Is she....

...3 months?
6 months? 


9 months?
Or 12 months?

Its all so confusing because she is 3 months,
but by the size of her thighs and chins,
she fits into nothing marked 3 months.

SHE IS AmAzInG!!

We like to call her chubber lover.

It fits:)

Bird's the WORD!

Another awesome trip to Snowbird.  The kiddy hill is perfect.  Just look at the three amigos.  Shawn almost looks  like he is trying it out for the first time too.  HA HA HA!  He definitely wasn't though...and I have to say...for being a coach of older and more capable humans...he was extremely patient.  

I was there.
And here is proof.

Isn't she amazing.  Did this most the time.  What a trooper:)

This was Evans second time on the skis and he did SO good.  Here he is giving mom a heart attack.  As soon as Shawn let go of the rope, every horrible scenario went through my head of him crashing, or loosing control and zipping off down a cliff or straight into a tree...but he proved my thoughts wrong and did it.  I looked at Rach and said I could cry.  Honestly after the first attempt at taking him I thought his poor little knee knockin' legs would never let him do the pizza pie.  HE DID IT...and I was so so so proud!!

This is completely Raegans element.  No stage.  No onlookers.  Just her. On the hill.  At her own pace.  Doing it...
all. by. herself.
She is completely in love.  And so am I when I watch her.  Pure happiness. 
Big girl on the lift...
all. by. herself.
Did I say...this is her in her element?!

Evan...
Your a stud.
So are you dad.

Like father like son #1.

Like father like son #2.

Lovin life.  No worries in the world.  

Seriously...this little guy we like to call Lennon was the cutest little button out there on that big ol' hill.  We couldn't stop smiling.  He was in Heaven.

Isn't this lady a dream or what?!  Cutest pregnant dream too.  Here she is (you can't really tell by the pic) boosting Holden up a little off the ground with her knee...jammed into his rear.  He was just-a-danglin.  But happy with the view of the hill.  We laughed.

Here is that cute little button...just cruisin'.  He is so awesome.

This is Dad and Evan just starting out.  I pulled my camera out and heard Rachel busting up hard.  Then through much laughter she says...'Shawns more amazing than Evan!'  I died.  Look at that pizza pie!  He has it mastered.
Like father like son #3.
Priceless.
The things we do...
regardless of what we look like...
all in the name of fun...
FOR THE KIDS!

This is before any runs were made.  I think Shawn was mentally preparing...

And last but not least...
Their first date.
Although its a love/hate relationship...
THIS WAS LOVE!

All in all, the night skiing in the middle of the week was amazing...for all parties.
I wish we could bag school, work, and all responsibilities in life...
and just play!!

Unbelievable.

I guess when your done...
YOUR DONE!

This is a first.
And this is no act.
She was drooling.

I guess this happens when your 3 years old is trying to keep up with the 7 and 5 year old ALL. THE. TIME.

Bless her.

Cant get enough!

Mornings these days are so amazing. Not really.  Never have enjoyed the mornings, but obviously after having kids...I HAD to! Ive adapted to a functioning level (although not super chipper:), but something about this added lil' baby thrown in the mix of Evan and Mayci literally at eachother as early as 7am...along with getting Raegan ready for school (which is no simple task might I add!)...plus breakfast...dishes...blah...blah...blah...
Lets just say...
anxiety from the moment my toes go from bed to floor:)

But,
getting a smile like this in the morning...
makes it doable. 

And really...look at that FACE!!  I can't stand it! 
Loves her brother...and brother LOVES her.
Beautiful. 
Whats up mom?  Why so many pictures??

Watching Evan coax a smile out of his beloved baby sister is perhaps the cutest thing ever.  He is so so so so so sweet with her.  Really, truly...
Melts. My. Soul. 
These two are animals together!
Animals!

Look at the love.  I simply can't get enough.

Wesly
You are my calm to the storm.
Thank you.
I love you.

Ski Bunny

Why do these pictures make my heart sing??

Because soon you shall see....

That while Mayci made snow angels...and Wesly slept on my chest...

I was able to watch this!!!

And this!!!

I sat there, seriously, with a smile on my face the whole time.
To watch my first child experience something that I grew up LOVING to do...
priceless.

And the fact that she LOVES it...
joy.

I would watch Rae come down...with almost a tear in my eye.  And then I would catch Evan with my tearful eye...and laugh out loud.  He was either on the ground tangled up in his skis, or on the slope between Shawns legs tangled up in his skis.  Unfortunately this took quite a toll on Shawns old man back, but I got a real good laugh. I don't know how my dad did it.  We had to have been older because I remember it like it was yesterday.  I remember thinking, "how can my dad ski backwards?!  I can't even get my own skis straight!"  And the first time on my board, well lets just say I was old enough to cuss him out the whole way down...over...and...over...and...over again!  GOOD TIMES!!

What a stud.  Makes my heart so proud.

Poor guys.  Better luck next time...in 10 years!  HA!
