We are a happy family!

So the last few weeks have been a blur! We are truly in survival mode here! My hat goes off to anyone who has 3 kids! It's been challenging but I think we can see the light at the end of the tunnel! Jack is doing great! He is over 7 lbs. now and can be such a sweet baby! He loves to be held and I am trying to just cherish that! He's finally taken a binky and that has been a big help! Hannah & Nick can't get enough of him! They adore their little brother! It might be a long summer but we are going to make it! Aww! All snuggled in!

We finally took a family picture that didn't include me in my hospital gown!

All 3 crazy kids!

Celebrating my 31st birthday at Red Robin!

Sweet sleeping baby Jack! What is that arm doing?

Oh, you guys are such a cute family!!! Hannah looks so big holding Jack--crazy. I hope things get easier for you soon; I don't know how people can manage with more kids than hands or adults.

Jack is so cute! Happy Birthday! I am sorry that I missed it. I hope you had a great day!

oh my goodness allison...so sorry I missed calling you on your birthday. I thought about you but failed big time! Jack looks like he is doing great and I'm so glad he is taking a binkie. You look awesome for just having a baby, but then again you looked good pregnant. Can't wait to meet Jack this summer.

You will survive. Let things settle down and than maybe it won't be so rough. These precious moments drift by so quickly.
You look great! I wish I could look that good after 2 weeks. Call me soon.

P.S. I didn't know Ben was going to see you last night. I would have given you the heads up. But in his defense I don't think he knew either.

So fun! I feel for you on the 3 kids thing. My youngest is 20 months old and there are days I'm not sure I'm going to make it! :) But I sure do love them!

Happy Birthday! Sorry I missed it! It was one of the last days of freedom - Oops I mean school. I was totally busy - but I did think of you. Hope it was a wonderful day. Hey we might come down to st. george around July 11. We would love to see you!

I love new pictures!! And hello?! Did you just have a baby, because you don't look like it! So weird to see your family of three...I'm so sad to not be there. Hope your birthday was happy and your family is adorable!

Such a cute family picture, we need to take one too! I guess I should get used to you always being one step ahead of me!

Very cute family picture! I am so glad I get to see you even if it is only once a week. You look great by the way. Jack is so cute, I am glad you are all doing well. We should play when I get back from SLC.
