutes I was fully dialated and ready to have the baby. I barely pushed twice when our sweet little miracle was born, I couldn't wait to see what this baby looked like. I looked at Lee's face to see his expression and he was in shock! IT WAS A BOY!! I thought he was kidding, but no, my little princess turned out to be a PRINCE!

It took us a day or so to come up with a name for our little man. Riley suggested Kiwi, and for a (very) short time Baby Kiwi stuck. We finally decided on Alexander Gabriel Lee.

Alex was born weighing 7.8 lbs, and was 21" long. He has brown eyes and a head full of dark hair (although not as much as Jackson had)
